PROBLEM SUMMARY

USERS AFFECTED:
WebSphere Process Server 6.0.1.x and
6.0.2.x users using Map Transformations

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
In Interface maps, maping an attribute
array of a business Object to a
BusinessObject Array does not work.

RECOMMENDATION:
None

In Interface maps, maping an attribute array of a business
Object to a BusinessObject Array does not work. The
transformation does not show any exception in console or
System.out logs but values are not transferred to the target.

If a BusinessObject (BO1) has an attribute array say
attribute1 of type string[] and the target BusinessObject
(BO2) has an Object (subBO)which is an array and has an
attribute of type  string, then the transformation from
BO1 - attribute1 to BO2 - subBO does not transfer the values.

PROBLEM CONCLUSION:                                             
The Ifix JR26116 solves this issue
