DataConfiguration.get() cannot handle a trivial conversion ----------------------------------------------------------
Key: CONFIGURATION-487 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-487 Project: Commons Configuration Issue Type: Bug Components: Type conversion Affects Versions: 1.8 Reporter: Oliver Heger A call to {{DataConfiguration.get()}} eventually invokes the {{PropertyConverter.to()}} method. Here a number of supported data types are checked and corresponding conversions are done. However, the case that the value does not need to be converted at all - because it already has the expected type - is not taken into account. This is especially a problem for string values: there is not conversion to string, so the get() method fails even if the value is already a string. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
