----------------------------------
> Some of the converters ignore the passed in target type
> -------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: BEANUTILS-446
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEANUTILS-446
> Project: Commons BeanUtils
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: ConvertUtils & Converters
> Affects Versions: 1.8.3
> Reporter: Oliver Heger
> Fix For: 1.9.0
>
>
> Many converter classes derived from {{AbstractConverter}} ignore the target
> type in their implementation of {{converterToType()}}. They just perform a
> conversion to their default type.
> Depending on the way converters are registered, this may not be a major
> problem, but it is inconsistent. In theory it can lead to unexpected data and
> ClassCastExceptions after a successful conversion.
