Harry Levinson closed LANG-789.
-------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
Thanks Marcos, closing this issue now.
It turned out to be a bug in my code elsewhere, and not the clone "bug" issue I
submitted.
I was able to run a version of your code that ran fine. Also fixed my own code
and disabled the clone workaround I developed for the child class, all works
fine now.
Thanks again for looking at this, sorry to waste your time!
> SerializationUtils clone method fails to perform some deep cloning
> ------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LANG-789
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-789
> Project: Commons Lang
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: lang.*
> Affects Versions: 3.1
> Environment: Windows 7, Java 7 (1.7.0_03), Apache Commons Lang 3.1,
> NetBeans 7.1
> Reporter: Harry Levinson
> Labels: ,, clone,, externalizable,, serializable
>
> SerializationUtils clone method fails to perform some deep cloning of at
> least some objects containing Externalizable subobjects.
> Here is the @version text from the SerializationUtils.java source file:
> SerializationUtils.java 1199718 2011-11-09 12:43:20Z sebb $
> To reproduce possible bug:
> 1. Create two classes (let's call them Parent and Child) and mark both as
> "implements Externalizable".
> 2. Write required Externalizable methods readExternal and writeExternal
> 3. Make Child a private member/field of Parent
> 4. Write code to override toString if necessary for Parent and Child
> 5. Create a separate Java class to test creation and cloning of Parent and
> Child
> 6. In the test class write to code to do this:
> a. Create a Parent object
> b. Create a Child object
> c. Attach Child to Parent via setter
> d. Print out Parent object
> e. Use SerializationUtils.clone() to clone Parent (call it ParentClone)
> f. Print ParentClone
> 7. Compare print output of Parent and ParentClone, observe that ParentClone
> does not contain Child object
