ident="ref" doesn't work when the target mapping is abstract
------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JIBX-184
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JIBX-184
Project: JiBX
Issue Type: Bug
Components: core
Affects Versions: JiBX 1.1.5
Reporter: Daniel Uribe
Priority: Critical
Attachments: jibx.patch
When a value defined as ident="ref" references an abstract mapping, JIBX tries
to resolve the mapping using the data type for the field, which doesn't work
for abstract mappings.
Sample mapping fragment with problem:
<mapping name="test" class="testRootClass">
<structure name="def" map-as="_def" />
<structure name="ref" map-as="_ref" />
</mapping>
<mapping abstract="true" type-name="_def" class="testDefClass">
<value name="ID" style="attribute" field="id" ident="def" />
</mapping>
<mapping abstract="true" type-name="_ref" class="testRefClass">
<value name="REFERENCE" style="attribute" field="reference" usage="optional"
ident="ref" />
</mapping>
Sample XML fragment:
<test>
<def id="1">
<ref reference="1">
</test>
In the case above, jibx would try to resolve the mapping using the data type of
the reference field in the testRefClass, which is of type testDefClass. The
problem is that the hashmap with the mapping uses the name of the abstract
mapping instead (_def).
----
I would recommend to add another attribute (idref-map-as) to the value element
to specify the name of the abstract mapping to use when matching the
ident="ref" to the appropriate mapping that has the ident="def". This includes
changes to the jibx schema (binding.xsd), as well as changes to the classes
representing the value element (ValueChild & ValueElement) and the class that
builds the binding (BindingBuilder).
Find a patch file attached including those proposed changes.
