Remco commented on CXF-5997:
----------------------------
According to the javabeans spec, the isX method is ONLY allowed to be used for
basic boolean types, NOT the java.lang.Boolean object.
So I expect cxf to generate a getX method for java.lang.Boolean objects instead
of an isX method. But still generate an isX method for basic boolean types.
Frameworks which use the java.beans.PropertyDescriptor to retrieve the
readMethod will be unable to get the methods since the PropertyDescriptor
expects a getX method for java.lang.Boolean objects.
Code snippet from dozer which throws an Exception:
@Override
protected Method getReadMethod() throws NoSuchMethodException {
Method result =
getPropertyDescriptor(srcDeepIndexHintContainer).getReadMethod();
if (result == null) {
throw new NoSuchMethodException("Unable to determine read method for
Field: " + fieldName + " in Class: " + clazz);
}
return result;
}
private PropertyDescriptor getPropertyDescriptor(HintContainer
deepIndexHintContainer) {
if (pd == null) {
pd = ReflectionUtils.findPropertyDescriptor(clazz, fieldName,
deepIndexHintContainer);
if (pd == null) {
MappingUtils.throwMappingException("Property: " + fieldName + " not
found in Class: " + clazz);
}
}
return pd;
}
Copied from the spec
http://download.oracle.com/otndocs/jcp/7224-javabeans-1.01-fr-spec-oth-JSpec/
(notice the usage of a boolean with lower case b instead of a Boolean):
Boolean properties
In addition, for boolean properties, we allow a getter method to match the
pattern:
public boolean is<PropertyName>();
This “is<PropertyName>” method may be provided instead of a “get<PropertyName>”
method, or it may be provided in addition to a “get<PropertyName>” method.
In either case, if the “is<PropertyName>” method is present for a boolean
property then we will use the “is<PropertyName>” method to read the property
value.
An example boolean property might be: public boolean isMarsupial(); public void
setMarsupial(boolean m)

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-5997
> Project: CXF
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0, 3.0.1
> Environment: Maven, cxf-codegen-plugin
> Reporter: Remco
> Assignee: Freeman Fang
> Priority: Minor
>
> We use the cxf maven plugin to generate ws code from a set of wsdl's.
> But we run into an issue with cxf, it generates isX methods instead of getX
> methods for java.lang.Boolean types. This is not in accordance with the
> javabeans spec. According to the java spec it is only allowed to use isX
> methods for the basic boolean type.
> Other frameworks which try to retrieve the readmethods using the
> java.beans.PropertyDescriptor throw a NoSuchMethodException on the read
> method for this field since it expects a getX method instead of an isX method.
> After googling a bit I found this plugin:
> http://cxf.apache.org/cxf-xjc-boolean.html
> But this plugin also generates getX methods for the basic boolean type, which
> will also not work with frameworks using the PropertyDescriptor since it then
> expects an isX method.
