Struts 2 -Big Decimal auto conversion issue
Dear All,
Big Decimal auto conversion fails when an empty string is received.Excerpt
of the stack given below.
/-- Encapsulated exception ------------\
java.lang.NoSuchMethodException:
com.path.ConvTest.setId([Ljava.lang.String;)
at ognl.OgnlRuntime.callAppropriateMethod(OgnlRuntime.java:1206)
at ognl.OgnlRuntime.setMethodValue(OgnlRuntime.java:1454)
When an empty string is received from the client it searches for a method
with argument String instead of Big Decimal.But works perfectly fine if the
value is not empty.If Big Decimal data type is changed to Integer then
there is no issue even if the value is empty string.Could you please let me
know why this happens or am i missing something.Thank you

The biggest risk is not taking any risk…In a world that is changing really
quickly, the only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks

Because it uses the default BigDecimal parsing.
Options include:
* Using an interceptor to strip leading/trailing spaces from form elements
before type conversion
* Using a custom type converter that does basically the same thing
* Etc.
