The default converters are initialised as follows with 0 for most numeric defaults. if you construct and register converters with no default value, null will be returned for "" or when an error occurs

Yeah, that is the joy of bean-utils. It is best to leave it a stringon the form and convert it yourself.

I have a form with a Long property; I used Long instead of long to have the property nullable, but if the (html) form includes such a property, struts sets the corresponding bean property to 0, even if it has no value (value=""); what I'd like is struts to leave the property at null!! It also behaves so if the (html) property has non numeric value!! Any help is VERY appreciated
