Call the method setItemShipGroupQty of ShoppingCart class from a simple method

Hi to all,

I'm trying to call from a simple method the method  
setItemShipGroupQty() of ShoppingCart but actually it accepts only  
some parameters with native type double and int and so it gives to me  
an error from the simple method.

I have tried to add this method and now everything is ok.

public void setItemShipGroupQty(ShoppingCartItem item, Double  
quantity, Integer idx) {
     this.setItemShipGroupQty(item, this.getItemIndex(item),  
quantity.doubleValue(), idx.intValue());
}

Is it ok if I add this method or did you have a different idea to  
solve this problem ?

Thanks in advance

Marco,

     I think we can call any method accepting native types from a  
simple method by just specifying native data type in type attribute of  
<field> element.  I have tried this with boolean and it worked for  
me.  Here is one code snippet from FixedAssetServices.xml:

<set field="startIndex" value="0" type="Integer"/>
<set field="endIndex" value="4" type="Integer"/>

<!-- Extract asset end of life year from field expectedEndOfLife -->
<if-not-empty field="fixedAsset.expectedEndOfLife">
     <set field="expectedEndOfLife" from-
field="fixedAsset.expectedEndOfLife"/>
     <to-string field-name="expectedEndOfLife"/>
     <call-object-method method-name="substring" obj-field-
name="expectedEndOfLife" ret-field-name="expEndOfLifeYear">
         <field field-name="startIndex" type="int"/>
         <field field-name="endIndex" type="int"/>
     </call-object-method>
<else>
     <add-error><fail-property resource="AccountingUiLabels"  
property="AccountingExpEndOfLifeIsEmpty"/></add-error>
     <check-errors/>
</else>
</if-not-empty>
