http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34443 Summary: [betwixt] Betwixt does not support polymorphic references Product: Commons Version: unspecified Platform: Other OS/Version: other Status: NEW Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: Betwixt AssignedTo: commons-dev@jakarta.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Attached is a patch to commons-betwixt, SVN Head, that enables betwixt to map polymorphic references. I.e. a class has a field of a type, that itself or some of its subtypes are mapped: class A { private B obj; } interface B {} class C implements B {} class D implements B {} This in effect makes it necessary to make the 'name' attribute completely optional (using the property name when necessary) in order to be able to use the element definition from the class descriptor of the reference type: <?xml version="1.0"?> <betwixt-config> <class name="A"> <element name="a"> <element property="obj"/> </element> </class> <class name="C"> <element name="c"/> </class> <class name="D"> <element name="d"/> </class> </betwixt-config> In the current betwixt version, the name attribute of the element for obj is requires so that the name of the created subelement does not depend on the actual type of the reference. The attached TestReferenceMapping provides a unit test for this scenario. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
