How can I save null into database which the column is int ?

[tomcatlee]

Please check the following code:  

<g:select  id="period" name="period" optionKey="key" optionValue="value" from="[[key:0,value:'Please choose'],[key:'1',value:'everyday']]" value="${remindInstance?.period}" ></g:select>

I want to save NULL to database when user didn't choose peroid, as you can see,the default value is 0,
In controller I add this code:

if(Integer.parseInt(params.period)==0){
              params.period=null
}
but I can't save, the error msseage is :

Failed to convert property value of type [null] to required type [int] for property period; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Cannot convert value of type [null] to required type [int] for property period: PropertyEditor [org.springframework.beans.propertyeditors.CustomNumberEditor] returned inappropriate value

In database this column is nullable.

Any suggestion?
Thank you.

Change it to Integer in the domain class.
