I posted the improvement request XW-105 http://jira.opensymphony.com/secure/ViewIssue.jspa?key=XW-105, that asked for converters are retrieved by inheritance. I resolved it and attached a patch to the jira issue.
Previously, you had to write in your xwork-conversion.properties : java.util.Date=com.uniclick.xwork.converters.DateConverter java.sql.Date=com.uniclick.xwork.converters.DateConverter java.sql.Time=com.uniclick.xwork.converters.DateConverter java.sql.Timestamp=com.uniclick.xwork.converters.DateConverter With my patch, a single line is enough : java.util.Date=com.uniclick.xwork.converters.DateConverter I'av also added the ability to retrieve any interface converters. You just have to declare one converter for an interface, and all of its implemented classes will be converted with the declared converter. com.uniclick.myproject.EntityInterface = com.uniclick.xwork.converters.EntityConverter And if a special implemented class need its own converter, just declare it in the xwork-conversion.properties, it will override the interface converter. com.uniclick.myproject.EntityInterface = com.uniclick.xwork.converters.EntityConverter com.uniclick.myproject.SpecialEntity = com.uniclick.xwork.converters.SpecialEntityConverter Could this improvement be included in the next beta ?
