Hi all.
I've been running into a problem that appears to be in how beanutils is
dealing with information returned from java.beans.Introspector.
I've created a bean that is similar to the following:
public class SampleBean {
private String bound;
public void setBound(String bound) { this.bound = bound; }
public String getBound() { return bound; }
public boolean isBound() { return Utils.toBoolean(bound); }
}
When I use digester to populate the bean the setBound is never called and
the information is lost. Looking in the log file I find that beanutils says
"Skipping read-only property". If I remove the isBound method everything
works just fine. If I leave the isBound and remove the getBound method
beanutils gets upset as "get" is hardcoded and does not accept the "is" form
of a getter.
It appears that java.beans.Introspector is returning three descriptors and
beanutils can only deal with two descriptors and therefore misses the
setter. This is my impression. I was very frustrated by this time, however
it appears that beanutils is hardcode for position 1 and 2 in the
Introspector array to find the getter and setter.
I've checked version 1.6.1, 1.5, and 1.4 with the same results.
Have I missed something?
Thanks,
Kenneth.
