ok, you are right
i looked it up in the java beans 1.01 spec
in chapter 8.8 it says:

> In Introspector.getTargetPropertyInfo() the following code creates a

> I think this issue is not limited to 1.8 beta but also to earlier versions

OK its been a while since I looked at the java beans spec - my first thought is 
you should be using "XValue" as the property name instead of "xValue".
