Subject: Text input to char waveform - bug?

Hi All,

I'm running CSS 3.2.16 in Windows.

I have a BOY text input widget that I want to use to write to a waveform of char, called TEST.
The waveform is empty at startup.
If I type something in the text input, like "abc", I get the following error message in the BOY Console:

2015-03-18 12:04:37 ERROR: Failed to write value to PV TEST from widget Text Input_1.
Illegal input : abc 
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 0

If the waveform is not empty, the string gets updated correctly and there is no error.

If I do the same in CSS in my Linux VM, all works fine, even at startup.

Is this a bug in the Windows version or am I missing something?

Thanks,
Isabella
