        Key: NANO-59
    Summary: Property setting through ognl shouldn't use Arrays.asList()
       Type: Bug

     Status: Unassigned
   Priority: Major

 Original Estimate: Unknown

Environment: Tomcat 5.0.19, ognl 2.5.1

Description:
A HttpServletRequest has the URI keywords as keys, and String[] as values. I don't understand the intention of setPropertiesWithOgnl():

            Object value = parameterMap.get(parameterKey);
            if (value instanceof String[]) {
                value = Arrays.asList((String[]) value);
            }
            try {
                Ognl.setValue(parameterKey, action, value);
            } catch (OgnlException e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
                throw new ServletException(e);
            }

Why convert to Arrays.asList()? I did a test with Ognl standalone. It can match String[] as input, for a String[] property. With the current code, it will yield:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: setNumber(java.util.Arrays$ArrayList)
at ognl.OgnlRuntime.callAppropriateMethod(OgnlRuntime.java:551)
...

Where it doesn't match the internal ArrayList used by Arrays.asList().
