RE: Blueprint issue with generics

2016-09-30 Thread CLEMENT Jean-Philippe
Ah ok. If it’s a matter of toggling the mode, could be even more easy to have a 
flag in the config.properties. Something like 
“org.apache.aries.blueprint.allow-erasure-conversion”.

I may give it a try to look at the code and maybe find a solution, but I doubt 
I would be able to push back the code as we have access restrictions. Anyway if 
the patch is not big I may send the files via emails.

Where to start?

PS: Guillaume, are you the entire Aries team?

I certainly would not oppose extending the ext namespace, or adding a new 
namespace for that.
But I also don't plan to spend a day on that, as there is an easy workaround  : 
this is already available by adding a few lines of xml, or even adding a new 
file, those can be easily done from the pom without any change to your code.  
This file (along with the  converter I gave you) can be added and inline easily 
using the correct maven bundle plugin instructions.
But please go ahead, I'd suggest you start implementing a small external 
namespace handler that will provide an attribute on the main  
element:

Objet : RE: Blueprint issue with generics

This example is a bit particular as “3” has no type. This is not 
the case in the issue I’m facing: both bean, injected one and injection 
receiver have a type. Maybe it would be List injected in a List 
which is kind of incorrect but, in Java there cannot be two methods, one with a 
List and another with a List. So there can be only one match. 
Or it’s a bug which will lead to a ClassCastException somewhere but this is 
another story, not a Blueprint concern.

So I would say:

• If the injected object has no type, then yes, there is no other 
choice than trying to convert to the closest type including generic part

• If the injected object has a type then it should be taken as 
assumption that the generic type part is correct as it is the only solution 
that is available with regards to the Java type erasure specificity

Moreover, what’s the failure added value? Could be more interesting to have a 
fallback strategy isn’t it?

Again, I'm really not sure that would be a good idea.
Some use cases are really useful when actually leveraging parameterized types 
and conversions.
For example, you can have:

  

  
3
5
 
   
  

With

public class MyBean {
   public MyBean(List values) {
   }
}

If we were to enable the conversion globally, all those use cases would run 
into ClassCastException.
See for example 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7738305/spring-conversion-service-from-lista-to-listb

So blueprint does not simply reject things, it does indeed try to convert to 
the correct type to ensure no ClassCastException can be thrown.

I also think that it's the way Spring 4 and CDI work...

Hi Guillaume,

Yep, did not had time to make a full test on all bundles, but the few bundles 
with the Blueprint addition I tested start without the “unable to find 
matching…” errors:




So it’s another workaround possibility, thanks! I’m not too sure of the overall 
startup time impact, but I hope it would be small.

The thing is it’s a bit heavy to declare the workaround (although it’s three 
lines of XML) in almost every bundle. Is there a way to declare a global 
converter available everywhere?

Thanks,
JP

Hi Guillaume,

We do have a lot of classes used in the blueprint which use generics and fail. 
As far as I understand each of those classes should have a converter and each 
bundle making use of them should declare the 2-3 lines you mentioned per 
converter, correct?

The converters are always called.  I don't see why you'd need multiple 
converters, it should be fairly easy to write one which will simply convert all 
erased types to the equivalent with a generic, and that should solve all your 
problems.


Having said that, why having extra converters and Blueprint to get no added 
value?

Because that's how the spec has been written.  We already implemented more that 
what the spec says with ARIES-1500, and I think there's an easy work around.
So please try the workaround first, and we'll see how it goes.

Here's the converter code you can try:

public class ErasureConverter implements Converter {

@Override
public boolean canConvert(Object sourceObject, ReifiedType targetType) {
return targetType.getRawClass().isInstance(sourceObject);
}

@Override
public Object convert(Object sourceObject, ReifiedType targetType) throws 
Exception {
return sourceObject;
}
}

Have you tried using a Converter ? This should fix all your problems quite

which maintains the compile type checking. And like Jean-Philippe, third-party

Re: Blueprint issue with generics

2016-09-26 Thread Guillaume Nodet
I checked the code, but that's currently the only way.

However, one possibility would be to move those 2 lines into a different
blueprint xml file, so that the same file can be included in all your
bundles more easily at build time, as blueprint will by default load all
OSGI-INF/blueprint/*.xml

I have an issue with the way generics are handled in Blueprint. I get an

Let's say I have a bean with the method setSomething(Something) called via 
blueprint with another bean implementing Something => exception. If I change 
the method signature without the generic type setSomething(Something), then it 
works as expected.

Until now I did workaround by changing the method signatures and logging a 
warning but now I'm blocked with a third-party API. So I have to find a real 
solution.

I don't catch why Blueprint cares for the generic type as Java is type erasure. 
So it seems to exceed Java spec. Is there a way to comply with Java type 
erasure, i.e. discard generic types when "converting" beans?

Hi Guillaume,

We do have a lot of classes used in the blueprint which use generics and fail. 
As far as I understand each of those classes should have a converter and each 
bundle making use of them should declare the 2-3 lines you mentioned per 
converter, correct?

Having said that, why having extra converters and Blueprint to get no added

Have you tried using a Converter ? This should fix all your problems quite 
easily, it's only 2 or 3 lines to add to your blueprint.

Dear Aries Team,

The Jira (ARIES-1607) is not assigned. Does it mean it won’t be fixed?

I finally opened a Jira about this issue as I still get problems caused by the 
injection checking system which goes far beyond expectations.

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARIES-1607

I hope it could be fixed :)

Thank you!

Kind regards,
JP

Also would love to see this fixed. My workaround is usually this:

void setSomething(Something s)
to
> setSomething(S s)

which maintains the compile type checking. And like Jean-Philippe, third-party 
APIs mean that if I can I have to create a local extension with a hacked setter 
just to make blueprint happy.

Dear Aries Team,

I have an issue with the way generics are handled in Blueprint. I get an 
exception claiming that the bean conversion is not possible, but it should.

Let's say I have a bean with the method setSomething(Something) called via 
blueprint with another bean implementing Something => exception. If I change 
the method signature without the generic type setSomething(Something), then it 
works as expected.

Until now I did workaround by changing the method signatures and logging a 
warning but now I'm blocked with a third-party API. So I have to find a real 
solution.

I don't catch why Blueprint cares for the generic type as Java is type erasure. 
So it seems to exceed Java spec. Is there a way to comply with Java type 
erasure, i.e. discard generic types when "converting" beans?

Regards,
JP
