Public bug reported: Binary package hint: bsh
As noted at http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=1781130&group_id=4075&atid=104075 , bsh does not call the correct method when a subclass has the same static method signature as a superclass. For example: class A { public static String foo() { return "A"; } } class B extends A { public static String foo() { return "B"; } } public class StaticInherit { public static void main(String[] a) { System.out.println("A.foo: " + A.foo()); System.out.println("(new B()).foo: " + (new B()).foo()); System.out.println("B.foo: " + B.foo()); } } If this file is compiled with javac and run with java, it will output A, B, B. However, if entered into Hardy bsh (and run with StaticInherit.main(new String[]{})), it results in A, A, A. This bug has been fixed in beanshell2 (http://code.google.com/p/beanshell2/); see r21 (http://code.google.com/p/beanshell2/source/diff?spec=svn21&old=10&r=21&format=unidiff&path=%2Ftrunk%2Fsrc%2Fbsh%2FReflect.java) . It would be great to merge at least this, and it may be wise to start using them as upstream eventually. ** Affects: bsh (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- bsh handles subclassing and static methods incorrectly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/379304 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
