Passing in an empty String as a constructor arg value for a bean where the underlying property is an

[Martijn Verburg]

Hi all,

I've got a bean, e.g.

<bean id="transformationExceptionDefinition" class="org.ikasan.framework.exception.user.ExternalExceptionDefinition">
    <!-- user action -->
    <constructor-arg value="" />
</bean>

Where the corresponding class:

public ExternalExceptionDefinition(ExternalExceptionDefinition userAction)
{
    this.userAction = userAction;
}

and the ExternalExceptionDefinition class is an enum:

public enum ExternalUserAction
{
    ACCEPT,
    REJECT,
    RETRY,
    ;

    private ExternalUserAction()
    {
        // default constructor
    }
    
}

Does anyone know what the behaviour should be? We don't get any errors which surprises me.
