Method Detail
convertIfNecessary
public <T> T convertIfNecessary(Object value, Class<T> requiredType) throws TypeMismatchException
Description copied from interface:TypeConverter
Convert the value to the required type (if necessary from a String).Conversions from String to any type will typically use the
setAsText
method of the PropertyEditor class, or a Spring Converter in a ConversionService.- Specified by:
convertIfNecessary
in interfaceTypeConverter
- Parameters:
value
- the value to convertrequiredType
- the type we must convert to (ornull
if not known, for example in case of a collection element)- Returns:
- the new value, possibly the result of type conversion
- Throws:
TypeMismatchException
- if type conversion failed- See Also:
