Subject: Checkboxes and Intermittent BeanUtils.populate Error
Comrades,
I check a checkbox and submit, I get the error. If I do not use the checkbox
and hit submit, the page comes up successfully. Any issues with primitives
in relation to the FormBean member population?
The strange thing is that this problem does not occur all the time. The page
prior to this JSP has a form with checkboxes and that works fine with
checkboxes checked. That is creepy and worries me.
I looked at the source code and here is a snippet from
BeanUtils.setProperty(Object, String)
//------------------------
else { // Value into scalar
if (value instanceof String || (value == null &&
type.isPrimitive())) {
newValue = ConvertUtils.convert((String) value, type);
} else if (value instanceof String[]) {
newValue = ConvertUtils.convert(((String[]) value)[0],
type);
} else {
newValue = value;
}
}
//------------------------
I wonder if this part is messing things up for primitive types. I checked
the checkBox Value and it got the String as "on".
Now the code that takes this "on" and sets the ValueObject boolean variable
to true seems to be causing the problem.
My getters for boolean are getFoo() and setFoo() where foo is a boolean.
Should it be setFoo() and isFoo()??
Please Advise
