Excellent, thanks again! If you'll permit me one last question? :)
I have a String[] field "certs" on the bean I'm populating, and I have a
List in the object trying to populate it. I've tried:
PropertyUtils.setProperty(obj, "certs", ((List)fieldValues).toArray());
...but that gets me a java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: argument type
mismatch. How does one populate an array? And specifically, from a List?
I guess the setCerts(String[] vals) method doesn't match up with the
Object[] that toArray() returns...
<snip/>
Have you tried:
((List)fieldValues).toArray(new String[0])
which offers control over the runtime type of the returned array, here
an array of Strings?
