bq. because it's painful to have the API evolve
Yeah always a pain. One possibility I guess is having two kind of converters
and call one after the other but yes never nice to have to support the one you
don't want people to use anymore.
Thanks for taking this into consideration !

> Key: VELOCITY-892
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-892
> Project: Velocity
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Engine
> Affects Versions: 2.0
> Reporter: Thomas Mortagne
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 2.0
>
>
> I was happy to see that method arguments conversion has been added to 2.0 so
> that I can remove the uberspector we have on XWiki side but unfortunately
> ConversionHandler is limited to classes which is way too restrictive for us
> (for example if the parameter type is List<String> it won't do the same thing
> than if the type is List<Integer>).
> Our uberspector can be found on
> https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-commons/blob/master/xwiki-commons-core/xwiki-commons-velocity/src/main/java/org/xwiki/velocity/introspection/MethodArgumentsUberspector.java
> to see what we do exactly.
