Marko Lukša created WELD-1132:
---------------------------------
Summary: TypeVariableResolverTest.testVariableArray() test is
failing on JDK 7
Key: WELD-1132
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WELD-1132
Project: Weld
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.1.8.Final
Reporter: Marko Lukša
Assignee: Marko Lukša
The problem is with how java reflection handles arrays. Different JDKs and
supposedly even different methods in the same JDK use two different
representations of an array:
From http://weblogs.java.net/blog/kohsuke/archive/2008/12/introspecting_g.html:

Note that there's a little overlap between Class and GenericArrayType. a type
like String[] can be represented either as String[].class or
GenericArrayType(String.class). Different JDK methods return different forms (I
filed a bug on this but forgot which one), so your code should anticipate both
patterns.
{quote}
In JDK6 {{new TypeLiteral<Integer[]>() {}.getType()}} returns
{{GenericArrayType(Integer.class)}}, while in JDK7 it returns
{{Integer[].class}}.
Since {{Integer[]}} is not a generic array, we can skip using {{TypeLiteral}}
and simply use {{Integer[].class}} as the expected value. However,
{{TypeVariableResolver}} should also be modified so it never returns
{{GenericArrayType}}, when the array isn't generic.
