Daniel Kulp updated CXF-4055:
-----------------------------
Fix Version/s: (was: 2.5.2)
> Parameter Handler not Invoked if Constructor or Static Methods Succeed
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CXF-4055
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-4055
> Project: CXF
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: JAX-RS
> Affects Versions: 2.5.1
> Reporter: Jonathan Haber
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: injectionutils, jaxrs, parameterhandler, queryparam
> Original Estimate: 3h
> Remaining Estimate: 3h
>
> My reading of InjectionUtils suggests that when performing type conversion,
> custom parameter handlers appear to be the last resort. If the object has a
> single-string constructor or a static valueOf/fromString method and any of
> these succeed, custom parameter handlers will not be invoked.
> This is causing issues in our application where users are able to define
> their own date formats and the string values are passed as query parameters.
> We implemented ParameterHandler<Date> and in the fromString body parse the
> string value according to the specific user's date format. But depending on
> the date format, the String constructor of java.util.Date may or may not
> throw an exception depending on the specific date format. If it does not
> succeed, our parameter handler is reached and all is well. But if it does
> "succeed" this date will be used by CXF and our parameter handler is never
> reached (This is a problem because even if the constructor doesn't throw an
> exception, the date is usually parsed incorrectly and represents the wrong
> date).
