HTTPGotoRequest cannot use a vector in the %Params% map correctly

[Tatjana]

e'd like to run a http request (see an example below) in order to be able to kill several jobs all at once. But I doesn't work. Is it a bug?

http://app01.com:8080/sysadmin/jobs.jsp?daofactoryid=dao-1-maint&job_id=&status=failed&no_of_jobs=100&customerid=&job_class=&jobid=48298&jobid=56538&kill=++++++++Kill+++++

When executing such a test where the param %jobid% declared as a vector, the request does not look as expected. Please see the request below.

call unit.web.HTTPGotoRequest with
 %Web.Session.User% %Web.Task.User%
 %Web.Session.Pass% %Web.Task.Pass%
 %PathAbs% %Web.Job.URL%
 %Params% with
  %daofactoryid% %Task.DataSource%
  %status% failed
  %no_of_jobs% 999
  %jobid% withvector
   31362
   31367
  end
  %kill% kill
 end
end

HTTPGotoRequest/CreateRequest will not do any type conversion any than to convert to a string. Vectors have no default conversion to strings (as it would not be certain what is desired). You'll have to manually enter the format that the server is expecting for the jobid parameter.
