Hi, While trying to port Cedric Dumoulin's Components library to the latest (5/6/2001) Struts, I've found a few BeanUtils methods have vanished. In particular: BeanUtils.filter(value); BeanUtils.getScalarProperty(bean, property); Having a poke in the Struts source, it seems: - the filter() method has been moved to ResponseUtils. - the get*Property methods have vanished, with no replacement even in jakarta-commons/beanutils. The relevant CVS log where all these changes happened is: % cvs log src/share/org/apache/struts/util/BeanUtils.java .. ---------------------------- revision 1.28 date: 2001/05/20 01:18:27; author: craigmcc; state: Exp; lines: +47 -83 branches: 1.28.2; Update to the current versions from the Commons Beanutils project. After Struts 1.0 final, Struts will be modified to use the Commons packages directly. This update also fixes two outstanding bug reports: PR: Bugzilla #1200 - access to public methods defined in nested interfaces Submitted by: Rashid Desai <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PR: Bugzilla #1785 - misleading exception when "bean" is null Submitted by: Stephen Breeser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> .. Can I conclude that the loss of get*Property methods is unintentional, and they should be added to jakarta-commons' BeanUtils, or should I start coding around it? thanks, --Jeff
