This is fixed in the latest release -- but you have to use the version of Ognl that ships (2.6.3-modified).

This raises an issue I've had with the ognl conversion. Is there a way to make it so that conversion errors don't throw an ugly servlet error, but rather add an action error to the action? Maybe through an interceptor? I'm still having problems with unsupplied dates b/c I haven't heard of the OGNL null value fix coming through yet, and every time I don't put in a date, I get the standard servlet error, which goes completely outside of any error handling framework I try. Note that my action code has error trapping and attempts to show the proper messages, but the OGNL type conversion errors are being thrown at some level outside of this, most likely in something like the parameter interceptor. Ideas? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Patrick Lightbody Sent: Friday, November 21, 2003 9:20 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [OS-webwork] how do i change the error message for badly inputted fields? The problem is that type conversion is failing when you from "" -> long, so we're reporting the error and then returning to our modified Ognl new Long(0) -- AFTER reporting the error. Should we assume that this kind of type conversion is not an error? How do we differentiate from this type conversion error and others (such as a date format)? Should we report type conversion errors at all, or leave that entirely to the validation rules? -Pat -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jason Carreira Sent: Thursday, November 20, 2003 7:32 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [OS-webwork] how do i change the error message for badly inputted fields? Ok... Sounds like we need to revisit the "" type conversion handling...
