> DataConfiguration.get() cannot handle a trivial conversion
> ----------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CONFIGURATION-487
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CONFIGURATION-487
> Project: Commons Configuration
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Type conversion
> Affects Versions: 1.8
> Reporter: Oliver Heger
> Assignee: Oliver Heger
> Fix For: 1.9
>
>
> A call to {{DataConfiguration.get()}} eventually invokes the
> {{PropertyConverter.to()}} method. Here a number of supported data types are
> checked and corresponding conversions are done.
> However, the case that the value does not need to be converted at all -
> because it already has the expected type - is not taken into account. This is
> especially a problem for string values: there is not conversion to string, so
> the get() method fails even if the value is already a string.
