Thanks Fletch, I enjoyed doing them too – but I didn’t know if they were worthwhile or if anyone else would find them interesting. I did consider just doing lots of small posts thinking the information wouldn’t get so ‘lost’ perhaps – and then just abandoned the idea. Perhaps I’ll start up again!

I liked this post and I liked the idea of “week in review”. I searched but noticed these posts seem to have finished at the end of 2008. Why don’t you do them anymore?

If params.id is not an Integer, an exception will be thrown:

org.hibernate.TypeMismatchException: Provided id of the wrong type. Expected: class java.lang.Long, got class java.lang.String

Thats okay with me – people can construct URLs to send anything to the server, and if exceptions like these happen I’m okay handling it with a generic error.

The important thing is that the UI doesn’t let this happen with normal use.
