I didn't know what I would start with this issue, but it seems to be pretty
huge...
Changing stuff from toString() to getCommentBlock() was easy.
Then I started working out the toString() for JavaClass. For classes and
interfaces no problems, but the primitives, void...
public void todo_testToStringVoid() {
cls.setName("com.MyClass");
cls.addMethod(new JavaMethod(Type.VOID, "doSomething"));
JavaMethod javaMethod = cls.getMethods()[0];
assertEquals("void", javaMethod.getReturns().getJavaClass().toString());
}
public void todo_testToStringInt() {
cls.setName("com.MyClass");
cls.addMethod(new JavaMethod(new Type("int"), "doSomething"));
JavaMethod javaMethod = cls.getMethods()[0];
assertEquals("int", javaMethod.getReturns().getJavaClass().toString());
}
in both cases getJavaClass() will return null.
On the other hand: watch this URL
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/lang/reflect/Method.html#getReturnType()
aMethod.getReturnType().toString() will return for example the int, although
getReturnType() returns a class.
confusing or not?!?!
