Re: empty TextField to null not empty string

[Paul Ferraro]

I think the easiest way to change this behavior globally is to implement 
your own TextField component:

public abstract class TextField extends org.apache.tapestry.form.TextField
{
   public void updateValue(String value)
   {
       getValueBinding().setString(((value != null) && (value.length() 
> 0)) ? value : null);
   }
}

Hello,
In Tapestry 3.0.x submission of empty text field will initialize property
binded to this field with empty string (sometimes called a blank string).
Is there any chance to set this property to null instead ?
e.g. I have an Contact bean with optional property let's say lastName.
I would like to have this property null if user left this field blank.
How can I achieve this (in whole app of course)?
