Hi all,
I'm trying to use the class-field property in a java semantics module
and I'm having an issue with boolean properties. I am trying to
access a property named isPrimary which returns a boolean like so:
<parameter identifier="primary">
<class-field field="primary"
value="true">GenericComparable</class-field>
</parameter>
I get an exception from this stating that
org.drools.smf.FactoryException: Field 'primary' does not exist for
Class 'GenericComparable'.
I know this does exist, and after looking at the drools code, I see
the following:
// make sure field getter exists
clazz.getMethod( "get" + fieldName.toUpperCase( ).charAt
( 0 ) + fieldName.substring( 1 ),
(Class[]) null );
which obviously doesn't work because my accessor starts with "is".
Is there any plan to support something like this in the future (it's
been in the JavaBean spec for a while, in section 8.3.2)?
By the way, I tried to change my getter just to see if it works, but
it still fails on the following in ClassFieldObjectType.matches(),
because it returns a Boolean (true) and compares that to a String
("true").
result = this.getterMethod.invoke( object, ( Object[] )null ).equals
( this.getFieldValue( ) )
Can we use boolean types in class-field?
Thanks for a great api,
Jason
