I had a Converter class I wanted to use to build a model off a @RequestMapping. The conversion mechanism only worked with Converter instances. I expected the request parameter my situtation to be an Integer, so I wanted to use the framework to validate parameters as opposed to adapting my existing class into a Converter.

The documentation has not been updated to reflect this feature. I am waiting for approval of this enhancement before doing so.

Looking at the history of the issue (that has been bulk closed), it appears that the problem is no longer reproducible with the currently supported versions of the framework.
