confused about an action forms fields

[teknokrat]

Do all the fields of an actionform have to be strings? I am confused as 
to when a form field should become an entity in my business logic. For 
example, I have quite complex business objects composed of ArrayLists, 
Dates and other classes. How are these to be set? Do I need to capture 
everything as a primitive type and then have my action build the complex 
business entity? if I am updating an already existing entitiy do I need 
to change every field in it manually?

thanks
