字符串从空到空-将表单字段空到空-Spring编辑器-StringTrimmerEditor

Question

I have read few posts, and tried implementing the same way, but somehow i am getting below error. I want to implement through XML based configuration .

Two Ways

Annotation Based - Works Fine

@ControllerAdvice
@Controller
public class AppBindingInitializer {

    @InitBinder
    public void initBinder(WebDataBinder binder) {
        binder.registerCustomEditor(String.class, new StringTrimmerEditor(true));
    }

}

XML Based - Getting Error

<bean id="coreCustomEditors" class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.CustomEditorConfigurer">
     <property name="customEditors">
        <map>
            <entry key="java.lang.String">
                <bean class="org.springframework.beans.propertyeditors.StringTrimmerEditor">
                    <constructor-arg name="emptyAsNull" value="true" />
                </bean>
            </entry>
        </map>
    </property>
 </bean>

Exception

Answer 1

You have to specify a class name as value, not a bean (as stated by the message), like this:

<bean id="coreCustomEditors" class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.CustomEditorConfigurer">
     <property name="customEditors">
         <map>
             <entry key="java.lang.String" value="your.package.EmptyAsNullStringTrimmerEditor"/>
         </map>
    </property>
</bean>

with EmptyAsNullStringTrimmerEditor being:

package your.package;

public class EmptyAsNullStringTrimmerEditor extends StringTrimmerEditor {
    public YourClass() { super(true); }
}

see CustomEditorConfigurer javadoc
