Christophe Lombart reassigned JCR-1889:
---------------------------------------
Assignee: Christophe Lombart
> Incorrect support for java interfaces in typed collection fields
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: JCR-1889
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-1889
> Project: Jackrabbit
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.4, 1.5.0
> Reporter: Christophe Lombart
> Assignee: Christophe Lombart
>
> If a typed collection field is defined with an Interface as the type, the
> following exception is thrown when the main object is inserted :
> org.apache.jackrabbit.ocm.exception.JcrMappingException: Cannot load class
> interface [name of the interface];
> Here is a example :
> @Node
> public class EntityA {
> @Field(path=true) String path;
> @Collection List<MyInterface> entityB;
> ....
> }
> When inserting a new instance of EntityA with a not null entityB, the
> exception is thrown.
> A workaround is to add the elementClassName on the annotation @Collection.
> ex. :
> @Collection (elementClassName=MyInterface.class) List<MyInterface> entityB;
> elementClassName is used only for untyped collections but if you specify it
> for a typed collection, the ObjectContentManager will not use reflexion to
> check the collection class name.
>
> This should be nice to avoid the usage of elementClassName for typed
> collections.
