I think the problem is that you do not have a type converter for
Platform.
When you map checkboxes to a Collection<T>, Stripes tries to add the
values
to the collection, converting each value to T.
Since there is no TC for Platform, the last resort for Stripes is to try
a (String) constructor, which it found and called (much to your
surprise;)
and it throws an exception if there is no such constructor (the
exception
you received when you removed the String constructor).
A simple TC that converts the String id to a Platform will solve the
problem, or you can use indexed properties with a List<Platform>.
Hope that helps.
Cheers,
Freddy
