[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HHH-2268) JDK Bug 5062759 Breaks Hibernate Introspection

JDK Bug 5062759 Breaks Hibernate Introspection ---------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-2268 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2268 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Patch Components: core Affects Versions: 3.2.0.ga Environment: n/a Reporter: James Olsen Assignee: Steve Ebersole Fix For: 4.x Attachments: patch.txt Class#getDeclaredMethods() returns inherited methods - see http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=5062759 This can result in Hibernate failing to determine the correct return type for a method that overrides an inherited method and further constrains the return type. Behaviour is nondeterministic as it depends on the order of the returned array, e.g. public volatile java.lang.Object com.xxx.impl.CPMImpl.getId() // from interface implemented by superclass public volatile com.xxx.api.CPMId com.xxx.impl.CPMImpl.getId() // from superclass implementation public com.xxx.impl.CPMIdImpl com.xxx.impl.CPMImpl.getId() // local The patch checks if the method is 'volatile' and ignores it if it is.
