seems to be some confusion with this, can someone post what it currently works like in ww1 and how its supposed to in ww2 (same as ww1, for backwards compat i assume..)

so say I have foo.action with bar string property

what should bar be when i submit an action like foo.action?bar=

what should bar be when i submit an action like foo.action

this needs to get put on the wiki somewhere too

oh and for primitives too say bar is an int, would foo.action and foo.action?intBar= and foo.action?intBar=0 all set intBar to 0 ?

In WW1.3 and 1.4 a string parameter that is empty will set the string property to the 
empty string. Not null.
If your program choose to interpret this as null that is up to you. How can you 
otherwise see the difference between a parameter that is not sent in at all and one 
that is sent in but is empty?

IMO it is essential that is is NULL. This has been a problem with WW 1.2.
and has
been fixed in 1.3. It's perfectly legal for a String to be null.

If WW2 handles this as an empty String, it's a bug.



Hi,

When a form field (single textfield) is not filled, the request param is
an
empty string, which translates to an empty string array
(ParametersInterceptor), but my property setter is called with an empty
string. Should't that be null?

Cheers,
Mathias
