inconsistency in property expression when using . for self reference
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: WICKET-2919
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WICKET-2919
Project: Wicket
Issue Type: Bug
Components: wicket
Affects Versions: 1.4.9
Reporter: Joseph Pachod
Priority: Minor
Let's consider this class :
class Container {
String string = "foo";
List<String> strings = Arrays.asList(new String[]{"test"});
}
This would work:
new PropertyModel<String>(container, ".string").getObject()
=> returns "foo"
but this doesn't:
new PropertyModel<String>(container, ".strings[0]").getObject()
it fails with
org.apache.wicket.WicketRuntimeException: no get method defined for class:
class org.demo.PropertyModelTest$Container expression: strings
Similarly, this doesn't work:
new PropertyModel<Container>(container, ".").getObject()
exception is :java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of
range: 0
In the end, should the dot being allowed for self reference ? It's already used
as the property separator, so it would be quite misleading.
I've attached some proper junit test for these points.
