public class StringToCollectionConverter extends Object implements Converter<String,Collection>
String to Collection of tokens
and back.
Allows to break a string into tokens using delimiter. Each token can be converted to its own model using provided converter.
Default constructor uses ", " as delimiter string and
String for token types. Other constructors allow to configure
delimiter and token types.
