We are using XWork's @Inject in Struts 2.3.1.2 to inject a DefaultObjectTypeDeterminer into a custom type converter. Since upgrading from Java 1.6.0_33 to 1.7.0_25, this injection does not occur about half the time. The other @Inject we use (injecting a ValidatorFactory into a custom ActionValidatorManager configured by struts.actionValidatorManager in struts.xml) is still always working. There are no log messages at any log level that indicate a problem. The container successfully creates the custom type converter bean as evidenced by the log message "java.util.List:com.candyland.web.converters.CandylandCollectionConverter [treated as TypeConverter com.candyland.web.converters.CandylandCollectionConverter@245f96b0]".
Is it possible that this problem occurs because the getDeclaredMethods method in Java 7 no longer returns methods in a consistent order (http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=7023180)?. Per https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/google-guice/rQD5L2O-Po8, this causes Guice to inject objects in an inconsistent order so presumably the Struts container would do the same, but I don't know if that would have any negative effects. This is the relevant code: xwork-conversion.properties: java.util.List=com.candyland.web.converters.CandylandCollectionConverter ... CandylandCollectionConverter.java: public class CandylandCollectionConverter extends XWorkBasicConverter { private ObjectTypeDeterminer objectTypeDeterminer; @Inject public void setObjectTypeDeterminer(ObjectTypeDeterminer det) { this.objectTypeDeterminer = det; super.setObjectTypeDeterminer(det); } ... } As a workaround, we lazily get the DefaultObjectTypeDeterminer by calling Dispatcher.getInstance().getContainer().getInstance(ObjectTypeDeterminer.cla ss). This seems to be a reasonable workaround, but is there a way to fix the injection? -- Patrick --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@struts.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@struts.apache.org
