[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IBATIS-128?page=comments#action_65118 ] Jerome Lacoste commented on IBATIS-128: ---------------------------------------
Brandon, I posted the message a little bit late and frustrated and I remembered about the out of spec overloading after I left... But still: - iBatis could detect the problem really easily in ClassInfo. By finding out that an entry already exists in the HashMap. if (setMethods.get(name) != null) { // log a warning. An exception would break existing code... } What do you think? Too corner a case to add this check? - I overloaded the set to overcome an issue I had with iBatis when I started using it. I wanted to store a Set in the featureIDs properties but iBatis returned a List from a separate query. So I overloaded the method to make iBatis happy. I didn't know the javaType argument in the SqlMap config at that time. - regarding naming convention, do you mean "featureIDs"? I take a little liberty with the naming convention when using acronyms which I don't consider acronyms to be usual words. Most of the time they represent the first letters of a list of words, which should be capitalized according to Sun specs. ID is a special case of acronym indeed. But that makes reading easier (for me). But that's a personal preference... :) > ClassInfo does not support overloaded methods (e.g. setters) > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: IBATIS-128 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IBATIS-128 > Project: iBatis for Java > Type: Bug > Components: SQL Maps > Versions: 2.0.8 > Environment: iBatis 2.0.7 > Reporter: Jerome Lacoste > > ClassInfo keys setters by their names. > private void addMethods(Class cls) { > Method[] methods = cls.getMethods(); > for (int i = 0; i < methods.length; i++) { > String name = methods[i].getName(); > if (name.startsWith("set") && name.length() > 3) { > if (methods[i].getParameterTypes().length == 1) { > name = dropCase(name); > --> setMethods.put(name, methods[i]); > setTypes.put(name, methods[i].getParameterTypes()[0]); > } > See > http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/ibatisdb/ibatis-dbl-2/src/com/ibatis/common/beans/ClassInfo.java?rev=1.8&view=markup > So if you overload a method in your bean, you never know which one is going > to be stored last in the map. > With: > public void setFeatureIDs(Set featureIDs) { > this.featureIDs = featureIDs; > } > public void setFeatureIDs(List featureIDs) { > this.featureIDs = new TreeSet(featureIDs); > } > I end up with the following error: > Error setting property 'setFeatureIDs(java.util.Set=[2] $Proxy4 implements > interface java.util.List)' of 'Part-20021'.
