Re: [forge-dev] Method.getReturnType questions

Hey Richard, We don't return a JavaType because there's no way to tell if the type we are returning is actually something we can get the sources of. We could perhaps implement a strategy where if a JavaType is produced for a type such as "java.lang.ArrayList", then we would need to throw "MissingSourceException" if we attempt to perform any operations on that class. Thoughts? All good finds! This API was, as I hinted at before - quickly moved to a state where it could be used, but never "polished") These are certainly things we can clean up. Just put in JIRAs and we'll make sure the kinks get worked out :) ~Lincoln On Sun, Oct 30, 2011 at 1:38 AM, Richard Kennard < richard(a)kennardconsulting.com&gt; wrote: -- Lincoln Baxter, III http://ocpsoft.com http://scrumshark.com "Keep it Simple"
