/**
 * <p>Utility methods for converting String scalar values to objects of the
 * specified Class, String arrays to arrays of the specified Class.  The
 * actual {@link Converter} instance to be used can be registered for each
 * possible destination Class.  Unless you override them, standard
 * {@link Converter} instances are provided for all of the following
 * destination Classes:</p>
 * <ul>
 * <li>java.lang.BigDecimal (no default value)
 * <li>java.lang.BigInteger (no default value)
 * <li>boolean and java.lang.Boolean (default to false)
 * <li>byte and java.lang.Byte (default to zero)
 * <li>char and java.lang.Character (default to a space)
 * <li>java.lang.Class (no default value)
 * <li>double and java.lang.Double (default to zero)
 * <li>float and java.lang.Float (default to zero)
 * <li>int and java.lang.Integer (default to zero)
 * <li>long and java.lang.Long (default to zero)
 * <li>short and java.lang.Short (default to zero)
 * <li>java.lang.String (default to null)
 * <li>java.io.File (no default value)
 * <li>java.net.URL (no default value)
 * <li>java.sql.Date (no default value)
 * <li>java.sql.Time (no default value)
 * <li>java.sql.Timestamp (no default value)
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>For backwards compatibility, the standard Converters for primitive
 * types (and the corresponding wrapper classes) return a defined
 * default value when a conversion error occurs.  If you prefer to have a
 * {@link ConversionException} thrown instead, replace the standard Converter
 * instances with instances created with the zero-arguments constructor.  For
 * example, to cause the Converters for integers to throw an exception on
 * conversion errors, you could do this:</p>
 * <pre>
 *   // No-args constructor gets the version that throws exceptions
 *   Converter myConverter =
 *    new org.apache.commons.beanutils.converter.IntegerConverter();
 *   ConvertUtils.register(myConverter, Integer.TYPE);    // Native type
 *   ConvertUtils.register(myConverter, Integer.class);   // Wrapper class
 * </pre>
 * 
 * <p>
 * Converters generally treat null input as if it were invalid
 * input, ie they return their default value if one was specified when the
 * converter was constructed, and throw an exception otherwise. If you prefer
 * nulls to be preserved for converters that are converting to objects (not
 * primitives) then register a converter as above, passing a default value of
 * null to the converter constructor (and of course registering that converter
 * only for the .class target).
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * When a converter is listed above as having no default value, then that
 * converter will throw an exception when passed null or an invalid value
 * as its input. In particular, by default the BigInteger and BigDecimal
 * converters have no default (and are therefore somewhat inconsistent
 * with the other numerical converters which all have zero as their default).
 * </p>
 * 
 * <p>
 * Converters that generate <i>arrays of each of the primitive types are
 * also automatically configured (including String[]). When passed null
 * or invalid input, these return an empty array (not null). See class
 * AbstractArrayConverter for the supported input formats for these converters.
 * </p>
