Well, so here 2 tests, hope it is what you meant:
-the first uses ConvertUtils and passes
-the second uses BeanUtils and fails
public void testConvertUtilsItself() throws Exception{
String authorsAsString = "First,Second";
Object result = ConvertUtils.convert(authorsAsString, new
String[]
{}.getClass());
String[] authorsAsArray = (String[]) result;
System.out.println("Array size: "+ authorsAsArray.length + " |
content: " + Arrays.deepToString(authorsAsArray));
assertEquals(2, authorsAsArray.length); // assert 2 authors: OK
}
public void testBeanUtils() throws Exception {
Book book = new Book();
BeanUtils.setProperty(book, "authors", "{First,Second}");
String[] authorsAsArray = book.getAuthors();
System.out.println("Array size: "+ authorsAsArray.length + " |
content: " + Arrays.deepToString(authorsAsArray));
assertEquals(2, authorsAsArray.length); // assert 2 authors:
FAILS
}
In both cases the setter whose parameter is a String[] is called, in
the first case correctly passing a 2 length string array {"First",
"Second"}, in the second case a 1 length string arrat
{"First,Second"}.
I am really not an expert of the commons-beanutils but those 2
different beahviours seem a little strange to me.
