Posssible bug in Betwixt alpha

[Ujjwala Kulkarni <uj...@bea.com>]

Hi , 

I guess , when user calls method beanReader.parse(file) , the  ‘update’ of class org.apache.commons.betwixt.expression.MethodUpdater  gets called. 

I observed that if the data types are java.util.Date , int the attributes are not getting converted to the required data type and hence I get the InvalidArgumentExcetion as the default attribute type passed is ‘String’ 

If the date is java.sql.Date then there is no problem but if it is java.util.Date type then I get this exception. One possible cause is that these data types do not have constructors accepting String as only argument. 

e.g java.util.Date  has deprecated new Date(String) constructor. 

And the Interger can not be converted to int like  new int(String)  the code 

 “newValue = ConvertUtils.convert( (String) newValue, valueType );”  will always fail to convert to int or java.util.Date. 

I modified MethodUpdater and the log file I got. And added following statements 

                System.out.println(" UJ -  "+valueType);
                System.out.println(" UJ dest-  "+newValue.getClass());

And  pasting the log I got shows that the type conversion is not working properly.
