Craig Russell updated OPENJPA-251:
----------------------------------
Affects Version/s: (was: 1.0.0)
0.9.7
Fix Version/s: 1.0.0
Thanks for the info, Jonathan. Seems like a good analysis and an easy fix.
Would you be able to provide a patch, and run the build script to verify it
doesn't break anything?

> Given
> public interface A { Object getId(); }
> @Entity
> public class B implements A {
> @Id
> public String getId() { return "foo"; }
> }
> B.class.getDeclaredMethods() will include both "public java.lang.String
> B.getId()" and "public java.lang.Object B.getId()". The order in which these
> two methods appear is NOT DEFINED! Because
> org.apache.openjpa.enhance.Reflection.getDeclaredMethod() returns the first
> matching method, and because that method might well be the abstract one
> retuning Object, OpenJPA will complain that it cannot persist an ID with a
> non-explicit strategy, and throw up.
> Class.getDeclaredMethod() (note singular, not plural) is defined to return
> the method with the most specific return type under these circumstances, and
> should therefore be used. Here's my implementation of
> Reflection.getDeclaredMethod:
> private static Method getDeclaredMethod(Class cls, String name, Class
> param)
> {
> Class[] params = param == null ? new Class[0] : new Class[] {
> param };
> try
> {
> return cls.getDeclaredMethod(name, params);
> }
> catch (Exception e)
> {
> return null;
> }
> }
