Radu Cotescu created SLING-8943:
-----------------------------------
Summary: The Sling API ObjectConverter does not correctly convert
JCR values
Key: SLING-8943
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-8943
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Bug
Components: API
Affects Versions: API 2.21.0
Reporter: Radu Cotescu
Fix For: API 2.21.2
SLING-8116 delegates value conversions to the
{{org.osgi.util.converter.Converter}}. However, JCR values will be wrongly
processed by the {{Converter}}, since it will first convert them to maps and
then return the map's key if the key's type is the same as the conversion type.
For JCR values, the Map's keys will be the value's public method names, whereas
the values will be the invocation of said methods. This is definitely not the
behaviour we want.
The simplest solution would be to optionally import the {{javax.jcr}} API and,
if present, add some custom rules based on {{javax.jcr.Value}} into the
{{Converter}}.
