Lukasz Lenart updated WW-3730:
------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 2.5
Possible change can break backward compatibility
> action tag accepts only String arrays as parameters
> ---------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: WW-3730
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-3730
> Project: Struts 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Plugin - Tags
> Affects Versions: 2.2.3.1, 2.3.1, 2.3.1.1, 2.3.x
> Reporter: Pavel Kazlou
> Fix For: 2.5
>
>
> {{org.apache.struts2.components.Component}} accepts arbitrary objects as
> parameters:
> {code}
> public Map getParameters() {
> return parameters;
> }
> ...
> public void addParameter(String key, Object value) {
> if (key != null) {
> Map params = getParameters();
> if (value == null) {
> params.remove(key);
> } else {
> params.put(key, value);
> }
> }
> }
> {code}
> But {{org.apache.struts2.components.ActionComponent}} explicitly casts all
> his parameters to {{String[]}}:
> {code}
> protected Map<String,String[]> createParametersForContext() {
> Map parentParams = null;
> if (!ignoreContextParams) {
> parentParams = new
> ActionContext(getStack().getContext()).getParameters();
> }
> Map<String,String[]> newParams = (parentParams != null)
> ? new HashMap<String,String[]>(parentParams)
> : new HashMap<String,String[]>();
> if (parameters != null) {
> Map<String,String[]> params = new HashMap<String,String[]>();
> for (Iterator i = parameters.entrySet().iterator(); i.hasNext();
> ) {
> Map.Entry entry = (Map.Entry) i.next();
> String key = (String) entry.getKey();
> Object val = entry.getValue();
> if (val.getClass().isArray() && String.class ==
> val.getClass().getComponentType()) {
> params.put(key, (String[])val);
> } else {
> params.put(key, new String[]{val.toString()});
> }
> }
> newParams.putAll(params);
> }
> return newParams;
> }
> {code}
> So I can't pass arbitrary objects directly to action using syntax:
> {code}
> <s:action name="myAction"><s:param name="customObject"
> value="customObject"/></s:action>
> {code}
> without conversion customObject->String->customObject.
