Empty number field to Long, causing error. #11

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
How do I set a empty number field.. The XML returned has a empty parentId. 
because of that I get a conversion error, see below.

XMLAlias alias=new XMLAlias().add("standard", Standard.class).add("standards", 
ArrayList.class); 

List resultset = 
Resting.getByXML("http://192.168.0.4/standards.xml?auth_token=1234", 
3000,null,ArrayList.class, alias);

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<standards>
  <standard>
    <id>1</id>
    <title>Safety</title>
    <parentId></parentId>
    <parentTitle></parentTitle>
    <level>0</level>
    <noOfChildren>6</noOfChildren>
  </standard>
</standards>

public class Standard {
    Long id;
    Long lft;
    Long rgt;
    Long parentId;
    String title;
    Date createdAt;
    Date updatedAt;
...

Resting internally uses XStream v1.3 to handle XML parsing which is throwing 
this exception. Please go through the documentation available at 
http://xstream.codehaus.org/. You may need to write a custom converter and 
register it with XMLAlias using addConverter() method. The link below may be 
useful:

A quick workaround will be to read the xml data as Strings, then convert into 
Long/other objects. In that case, the xstream converter will not be reqd. 

public class Standard {
    String id;
    String lft;
    String rgt;
    String parentId;
    String title;
....
This should not be the long term solution though, in which case there should be 
a reflection converter in place.
