IllegalArgumentException problem help

[hoang ngo]

Hi,

I wrote a formBean which has getter setter for an ArrayList.
my getter is:

public ArrayList getLdapVOList() {
return ldapVOList;
}

setter is:

public void ArrayList(ArrayList list){
this.ldapVOList = list;
}


in JSP:

im setting this arraylist as hidden value.

<input type="hidden" name="ldapVOList" value="<c ut value="${userValidationServerForm.ldapVOList}"/>">


and while submitting the form I am getting this exception:


java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Cannot invoke com.intruvert.ui.struts.configure.admin.nac.userValidationServer.UserValidationServerForm.setLdapVOList - argument type mismatch

I am pretty sure that you cannot populate List properties directly. I can remember on a page where I had to store a list of id values. I added methods like getIdsAsString() and setIdsAsString(). I had code in the get method that returned the id values as a delimited String and in the set method that parsed the delimited string and populated the list.
