[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XBEAN-26?page=comments#action_12424879 ] Jeff Genender commented on XBEAN-26: ------------------------------------
+1...but this looks more like a bug fix..IMHO, this does not require RTC...I would commit and close. > [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 > > Attachments: named-constructor-arg-fixes.patch > > > 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. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
