Robert, Thanks for your response. I've changed the copyright date to 2004 and changed the author to myself for the new classes.
As discussed elsewhere I agree with the decision to leave Bug 23815 but I think that Bug 28813 (getNestedProperty handles Maps with a "dot notation" but setNestedProperty and getPropertyDescriptor do not) should be fixed. This seems a straight bug to me - setNestedProperty and getPropertyDescriptor don't work properly. http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28813 I've now attached revised patches for PropertyUtilsBean and the Test Case that fix just this issue - all I did was change the "while loop" logic in the setNestedProperty and getPropertyDescriptor methods to the same as that in getNestedProperty. What do you think?
