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... :)
