Parsing ActionForm Strings

[Tom Brunner <br...@yahoo.com>]

Hey all,

Quick question...What is the best place to parse
Strings to actual data representations from an
ActionForm?

I have a co-worker that is complaining that Struts is
going to take too long to do something like that in an
action class.

He believes that when an ActionForm is created it
should set some value in another Form object that
holds actual data types to save time...

Anyway, sorry to bore you all with a boring question
but what is the best way to do this and why? 

thanks for your input and time...

-Tom

if i understand you right, you want to change the input, which is Strings, to
actual data types (i.e. Dates, Boolean, etc.) in the ActionForm.

This issue has been brought up before, read the pass post on :
