Niall Pemberton resolved BEANUTILS-249.
---------------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed
      Assignee: Niall Pemberton

I just finised the changes for BEANUTILS-258 which will resolve this in most situations, but I modified that piece of code anyway to remove the toString() and use the new flavour convert method in ConvertUtilsBean

> BeanUtilsBean.setProperty(Object bean, String name, Object value) cannot properly convert any custom class using convertor.
> Line 1007
> It calls toString() on every object regardless of its type (unless it was a string or an array). This prevent custom convertors from functioning.
