  * Utility methods for converting String scalar values to objects of the specified Class, String arrays to arrays of the specified Class. The actual

  * are provided for all of the following destination Classes:
  * </p>
  * <ul>

  * <li>java.lang.Class (no default value)</li>
  * <li>java.awt.Color (no default value)</li>
  * <li>java.awt.Dimension (no default value)</li>
  * <li>double and java.lang.Double (default to zero)</li>
  * <li>float and java.lang.Float (default to zero)</li>
  * <li>int and java.lang.Integer (default to zero)</li>
  * <li>long and java.lang.Long (default to zero)</li>
  * <li>short and java.lang.Short (default to zero)</li>
  * <li>java.lang.String (default to null)</li>

  *
  * <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.beanutils2.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, that is, 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 <em>arrays</em> 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>
