Hello, In my company's internal CMS, we are implementing two new asset types, Videos and Playlists (collections of Videos). In the Video UI, the user designates which Playlists are to be associated with a given Video, and these values are posted on save via an array called "playlists" which contains the UIDs of each Playlist. These are represented as an ArrayList<Playlist> in the Video POJO.
We have implemented a PlaylistConverter to convert each String UID to a Playlist instance (and back), and going off of http://struts.apache.org/2.1.8/docs/type-conversion.html#TypeConversion-CollectionandMapSupport, added Element_playlists=[converterpackage].PlaylistConverter to Video-conversion.properties. Save was not committing and there seemed to be some conversion error, so I stepped through the conversion process to try and determine what was going wrong. Everything seems to be fine at the Collection level; it properly determines that the toType of the collection is List and the memberType is Playlist. However, when XWorkConverter.getConverter() tries to find the converter for the individual members, even though Element_playlists=class [converterpackage].PlaylistConverter is present in the mappings, the property String passed in is still "playlists" instead of "Element_playlists" and thus it does not hook up the playlist ID with the converter and falls back to the default converter (which cannot handle it and is what is raising the error). Any guidance as to what could be going wrong here would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much, ~~Scott PS--If it's useful, our system depends on the following libraries: ognl-3.0.jar struts2-core-2.1.8.1.jar xwork-core-2.1.6.jar
