Isn't that totally independent from a method beeing final or not?
If I have a method:
public int getSum() {
return field1 + field2;
}
Then this would trigger the initialization of the entity (in
JavassistLazyInitializer I assume)
and
public final int getSum() {
return field1 + field2;
}
would not? (if field1 and field2 are persistent fields and field-based access
is used)
Only yesterday I've stumpled upon a related issue in equals(): I've compared a
persistent field of two instances
of the same entity and that _did not_ trigger the initialization of the other
instance proxy. So there I had to use
"If (this.field.equals(other.getField())) { ..." instead of If
(this.field.equals(other.field)) { ..."
and no method of that entity was final.
