       Body:
Hivemind uses java.beans.PropertyEditorManager to translate values from String to complex objects. PropertyEditorManager comes with pre-registered translators for all the basic types, so there is definitely something wrong here.

Are you trying to use hivemind via webstart? Check HIVEMIND-10 if this is the case.

Here is an overview of the issue:

        Key: HIVEMIND-15
    Summary: hivemind fails on translating a string attribute in a string
       Type: Wish

     Status: Open
   Priority: Major

    Project: HiveMind
 Components: 
             framework
   Versions:
             1.0

Environment: Windows 2000, Eclipse 3.0, j2sdk1.4.2

Description:
I have a configuration-point that builds a list of strings. When I build the schema for the cp, hivemind expects a translator for an attribute. Since I want to have Strings in my list, I don't need a translator.

Sadly the SmartTranslator fails on translating a string into a string, so I had to write my own (very simple implementation :-). Maybe I did something wrong in my configuration-point:

configuration-point (id=model) {
  schema {
    element (name=model) {
      attribute (name=name required=true)

      rules {
        push-attribute (attribute=name)
        invoke-parent (method=addElement)
      }
    }
  }
}

contribution (configuration-id=model) {
  model (name=MyModelName)
}

If this is correct, it would be a great enhancement, if hivemind would be able to "translate" strings into strings without implementing a custom translator. This is not very intuitive.

Greetings,

Christian Domsch
