[RTC] Nested properties not evaluated for named constructor args
----------------------------------------------------------------
Key: XBEAN-26
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XBEAN-26
Project: XBean
Issue Type: Bug
Components: spring
Reporter: Dain Sundstrom
Assigned To: Dain Sundstrom
Fix For: 2.6
Nested property elements are not evaluated when they are constructor arguments.
For example the following three declarations should be equivalent:
{code}
<s:soup id="soupService" type="French Onion"/>
<s:soup id="nestedBean">
<s:type>
<bean class="java.lang.String">
<constructor-arg index="0" value="French Onion"/>
</bean>
</s:type>
</s:soup>
<s:soup id="nestedValue">
<s:type>
<value>French Onion</value>
</s:type>
</s:soup>
{code}
The patch attempts to find a setter for the property and if not located assumes
it is type Object instead of just aborting the evaluation. This means that
constructor args without a matching getter or setter can't support our custom
map element code because we don't knot the type of the constructor argument at
this point in the code. Fixing that will take a much bigger restructure of the
code.
There are test cases included with the patch. Note there is one new file
included with the patch that must be svn added.
