David Leangen updated FELIX-5666:
---------------------------------
Description:
I'm only guessing as to what the problem is, following some stepping through
the code. I could not find any similar existing test cases, but if the
following does not immediately click for [~bosschaert], I will try to add one.
It appears that, when serializing an object to a "DTO-Type" object to a Map,
some kind of backing object is created.
If the backing object contains a field that instantiates the same DTO, then the
loop gets created.
Example:
{code}
public class MyDtoType {
public String id;
public MyDtoType( String anID ) {
id = anID;
}
public static MyDtoType error() {
return new MyDtoType( "ERROR" );
}
}
{code}
It looks like the serializer keeps calling the error() method infinitely, but I
am not able to easily pinpoint where this happens.
