Alexander Gavrilov commented on TAP5-1493:
------------------------------------------
See java.lang.Method.isBridge()
Class should have two methods with the same name and with different return
types. One of them should me marked as a bridge.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/289731/what-java-lang-reflect-method-isbridge-used-for
Our task is to filter bridge method out and use bridged one
> Property expressions on properties that are covariant on a base class use the
> type of the base class property, not the covariant subclass

> Here property bar is covariant; the subclass (Foo) changes the type of the
> return value (from AbstractBar to just Bar). Assuming that Bar is a subclass
> of AbstractBar, that's fine.
> The bug is that in this circumstance, the PropertyConduitSource sees the type
> of
> property "bar" of class Foo as AbstractBar, not Bar.
> Interestingly, a little debugging showed that the getter method for property
> bar was "public AbstractBar Foo.getBar()" ... in other words, much like with
> Generics, covariant return types may be largely
> a fiction of the compiler inserting the necessary casts in place.
