             Summary: TypeConversion annotation support improvement
                 Key: WW-3871
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-3871
             Project: Struts 2
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Plugin - Convention
    Affects Versions: 2.3.4.1
            Reporter: Pavan Ananth


The annotation support for TypeConversion in Struts 2 is too literal an 
interpretation of the XML support. For instance, I am required to supply this 
if I have choose the CreateIfNull feature at a property level :

@TypeConversion(key="CreateIfNull_users", rule=ConversionRule.CreateIfNull, 
value="true")
List<User> users;

Given that the rule is CreateIfNull, the key can be constructed implicitly 
using property name - why is it asked of an user to type in the full key. 

This holds good for the other supported ConversionRules as well
