Class ConvertUtils

      +--org.apache.struts.util.ConvertUtils

Deprecated. At some point after Struts 1.0 final, will be replaced by an equivalent class in the Jakarta Commons Beanutils package.

public class ConvertUtils
extends java.lang.Object

Utility methods for converting String values to objects of the specified class. If you specify a Java primitive type, or an array of a Java primitive type, as a destination type, a scalar or array of the coresponding Java wrapper class will be created instead. If you attempt to convert an Object or Object array of a non-String and non-primitive type, it will be converted to a scalar String or array of Strings, as appropriate.
