[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] Created: (JBMDR-50) Relax the AnnotationCreator string syntax to accept strings in single quotes
Relax the AnnotationCreator string syntax to accept strings in single quotes
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JBMDR-50
URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBMDR-50
Project: JBoss MetaData Repository
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: Annotations
Affects Versions: JBossMDR.2.0.0.GA
Reporter: Scott M Stark
A single line expression like the following
String annotationExpr =
"@org.jboss.managed.api.annotation.ManagementObject(name='testMetaDataRepositoryOverride',componentType=(a)org.jboss.managed.api.annotation.ManagementComponent(type='MCBean',
subtype='MetaDataTest'))";
ManagementObject override = (ManagementObject)
AnnotationCreator.createAnnotation(annotationExpr, ManagementObject.class);
fails with the following because single quoted strings are not accepted. As far as I know
there are no character expression in the grammar, so supporting single quoted strings
simplifies embedding the expression in code since you don't have to escape the double
quotes.
