[Springframework-developer] PropertyEditor lookup question

[Steven D. <ste...@gm...>]

I register a delegating property editor like this:

	<bean class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.CustomEditorConfigurer">
		<property name="customEditors">
			<map>
				<entry key="java.lang.Object">
					<bean class="sandbox.DelegatingPropertyEditor">
						<property name="delegates">
							<map>
								<entry key="classpath">
									<bean class="org.springframework.beans.propertyeditors.InputStreamEditor"/>
								</entry>
								<entry key="class">
									<bean class="org.springframework.beans.propertyeditors.ClassEditor"/>
								</entry>
							</map>
						</property>
					</bean>
				</entry>
			</map>
		</property>
	</bean>

When I create this bean my property editor is not called. Why is that?

	<bean id="aList" class="java.util.ArrayList">
		<constructor-arg>
			<list>
				<value>classpath:sandbox.xml</value>
				<value>class:sandbox.TestSandBox</value>
				<value>a string</value>
			</list>
		</constructor-arg>
	</bean>
