svn commit: r369704 - in /struts/shale/trunk/core-library/src/java/org/apache/shale/util: ConverterHelper.java PropertyHelper.java

Author: craigmcc
Date: Mon Jan 16 23:12:46 2006
New Revision: 369704

URL: http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs?rev=369704&view=rev
Log:
Add JSF-friendly helper beans to access property values and converters, so that
Shale code does not need to depend on commons-beanutils directly for these
purposes (although it currently inherits a transitive dependency by virtue
of the fact that it uses Commons Digester to parse configuration files).

Added:
    struts/shale/trunk/core-library/src/java/org/apache/shale/util/ConverterHelper.java   (with props)
