Bug ID: 57132 Summary: ImportHandler.resolveClass() fails to report conflicting import when called repeatedly Product: Tomcat 8 Version: 8.0.14 Hardware: PC Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: EL Assignee: dev@tomcat.apache.org Reporter: knst.koli...@gmail.com I noted this issue when reviewing ImportHandler code after r1633440. I have test case that demonstrates it, but I do not have a fix yet. javax.el.ImportHandler.resolveClass(String name) should throw an ELException if the same class can be ambiguously found in several packages. To do so, it relies on calling findClass(className, true) and on "clazzes" field that is a cache of classes keyed by their "simple class names". A simple class name is the name without its package. If resolveClass("foo") finds class foo in several packages then the first call to findClass() updates the clazzes cache and the second call finds the duplicate when trying to update the cache with a different class. If resolveClass("foo") call is repeated, expected result is to report the error again. The actual result is that the first thing it does is to look into the cache. It finds the first class there and returns it without any errors. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
