Modified: beanutils/src/java/org/apache/commons/beanutils
ConvertUtils.java
Log:
Make the implementation of ConvertUtils.convert(Object) use the registered
Converter for java.lang.String instead of just doing a toString() operation.
This allows applications to plug in custom Object->String conversion
capabilities, although such a Converter would need to handle *all* required
conversions, instead of just one. The default implementation continues to
use toString(), preserving backwards compatibility.
