Constructors are not setAccessible'd like methods are -----------------------------------------------------
Key: JRUBY-5009 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-5009 Project: JRuby Issue Type: Bug Components: Java Integration Affects Versions: JRuby 1.5.1 Reporter: Charles Oliver Nutter Assignee: Charles Oliver Nutter Fix For: JRuby 1.6 We setAccessible methods when security policies allow it and they might need to be accessible (such as when dealing with protected or package-visible members). However, it appears we are not doing this for constructors in the same way. We should make this logic consistent for constructors as well. Notice in the following example that the Foo constructor is package-visible and can't be invoked, but the blah method is also package-visible and invokes fine: {noformat} ~/projects/jruby ➔ cat blah/Foo.java package blah; public class Foo { Foo() {} public static Foo getFoo() { return new Foo(); } void blah() { System.out.println("Hello"); } } ~/projects/jruby ➔ jruby -rjava -e "java_import 'blah.Foo'; Foo.new" -e:1:in `new_proxy': no public constructors for Java::Blah::Foo (TypeError) from -e:1 ~/projects/jruby ➔ jruby -rjava -e "java_import 'blah.Foo'; Foo.foo.blah" Hello {noformat} -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, please visit: http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email
