[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (AS7-5072) value-type not set for ObjectTypeAttributeDefinition when used inside ObjectListAttributeDefinition

value-type not set for ObjectTypeAttributeDefinition when used inside ObjectListAttributeDefinition --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: AS7-5072 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-5072 Project: Application Server 7 Issue Type: Bug Components: Domain Management Reporter: Jeff Mesnil Assignee: Tomaz Cerar I am not able to define an attribute properly and it seems there is a bug with setting value-type on an ObjectTypeAttributionDefinition. I have a CoreAddressDefinition which defines a runtime read-only attribute "roles". This attribute is a LIST of OBJECT named "role". This OBJECT is composed of a STRING attribute "name" and many BOOLEAN attributes (from the SecurityRoleDefinition). They are represented by: private static final AttributeDefinition NAME = create("name", ModelType.STRING) .build(); private static final ObjectTypeAttributeDefinition ROLE = ObjectTypeAttributeDefinition.Builder.of(CommonAttributes.ROLE, new AttributeDefinition[] { NAME }, SecurityRoleDefinition.ATTRIBUTES) .build(); static final AttributeDefinition ROLES = ObjectListAttributeDefinition.Builder.of(CommonAttributes.ROLES_ATTR_NAME, ROLE) .setFlags(AttributeAccess.Flag.STORAGE_RUNTIME) .build(); After they are registered (using a DefaultResourceDescriptionProvider), the value-type of the OBJECT attribute is not set. I was expecting it to be the concatenation of the various valueTypes I passed to the ROLE attribute. { "description" => "A runtime-only resource representing a HornetQ \"address\". Zero or more queues can be bound to a single address. When a message is routed, it is routed to the set of queues bound to the message's address.", "attributes" => {"roles" => { "type" => LIST, "description" => "A list of the security roles (name and permissions) associated with the address.", "expressions-allowed" => false, "nillable" => false, "value-type" => {"role" => { "type" => OBJECT, "description" => "A security role associated with the address.", "expressions-allowed" => false, "nillable" => false }} }}, "operations" => undefined, "children" => {} } I did a dew debugging and one thing that I don't understand is why in ObjectListAttributeDefinition, the 3 implementations of addValueTypeDescription are different and only 1 will check whether the value type corresponds to an OBJECT. Using a DefaultResourceDescriptionProvider I end up using ObjectListAttributeDefinition#addAttributeValueTypeDescription(final ModelNode node, final ResourceDescriptionResolver resolver, final Locale locale, final ResourceBundle bundle) which does *not* set the value-type. To reproduce this failure, you can run mvn clean install -pl messaging from my branch, all the tests fail because of this one: https://github.com/jmesnil/jboss-as/tree/AS7-4790_ResourceDefinition_conv...
