Hi Thomas or Brian (which one is it ?)
There is a "set" function in BaseObject which either takes a typed
object but also a String. It calls "fromString" if it is a String
So something like
doc.getObject("XWiki.ClassName",0).set("fieldname", "value",
context)
should work

THOMAS, BRIAN M (ATTSI) a écrit :
Brief background: I have a servlet filter that
handles authentication.
It wants to auto-register previously unseen users, and update
already-registered users, from information in cookies. The information
is mostly in the form of strings, but the object's fields might not be.
The question: Is there a simple, type-independent method to set an
XWiki Object field's value from a string? The question is not "how can
this be done", since I can easily work that out, but rather "is there a
method currently available"?
