Holly Cummins resolved ARIES-874.
---------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Fix Version/s: 1.0
> Blueprint should treat "value-type" on a map as a default, not a requirement
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARIES-874
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARIES-874
> Project: Aries
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Blueprint
> Affects Versions: blueprint-0.4.0
> Reporter: Holly Cummins
> Assignee: Holly Cummins
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.0
>
>
> We have six failures in the OSGi blueprint compliance tests with errors
> similar to the following:
> "Unable to convert value 1.0 to type java.lang.Boolean"
> I've done a bit of digging and the problem happens when a <map> in a
> blueprint.xml specifies a value-type. Since ARIES-703, the MapRecipe converts
> every value in the collection to the value-type. However, the specification
> describes the value-type as follows: "Optional default type for values." That
> is, the value-type is only a default, and individual entries in the map can
> override the type.
> We're seeing failures because we're trying to convert values which are
> declared as double to the default type for the map, boolean.
> I've updated MapRecipe to check if there is a value specified on the type,
> and use that for the conversion where possible. What I ended up with is
> fairly similar to what CollectionRecipe already does, reassuringly. I've also
> done the same thing for key-types. Finally, our tests for constructing maps
> were commented out, so I've re-enabled them and added some extra ones to test
> these more complex scenarios.
