Carsten Ziegeler commented on SLING-522:
----------------------------------------
The problem I see is that even Jackrabbit does not respect the type information
in these cases. So I think this should be fixed in Jackrabbit (if at all).
Therefore the only solution I see is the type hint.
> Default POST Servlet writes single-value property even though node type
> mandates multi-value.

> Key: SLING-522
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-522
> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Servlets Post
> Affects Versions: 2.0.1
> Reporter: Julian Sedding
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.0.1
>
>
> If a JCR node-type defines a multi-value property (e.g. String[]) and only a
> single value for this property is posted, the property will become
> single-value (e.g String). The POST Servlet should check, if the property is
> multi-value and respect that. Otherwise, any code reading the property value
> would need to check, whether it is multi-value or not and handle both cases.
> It might even be beneficial to force a multi-value property, if there is no
> node-type that defines it. This would provide for better control of
> unstructured data.
