JcrValue.asType(int desiredPropertyType) skips a number of valid conversions and has duplicate logic ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: DNA-336 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/DNA-336 Project: DNA Issue Type: Bug Components: JCR Affects Versions: 0.3 Reporter: Randall Hauch Assignee: Randall Hauch Fix For: 0.4 Currently the JcrValue implementation has a method "asType(int propertyType)" that creates a new JcrValue object with the original values converted to the specified type. There are a couple of cases that are missed: 1) The code does not do any conversion to LONG of DOUBLE. However, according to the JCR 1.0 specification, it is possible to convert these if the current type is a STRING, BINARY, DATE, DOUBLE, or LONG. 2) The code does not do any conversion to REFERENCE. However, according to the JCR 1.0 specification, it is possible to convert these if the current type is a STRING, NAME, or BINARY. 3) The conversion to a number of types exclude going to BINARY 4) The conversion to NAME and PATH both have somewhat complex logic to determine if a conversion is possible, even the current value factories do the same checks. The code should just let the value factories do the checks. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
