Rashid Kamran commented on JBMICROCONT-35:
------------------------------------------

Just curious .. Why actually we want to use the collection value that bean already has? because this way it would be a little different in the sense that setXXX means to replace the old property value with the newer one ?

> Same issues apply to Lists, Sets, Maps, Arrays, etc.
> i.e. If the bean already has a collection value for the property that can be
> retrieved using the getter, we should be able to use that collection instance.
> Need to think about the configuration options and rules.
> Current rules are:
> 1) Use class specified in metadata
> 2) Use class specified on setter (if not an interface)
> 3) Use ArrayList
