or wrappers (like Double instead of double). That works fine with BeanUtils as well...

Argggghhh I'm just dense as three inch hard wood... I had been converting an existing system over to maverick and copied the existing beans into controller/models. Look at these setters/getters: protected double term = 0d; public void setTerm(String value) { this.term = stringToDouble(value); } public void setTerm(double value) { this.term = value; } public double getTerm() { return this.term; } Switch to Strings only and everything works fine. Bloody obvious. :-0 <nationality mode="Australian"> Whaddareyer? An idyut, arnt yer? </nationality> Sorry to bug anybody...

Hiya, Just started using maverick. Luv it. Gotta slight problem and feeling I'm going mad. I think I've got it wrong about how you extend controllers. I have this app I'm building, and have a problem where the setters for form variables are not being called. I just know I'm doing something wrong, but can't see where, and I've re-read the manual supplied (thankyou guys) and studied the 'pig' with no luck. I've got cut-down code below and would love any help people can give me: classes: public class ControllerErrorable extends ThrowawayBean2 { ... hasErrors, getErrors etc... } public class Menu extends ControllerErrorable { ...setters and getters for some menu stuff... protected String perform() throws Exception { super.perform(); ...other stuff } } public class Calculator extends Menu { ...setters and getters for special calculations... ...and also: public void setTerm(String value) { System.out.println("Hey! How come I'm not being called?"); this.term = stringToDouble(value); } protected String perform() throws Exception { super.perform(); ...other stuff } } maverick.xml: <command name="calculator"> <controller class="com.dcg.ctl.Calculator" /> <view name="success" path="tools/calculator.jsp"> <transform path="outerPageWrapper.jsp"/> </view> </command> tools/calculator.jsp: <form blah blah> ...other input... <input type="text" name="term" size="4" maxlength="4" value="<c:out value="${model.longTerm}"/>" /> ...submit... </form> I must be doing something seriously wrong here, because when I call 'calculator.m', the tools/calculator.jsp runs ok. I fill in a value for the input field 'term', and click submit. The 'Menu' class appears to have it's setters and it's perform() called fine. What doesn't seem to be happening is the call to setTerm(String value) within the Calculator controller. I iterated over the Request and get this: (iterating over the request parameters) 12:48:23,579 INFO [STDOUT] [product] == [bnpl] 12:48:23,579 INFO [STDOUT] [period] == [0] 12:48:23,579 INFO [STDOUT] [amount] == [0] 12:48:23,579 INFO [STDOUT] [action] == [obq] 12:48:23,579 INFO [STDOUT] [deposit] == [] 12:48:23,589 INFO [STDOUT] [term] == [36] <<=== 12:48:23,589 INFO [STDOUT] [apr] == [] (then called getAction() and getTerm() deliberately within perform() within the Calculator class) 12:48:23,579 INFO [STDOUT] action==[obq] 12:48:23,579 INFO [STDOUT] term==[0.0] <<== So 'term' is being sent through. I'm stumped and feeling a tad dim. Can anyone help?
