Okay, then, no, you can't directly because the only things HTTP carries are strings. But you can intercept the request in your action form, type-cast the returned String into your custom type and pass it to your ActionForm. Or based on the returned String, create a new MyClass( someValue ) and pass that to the appropriate setter in your ActionForm.
