I was reading through the BeanSerializer class to try and get a better
understanding of how to write my own custom serializers and noticed
something that seems odd on line 316 of the current code. The relevant
section looks like the following:
313: // Get the property descriptors for the super class
314: TypeDesc superTypeDesc =
TypeDesc.getTypeDescForClass(superClass);
315: if (superTypeDesc != null) {
316: superPd = typeDesc.getPropertyDescriptors();
317: } else {
318: superPd = BeanUtils.getPd(superClass, null);
319: }
It seems like it would make more sense for line 316 to use the
superTypeDesc when invoking getPropertyDescriptors() instead of typeDesc
which refers to the class being serialized.
Thanks,
