Tapestry 5.0.5 bug, TAPESTRY-1648

有一个domian object， 其中有个property的type是BigDecimal。在增加bigdecimal的translator后。

package com.javaeye.dengyin2000.gtts.tapestry;

import java.math.BigDecimal;

import org.apache.tapestry.Translator;
import org.apache.tapestry.ValidationException;
import org.apache.tapestry.ioc.Messages;
import org.apache.tapestry.ioc.internal.util.InternalUtils;

public class BigDecimalTranslator implements Translator<BigDecimal> {

	public BigDecimal parseClient(String clientValue, Messages messages)
			throws ValidationException {
        if (InternalUtils.isBlank(clientValue))
            return null;

        try
        {
            return new BigDecimal(clientValue.trim());
        }
        catch (NumberFormatException ex)
        {
            throw new ValidationException(messages.format("number-format-exception", clientValue));
        }
	}

	public String toClient(BigDecimal value) {
		return value == null ? "" : value.toString();
	}

}

然后contribute 到AppModule

    public static void contributeTranslatorDefaultSource(
            MappedConfiguration<Class, Translator> configuration)
    {
    	configuration.add(BigDecimal.class, new BigDecimalTranslator());
    }
    
    public static void contributeTranslatorSource(
            MappedConfiguration<String, Translator> configuration)
    {
    	configuration.add("bigdecimal",  new BigDecimalTranslator());
    }

当提交form时，会发生一个NPE。 错误发生在。org.apache.tapestry.ioc.services.TapestryIOCModule

        // String to BigDecimal is important, as String->Double->BigDecimal would lose
        // precision.

        add(configuration, String.class, BigDecimal.class, new Coercion<String, BigDecimal>()
        {
            public BigDecimal coerce(String input)
            {
                return new BigDecimal(input);
            }
        });

这里有个很明显的错误。  就是当input为null时。 就发生了NPE.错误如下：

我试着想去覆盖Tapestry IOC module 的这快代码。  然而没有用。 然后google， 发现原来这是个bug。 这个bug会在5.0.6中解决。可是这是个很明显的错误呀。也不尽快解决掉。 具体可以看。https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-1648， 然后发贴到Tapestry mailling list上问 也没有下文。  既然这样，也只有去自己修改Tapestry-ioc的source code了。 其实这也很简单， 如果是是null 或者是 空字符的话 renturn null就是了。  ok  把tapestry的ioc用svn上拉下来。  简单的修改为

        // String to BigDecimal is important, as String->Double->BigDecimal would lose
        // precision.

        add(configuration, String.class, BigDecimal.class, new Coercion<String, BigDecimal>()
        {
            public BigDecimal coerce(String input)
            {
                    if (input == null || input.trim().length() == 0)
                        return null;
                    return new BigDecimal(input);
            }
        });

打包替换掉tapestry-ioc 5.0.5。 再跑便程序。  ok  通过。
