I don't think this is a bug. Because the basic idea of WEB app is: everything is passed as String.
Actually, there is a special layer in struts2 for data conversion. Your action may take int/long/boolean/date or something else as it's parameters, but all the original request parameters are String, and they are converted to appropriate data type by struts2 automatically. See: http://struts.apache.org/2.2.1/docs/type-conversion.html So, if param tag convert your parameter into String, I don't think this acting is incorrect, because the Action which receive this parameter should take the responsibility to convert it from String to something it need. In your case, your are calling an action from some action else. But think about calling it from the client side (for example: in browser), how could you pass an object instance as parameter? The only thing you can pass is String. So, my suggestion is: (1)Don't use an object instance as the parameter. Use the object id (can be int, string, and so on) instead. And in the action, load the object by id If you worry about the performance issue caused by object loading, you can use cache. OR (2)If your action will be accessed from other actions only, but never be called from the client side. Then you can delete the parameter from the action. Use request (or session) attribute instead. Before calling the action, put the object into request (or session) attribute. And in the action, load it from request (or session) attribute. 2010/11/17 Raj Nagappan <r...@velocitylabs.com>: > I did some experimenting with this by removing the lazy load and putting the > actual object directly on a property in the action class.
