http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=32496 Summary: Converters should really be final? Product: Commons Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Bean Utilities AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi! I'm using BeanUtils to copy properties from one bean to another. When it copies from String to boolean it should know that S means true ('sim' = 'yes' in portuguese) and N means false ('não' = 'no' in portuguese). So I was wondering to extend the BooleanConverter to use the existing functionality adding one more check as specified above but it's not possible. I don't want to recompile the entire bean-utils package as I want to be free to upgrade to new releases without worry. And I don't want to do what I'm doing now: I copied the entire BeanConverter logic, adding the new chars to the If statement. So what I'm asking to remove the final qualifier from the converter classes so they can be subclassed. If needed I can create the patches, just let me know.
