Re: cannot write to property without a setter

[Larry Meadors]

That is an interesting pattern - you can't change bah, but you can
change it's properties.

That *should* work, IMO. Can you add an issue in JIRA for that?

Let's say I have a class structure as per below. Ibatis doesl not seem to let me address 
the path foo.bah.someProperty, because there is no setter (Foo#setBah). Specifically, I 
get "com.ibatis.common.beans.ProbeException: There is no WRITEABLE property". 
Spring, on the other hand, is fine with this particular setup, and in fact seems to 
ignore the setBah() method if it exists. Is there a good argument for one way or the 
other?

public class Foo
{
    private Bah bah;

    public Foo()
    {
        bah = new Bah();
    }

    public Bah getBah()
    {
        return bah;
    }
}

public class Bah
{
    private int someProperty;

    public int getSomeProperty()
    ...

    public void setSomeProperty(int someProperty)
    ...
}
