Problem with Shale Tiger and managed-property

[Reind <re...@exampledot.com>]

Hi all,

I found a bug (?) while trying to initialize a property using the
managed-bean creation facility. I included the relavent portion of the
faces-config.xml below. Basically, anytime I try to use managed-property on
a non-String type I get a NullPointerException. The exception and other
output from JBoss (4.0.4GA) is also included below.

I resolved this issue by removing the shale-tiger jar and re-deploying. I
wanted to check with the list first before bugging it.

Thanks,
- Reind.

faces-config.xml
<managed-bean>
    <managed-bean-name>test</managed-bean-name>
    <managed-bean-class>ca.reind.test.Test</managed-bean-class>
    <managed-bean-scope>request</managed-bean-scope>
    <managed-property>
        <property-name>test</property-name>
        <property-class>java.lang.Integer</property-class>
        <value>5</value>
    </managed-property>
    </managed-bean>
