Seam remoting cannot decode Collection objects correctly
--------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBSEAM-2547
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBSEAM-2547
             Project: JBoss Seam
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Remoting
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0.GA
         Environment: JBoss 4.x AS, Javascript and Seam Integration
            Reporter: P C
         Assigned To: Shane Bryzak


Through the use of Seam Remoting, I find that there is a "bug" in how seam decodes Collection objects on the client side (javascript). For example, on the server side, I am doing the following in a stateless seam bean:

@Stateless at Name ("test")
class TestAction implements Test {

List getTestItems() {...}

}

On the Client Side (Javascript):

var test = Seam.Component.getInstance("test");
test.getTestItems(callBack);

var callBack(result) {

}

When the seam proxy decodes the message it cannot determine the object types inside the returned collection so it returns someting undefined. But if I define Generics then it works:

List<ConcreteClass> getTestItems() {...} 

It seams to me that the Seam Proxy has trouble parsing objects in an abstract collection.
