context.getControlPropertySet() should return null for non-existent annotation
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: BEEHIVE-179
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEEHIVE-179
Project: Beehive
Type: Bug
Components: Controls
Versions: V1Beta
Environment: Windows
Reporter: Lawrence Jones
Priority: Critical
I call
ServiceControl.TypesJarName typesJarNameAnn =
(ServiceControl.TypesJarName)context.
getControlPropertySet(ServiceControl.TypesJarName.class);
in the Impl of my control (ServiceControl). TypesJarName is a valid annotation
which is defined in the public interface but not used in either the public
interface nor in the JCX.
I expected to receive null but instead I get a non-null object with defaulted
values for its members.
This is at odds with the javadoc for the API
ControlBeanContext.getControlPropertySet() and in any case you need a way to be
able to tell whether an annotation is present or not (especially if you have
marker annotations).
