Remote lookup for Referenceable returns Reference and not the real object ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: WFLY-1424 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-1424 Project: WildFly Issue Type: Bug Components: Naming Affects Versions: 8.0.0.Alpha1 Reporter: Natasha Biryukov Assignee: Dominik Pospisil In JBoss EAP6.1 Alfa and Beta during remote lookup for obejct that implements Referenceable the coresponding ObjectFactory is not called, as a result the Reference object is returned and not the real one. Code example: public class Fruit implements Referenceable { String fruit; public Fruit(String f) { fruit = f; } public Reference getReference() throws NamingException { return new Reference( Fruit.class.getName(), new StringRefAddr("fruit", fruit), FruitFactory.class.getName(), null); } public String toString() { return fruit; } } public class FruitFactory implements ObjectFactory { @Override public Object getObjectInstance(Object obj, Name name, Context nameCtx, Hashtable<?, ?> environment) throws Exception { Reference localObject1; if (obj instanceof Reference) { localObject1 = (Reference) obj; Object fruit = localObject1.get("fruit").getContent(); return new Fruit((String)fruit); } else { return obj; } } } Fruit f = new Fruit("apple"); context.bind("apple", f); Fruit f1 = (Fruit)context.lookup("apple");
