Routes 'Assign static args' only work for first argument

[c-lee8]

Hi Play Framework team,

I am using play 1.2.7.2 (also tested in 1.4.2 which still contains the problem)

I want to assign a specific route to an existing Controller as described in the section: "Assign static args"
https://www.playframework.com/documentation/1.4.x/routes

GET /properties/condos-for-sale App.allResidences(adType:'sale', type:'condo')

However, only the first parameter is sent to the controller, the controller only receives adType with the String value of 'sale', and the type remains as null. If I remove the first argument or swap the position of the two arguments then type will be assigned to 'condo'. But the second argument will remain as null.

Is there a work around or a fix for this? Integrating this back to 1.2 will be great so that our existing app will be less likely to break from the upgrade.

Thank you!
Chin

@chinyeelee could you show the declaration of the method allResidences in the controller?
Thanks

@xael-fry Thanks Alexandre, our actual api is rather complicated and beyond the scope of the question, so I simplified the usage. Tested with the following:

    public static void allResidences(String type, String adType){
        System.out.println(type);
        System.out.println(adType);
    }

Using:

GET /properties/condos-for-sale App.allResidences(adType:'sale', type:'condo')

Only the first item, that is adType will have the value 'sale'. type remains as null.

@chinyeelee, just removed the space after ',' should make it work.
GET /properties/condos-for-sale App.allResidences(adType:'sale',type:'condo')

I will add a fix to avoid this problem for 1.4.x
