http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39477 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2006-05-11 04:40 ------- The problem is that if your target is String, which is a sort of catch-all target, you may have both numbers and dates that need to be converted to a String. I think the primary use case that was envisioned for BeanUtils was to copy *from* Strings *to* specific types. However, I've found it quite common that I want to prepopulate an ActionForm from a business object, which means I'm copying all the various specific types to Strings. If there are numbers and dates, they'll need different formats. I'll work on putting a junit test together for it -- may not get to it until this weekend.
