Binding Converter for an Array

Suppose I have a model like below:

Model{
int[] order = new int[] {1,2,3,4};
}

I want to bind this to a textfield`s text property. I have written a converter extending org.jdesktop.beansbinding.Converter<Integer[],String>.

But it is not working issuing a ClassCastException at the definition of the class.

Note that an int[] cannot be implicitly or (explicitly) cast to an Integer[].

Yes, I realized this later. When I used the converter as extending Converter<int[],String>, it worked. I was under the impression that while using generics I must use a class type rather than a primitive.

Thanks for your help

int is a primative; whereas int[] is not. You pass the int[] as a reference.
