[hibernate-issues] [Hibernate-JIRA] Commented: (HV-128) Support Iterable

Support Iterable ---------------- Key: HV-128 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HV-128 Project: Hibernate Validator Issue Type: Improvement Components: engine Affects Versions: 4.0.0.Alpha2 Reporter: Emmanuel Bernard Assignee: Hardy Ferentschik Fix For: 4.0.0.Alpha3 I tried to implement it myself but several part of the code held me off. It seems ReflectionHelper is fairly buggy. The idea was to convert isCollection, getCollectionClass, isCollectionClass to isIterable, getIterableClass, isIterableClass. It is straightforward except that in various places, the code expect Map to be a subclass of Collection which it is *not*: ReflectionHelper.getIndexedType assumes so ReflectionHelper.getIndexedValue assumes so I suspect Map is not tested. Also the code seems to consider every Collection as indexed (but I might be wrong)
