    This is’nt a good advice, since EnumTypeConverter is deprecated:

    @deprecated Since Struts 2.1.0 as enum support is now built into XWork

    So you should smply update to a current version of struts and use enums directly.

    @jwi thank you so much for the comment. Like you said, since enum support is built in post version 2.1 , only users with version number less than that would actually be searching for a solution. This post (and as the title rightly says) is for Struts 2.0 :)
