24.7. Working with Data types
24.7.1. Primitives / Basic Types
This section describes the support for basic data types. On the server side, these values are generally compatible with either their primitive type, or their corresponding wrapper class.
24.7.1.1. String
Use JavaScript String objects to set String parameter values.
24.7.1.2. Number
Seam supports all Java-supported number types. On the client side, number values are always serialized as their String representation. They are converted to the correct destination type on the server side. Conversion into either a primitive or wrapper type is supported for
Byte, Double, Float, Integer, Long and Short types.
24.7.1.3. Boolean
Booleans are represented client-side by JavaScript Boolean values, and server-side by a Java Boolean.
