JDK Bug 5062759 Breaks Hibernate Introspection
----------------------------------------------

         Key: HHH-2268
         URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HHH-2268
     Project: Hibernate3
        Type: Patch

  Components: core  
    Versions: 3.2.0.ga    
 Environment: n/a
    Reporter: James Olsen
    Priority: Blocker
 Attachments: patch.txt

Class#getDeclaredMethods() returns inherited methods - see http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=5062759

This can result in Hibernate failing to determine the correct return type for a method that overrides an inherited method and further constrains the return type.  Behaviour is nondeterministic as it depends on the order of the returned array, e.g.

 public volatile java.lang.Object com.xxx.impl.CPMImpl.getId() // from interface implemented by superclass
 public volatile com.xxx.api.CPMId com.xxx.impl.CPMImpl.getId() // from superclass implementation
 public com.xxx.impl.CPMIdImpl com.xxx.impl.CPMImpl.getId() // local

The patch checks if the method is 'volatile' and ignores it if it is.
