PersistenceUtilHelpe.findMember(Class, String) private method doesn't work with members of a superclass ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HHH-5334 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-5334 Project: Hibernate Core Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 3.5.3 Reporter: Valentino Proietti Assignee: Hardy Ferentschik Fix For: 3.5.x, 3.6 It is clear to me that the line: final Method method = getMethod( clazz, property ); should be replaced with: final Method method = getMethod( current, property ); Thanks private Member findMember(Class<?> clazz, String property) { final List<Class<?>> classes = getClassHierarchy( clazz ); for (Class current : classes) { final Field field; try { field = current.getDeclaredField( property ); setAccessibility( field ); return field; } catch ( NoSuchFieldException e ) { final Method method = getMethod( clazz, property ); if (method != null) { setAccessibility( method ); return method; } } } //we could not find any match throw new PersistenceException( "Unable to find field or method: " + clazz + "#" + property); }
