    collection-type bean properties in Blueprint

    constv7

      In my Blueprint config file,  have a bean definition that used to cause no issues is Spring:

       

       

           

       

      Note the last property named "arguments" that is a list/collection of objects. While it works fine in Spring, Blueprint throws an exception stating that the string value (successfully resolved from a property file) cannot be cast to java [Ljava.lang.Object:

       

      Caused by: java.lang.Exception: Unable to convert value 13F0EA1F49DA6D3BA8AA69A7408FC2C3 to type class [Ljava.lang.Object;. Type class [Ljava.lang.Object; is an interface or an abstract class

      Does Blueprint not support collection-type properties in bean definitions? Is there a way around it?

       

      Thanks,
