Retrieving instance of XWorkConverter in 2.1.x

[Bob Jacoby <bo...@gossamer-group.com>]

I'm trying to migrate code from webwork to 2.1.6 and am not sure about how
to get a reference to the XWorkConverter singleton. The
XWorkConverter.getInstance() method was removed in 2.1.x (existed in 2.0.x)
and the constructor is protected. The code I'm trying to migrate is:

 

//'from' is some random object

Map contextFrom = Ognl.createDefaultContext(from);

Ognl.setTypeConverter(contextFrom, XWorkConverter.getInstance());

 

Any suggestions would be appreciated. I've tried googling and looking at the
migration guides but didn't see anything that appeared relevant.

 

Thanks,

Bob

If your action is instantiated by the default object factory, do this:

@Inject
public void setConverter(XWorkConverter converter) {.....}

if you are using a different object factory (I think injection still
happens with the Spring factory, but I am not 100% sure):

Dispatcher.getInstance().getContainer().getInstance(XWorkConverter.class)

as always, use at your own risk, internal "API" changes without notice.
