thanx

what about using getConvertedInput and getRawInput rather than directly using 
the variables?

i was just looking at that. i think we messed up a little bit there. now that getinputasarray() is public i made getinput() go through that instead of request parameters directly.

    i noticed that there is an inconsistency (in my view) in how input
    is handled:
    there's Component.getInput()
    then FormComponent.inputAsStringArray ()
    which is used to set
      convertedInput - by convert()
    and
      rawInput - by inputChanged()

    which are used all over the place. for example, getValue returns the
    rawInput if it was set and getModelValue otherwise (which, btw, uses
    the converter directly, rather than calling convert()). this may
    cause surprises.

    for convertedInput, i think it should be considered a caching value.
    the method getConvertedInput() should check it, if it is null, it
    does the conversion and sets it. it then returns it. calling
    'convert' explicitely from other places is not needed. whoever needs
    a converted input should call getConvertedInput.

    i don't know about rawInput, and why it is used, so i can't comment
    much, but i also think it should be used as cached value. it seems
    odd though, that getInput is not 'raw' enough.

    of course inputChanged should just invalidate the caches.
