Niall Pemberton resolved BEANUTILS-285. --------------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed Fix Version/s: 1.8.0 I have added new BeanUtilsBean (BeanUtilsBean2) and ConvertUtilsBean (ConvertUtilsBean2) implementations which take full davantage of the improved Converter implementations. The default behaviour is compatible with BeanUtils 1.7.0, but these new implementations can be configured by calling BeanUtilsBean.setInstance(new BeanUtilsBean2()). http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=rev&revision=552381 Closing this as resolved > Consider options for BeanUtils compatibility in light of Conversion > improvements > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: BEANUTILS-285 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEANUTILS-285 > Project: Commons BeanUtils > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: ConvertUtils & Converters > Affects Versions: 1.8.0 > Reporter: Niall Pemberton > Assignee: Niall Pemberton > Fix For: 1.8.0 > > Attachments: betwixt-beanutils-gump-fix.patch > > > The Conversion improvements associated with BEANUTILS-258 potentially create > compatibility issues - this was highlighted by Betwixt's tests failing > recently in the gump run - see http://tinyurl.com/2mxbv8 for more details. > Quite a bit of effort has been put into making the new conversion facilities > as painless as possible for existing users.
