public class StrutsRequestProcessor

isConvertNullWorkaroundNeeded

protected boolean isConvertNullWorkaroundNeeded()

In KEW we set the convertNull property to "true" on the Struts ActionServlet. However, if an application which is running KEW as an embedded Struts Module has it set to false or is using some customizations to BeanUtils this will cause problems. We need to detect when this case occurs, then register context sensitive converters which will convert properly inside of the KEW web application.

processActionForm

                                                                org.apache.struts.action.ActionMapping mapping)
