Updated Destination bean for Collection Object not working as it is working for non collection object.

[deep121]

hi,
While Using updating destination bean , we pass the instance of destination bean along with Source instance.now , there are 2 scenarios which i faced , output differs in both cases:
Scenario 1: if source has field(non collection field like String name) which is null. Now if destination has this field , then this value will not be updated in destination bean.

Scenario 2: if source has field(collection field like List ids) which is null. Now if destination has this field , then this value will updated in destination bean.

I want same result as in case of non collection field. i means i will update the field in destination bean only if the field in source is not null .Is it is possible?

Thanks

Hi,

Are you using the withIgnoreNullValue in both cases ? This should work the same but don't expect updating collections of objects in a destination bean.
For the moment Selma can only overrides the existing collection with the one coming from source bean.
I hope this helps. If the null value is not handled with the same behavior I'll consider this as a bug.
