BeanUtils 1.8.0 in Struts 1.3.9?
Hi, all,
I couldn't find an answer to this in the 1.3.9 beta docs or in the mailing
list archives: Does Struts 1.3.9 plan to move up to BeanUtils 1.8.0? Both
are currently beta releases, but the Struts 1.3.9 beta includes BeanUtils
1.7.0. Any chance that the next Struts 1.3.9 beta/rc/whatever could move
up to include BeanUtils 1.8.0 beta (and, subsequently, BeanUtils 1.8.0
once it is released)? BeanUtils hasn't had a release in quite a while, so
it seems like it would be a good opportunity for Struts 1.3.9 to release
with the latest and greatest BeanUtils.

BeanUtils 1.8.0 (was BeanUtils 1.8.0 in Struts 1.3.9?)
Posted by Al Sutton <al...@alsutton.com>.
Given the general warm feeling towards 1.8.0, should we make sure 2.1 uses
it as well?

When 1.8 is released, it will become the official version for Struts 1.4.
However, that doesn't stop anyone from upgrading 1.3.9 themselves. 1.7 will
stay the preferred dependency for 1.3.x

The main reason there hasn't been a BeanUtils 1.8.0 release is because
a memory leak issue was raised that I haven't had the time or
inclination to look at yet. Having said that the same issue exists in
BeanUtils 1.7.0 so IMO upgrading to BeanUtils 1.8.0-BETA is a good
idea and I've been using it in a live environment since it was
released.

In the release notes of BeanUtils 1.8.0 you can read:
<snip>
Compatibility with 1.7.0
========================
BeanUtils 1.8.0-BETA is binary compatible release with Beanutils 1.7.0,
containing a number of bug fixes and enhancements.
</snip>
Therefore you can put the new version of BeanUtils on your side with
no side effects.
I believe that, if BeanUtils 1.8.x won't become GA, it won't be
included in Struts 1.3.x (or 1.4).

Re: OT: BeanUtils 1.7 and 1.8
Posted by Niall Pemberton <ni...@gmail.com>.
You should ask this on the commons user list:
http://commons.apache.org/beanutils/mail-lists.html
...but the reason is because you have used the wrong names for keys in
your Map - the first character should be lower case (so "properyA" and
"propertyB") - this is the java beans spec
If you change the key names then it works.

OT: BeanUtils 1.7 and 1.8
Posted by Giovanni Azua <gi...@imc.nl>.
hi,
Sorry for the of-topic but given that BeanUtils is heavily used in
Struts, can anyone suggest why this test does not pass neither in 1.7
nor 1.8? alternative way using BeanUtils? I had to end up implementing
my own Reflection-based copyProperties ...
//------------------------------------------------------------------------
public void
testCopyProperties()
throws Exception
{
class SomeBean
{
//----------------------------------------------------------------
public final double
getPropertyA()
{
return thePropertyA;
}
//----------------------------------------------------------------
public final void
setPropertyA(double aPropertyA)
{
thePropertyA = aPropertyA;
}
//----------------------------------------------------------------
public final double
getPropertyB()
{
return thePropertyB;
}
//----------------------------------------------------------------
public final void
setPropertyB(double aPropertyB)
{
thePropertyB = aPropertyB;
}
//----------------------------------------------------------------
/** (non-Javadoc)
* @see java.lang.Object#toString()
*/
@Override
public String
toString()
{
return "(" + getPropertyA() + ", " + getPropertyB() + ")";
}
//----------------------------------------------------------------
// members
//----------------------------------------------------------------
private double thePropertyA = 0;
private double thePropertyB = 0;
}
Object myBean = new SomeBean();
String myExpected = "(1.0, 1.0)";
Map<String, Object> myMap = new HashMap<String, Object>();
myMap.put("PropertyA", 1.0);
myMap.put("PropertyB", 1.0);
BeanUtilsBean.getInstance().copyProperties(myBean, myMap);
assertEquals("BeanUtilsBean.copyProperties did not work as
expected",
myExpected, myBean.toString());
}
TIA,
regards,
Giovanni
