Hi,

in the past (until WO 5.4) I often have used a WOTextField with a formatter to prevent errors like this:

"java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: While trying to invoke the set method "public void com.cx.harow.eos._ArztFolgedokLeistung $StorageClass.setAnzahl(java.lang.Short)" on an object of type com.cx.harow.arzt.dokumente.ArztFolgedokumentationContext $TempFolgedokLeistung we received an argument of type java.lang.String. This often happens if you forget to use a formatter."

When a value was invalid the formatter did not set an invalid value in my objects.

Now, in WO 5.4 this is no longer true. When the formatter fails to parse a string it still gets pushed into the target object. As this is documented is must somehow be considered "expected" behavior. Unfortunately this breaks all our apps, as no class handles those invalid strings.

Whoa! Where is this documented? I also depend on this.

I don't see this mentioned in the 5.4.2 release notes. Is there a bug report already? How is this meant to work now?


with regards,
