JBoss development, A new message was posted in the thread "JBREFLECT-5 - Implementing generics in JavassistClassInfo": http://community.jboss.org/message/532580#532580 Author : Kabir Khan Profile : http://community.jboss.org/people/kabir.khan@jboss.com Message: -------------------------------------------------------------- Trying to run the kernel tests with the jboss-reflect snapshot and javassist implementation with security disabled results in loads of failures. A lot of these seem to be due to BeanInfo never having been tested with the Javassist implementation, and fall into the following categories: * PropertyInfo.getUnderlyingAnnotation() is not working properly w/ Javassist so we get problems in jbossxb since the @XmlTransient annotation is not read * I need to dig in properly, but it seems that when configuring Collection/Map/Array properties, the individual elements are null rather than containing the expected values * There might be more   I am currently creating Javassist versions of the org.jboss.test.beaninfo.test.* tests and fixing what comes up. The first thing I found is that when creating property infos for things like   public class BeanInfoGenericInconsistentTypes {    public BeanInfoGenericClass<String> getSomething()    {       return null;    }      public void setSomething(BeanInfoGenericClass<Integer> x)    {    } }   With the Javassist implementation the 'something' property gets both a getter and a setter, while with introspection it gets only a getter. The code that determines this is this in AbstractBeanInfoFactory.getBeanProperties():                   TypeInfo pinfo = thisSetter.getParameterTypes()[0];                   if (getter.getReturnType().equals(pinfo) == true) The introspection implementation returns ParameterizedClassInfos containing the generic information for the parameter and return types, so it looks like I will need to implement that for javassist anyway. -------------------------------------------------------------- To reply to this message visit the message page: http://community.jboss.org/message/532580#532580
