Henri Yandell updated BEANUTILS-235: ------------------------------------ Fix Version/s: 1.8.0 All reopened issues should be looked at as a part of 1.8.0 and evaluated. > [beanutils] Need getPropertyType(Class theClass, String propName) > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: BEANUTILS-235 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEANUTILS-235 > Project: Commons BeanUtils > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 1.5 > Environment: Operating System: other > Platform: Other > Reporter: Andrea Aime > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.8.0 > > > I've developed a small bean based TableModel, that I use to > display list of beans in JTables. It works nicely as long > as I don't need to display a nested property in the columns, > thats why: the getColumnClass method passes only a columnIndex > information and wants the Class of that column. If I use the > getPropertyDescriptors I would need a lot of extra code to understand > that a property is a nested one, load the correspondend class, and > so on (and I think that this code is the job of BeanUtils), if I > create a new istance of the class with Class.newIstance the dependent > object are set to null and getPropertyType fails... > So I think that it would be nice to complete the functionality of > the PropertyUtils class with a getPropertyType(Class theClass, String > propName) > with the ability to handle also nested properties... -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
