> Indexed List Setters no longer work
> -----------------------------------
>
> Key: BEANUTILS-465
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEANUTILS-465
> Project: Commons BeanUtils
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: ConvertUtils & Converters
> Affects Versions: 1.9.2
> Reporter: Daniel Atallah
> Attachments: BeanUtilsTest.java
>
>
> After upgrading to commons-beanutils 1.9.2 from 1.8.3, I ran into a bug where
> indexed List setters no longer work.
> Per the documentation at:
> http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-beanutils/javadocs/v1.9.2/apidocs/org/apache/commons/beanutils/package-summary.html
> " As an extension to the JavaBeans specification, the BeanUtils package
> considers any property whose underlying data type is java.util.List (or an
> implementation of List) to be indexed as well."
> This no longer appears to be an accurate statement.
> The cause appears to be more strict validation in both
> org.apache.commons.beanutils.converters.StringConverter.convertToType() and
> in org.apache.commons.beanutils.converters.AbstractConverter.
> There is now an explicit cast to the target type, which throws an Exception
> instead of the previous behavior of simply returning the input value
> unconverted.
> I'll attach a test case that works with 1.8.3, but no longer works with 1.9.2.
