[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (JASSIST-39) failure to compile an instance method which invokes a static method in a different class and both methods have the same return type, name and argument types

failure to compile an instance method which invokes a static method in a different class and both methods have the same return type, name and argument types ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Key: JASSIST-39 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JASSIST-39 Project: Javassist Issue Type: Bug Reporter: twieger Assignee: Shigeru Chiba Fix For: 3.13.0.GA The testcase below demonstrates the problem. The first invocation of CtNewMethod#make works, the second one fails. It looks like the problem is related with MemberResolver#lookupMethod. The check to enable the creation of a recursively called method is not precise enough. It actually succeeds, although the current method is an instance method, and the method which shall be invoked is a static method. ========================================== package experimental; import javassist.CannotCompileException; import javassist.ClassPool; import javassist.CtClass; import javassist.CtNewMethod; import org.testng.annotations.Test; public class TestJavaAssist { @Test public void testJavaAssist() throws CannotCompileException { ClassPool classPool = new ClassPool(); classPool.appendSystemPath(); CtClass ctClass = classPool.makeClass("Test"); CtNewMethod.make("public String foox(){return experimental.TestJavaAssist.foo();}", ctClass); CtNewMethod.make("public String foo(){return experimental.TestJavaAssist.foo();}", ctClass); } public static final String foo() { return "foo"; } }
