How to setup a String[]in spring context ?

[ndeloof]

I've to set an environment map (to set JMX connector credentials) as a bean property. This map must include a String[2] entry.

Is they're a Spring way to setup a String[] in bean context ?

This is not tested, and I think it's rather cumbersome at that. I'm sure there are better ways (like writing your own factory bean), but I can't think of any of them now...

<bean id="arrayList" class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.ListFactoryBean">
  <property name="sourceList">
    <list>
      <value>value 1</value>
      <value>value 2</value>
    </list>
  </property>
</bean>

<bean id="someBean" class="foo">
  <property name="someMap">
    <map>
      <entry>
        <key><value>theKey</value></key>
        <bean factory-bean="arrayList" factory-method="toArray"/>
      </entry>
    </map>
  </property>
</bean>

I had already tested this, but it builds on Object[] array, not String[].

I will have to create a factoryBean for this.

Thanks you for suggestion anyway.

String[] property example:

<property name="pages"><value>page1,page2,page3</value></property>

It works, I just had to add

<value type="java.lang.String&#91;&#93;">

Thanks.
