[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Closed: (JASSIST-37) CtField.getConstantValue() for just added fileds

CtField.getConstantValue() for just added fileds ------------------------------------------------ Key: JASSIST-37 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JASSIST-37 Project: Javassist Issue Type: Bug Environment: Java 5, javassist 3.4.ga or javassist 3.6.ga Reporter: Vlad Skarzhevskyy Assigned To: Shigeru Chiba Attachments: AChildClass-generated.class I'm creating tool to verify Java API compatibility I'm converting class files to XML and then XML to classes creating CtClass objects that have empty implementation. Then target is to compare new lib version to API described in XML. project site: http://pyx4me.com/snapshot/jour/signature.html This is what causing the problem: CtField field = new CtField(CtClass.longType, "test", klass); CtField.Initializer initializer = CtField.Initializer.constant(1); klass.addField(field, initializer); // Then later when Object value = field.getConstantValue(); //value is always null and can't be used for comparison. when I call klass.writeFile(); The .class is created correctly and when decompiled I see that int filed is properly initialized . BUT When javassist loads again the generated classes field.getConstantValue(); still null!
