Re: [Strutsgenerator-user] argument type mismatch

[Juan P. M. <ju_...@ho...>]

It is indeed the latest build, taken from CVS.  Looking into it, I think 
I found what could be a fix:
In DAO.java, line 44 it reads
     BeanUtils.populate(bean, properties);
However, that method is intended for use with web request parameters, 
and cannot distinguish between a date and a String (it can, however tell 
a number form a String, and that's why it works with numbers and not 
dates) it could be changed for
     PropertyUtils.copyProperties(bean, properties);

Does anybody see hidden side effects that would make this solution 
undesirable?

Thanks
