Travis Schneeberger commented on BEANUTILS-340:
-----------------------------------------------

BTW.  I see that this jira is marked "LATER THAN 1.8.4".  Since there is a working patch (which includes unit tests) could we get this included in the 1.8.4 release?

> PropertyUtils.getPropertyDescriptors is returning the wrong readMethod (and thus the wrong property type) when a method is implemented from a genericized interface, but only on some environments.  This seems to work on Windows, but fails on Linux.  (Compile environment does not matter, runtime environment does seem to matter.)
> Take the following test class:
> {code}
> public class Testing
> {
> 	public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
> 	{
> 		for(PropertyDescriptor desc : PropertyUtils.getPropertyDescriptors(Test2.class))
> 		{
> 			if(desc.getName().equals("something"))
> 			{
> 				System.out.println(desc.getName() + "\t" + desc.getPropertyType() + "\t" + desc.getReadMethod() + "\t" + desc.getReadMethod().isSynthetic() + "\t" + desc.getReadMethod().isBridge());
> 			}
> 		}
> 	}
> 	
> 	// An interface with generics, and with getter and setter defined 'generically'.
> 	public static interface Test<T extends Number>
> 	{
> 		public T getSomething();
> 		
> 		public void setSomething(T something);
> 	}
> 	
> 	// A concrete class using a specific genericization of the interface (Long), with getter and setter implemented appropriately.
> 	public static class Test2 implements Test<Long>
> 	{
> 		public Long getSomething()
> 		{
> 			return(null);
> 		}
> 		
> 		public void setSomething(Long something)
> 		{
> 			
> 		}
> 	}
> }
> {code}
> When run on Windows XP, and working correctly, this prints:
>     something	class java.lang.Long	public java.lang.Long Testing$Test2.getSomething()	false	false
> indicating that it got the 'long' version of the method, and that this method is NOT synthetic or a bridge method.
> However, when run on Linux, this prints:
> something	class java.lang.Number	public volatile java.lang.Number Testing$Test2.getSomething()	true	true
> which is the signature from the interface, and is marked with both synthetic and bridge, indicating that this is not the 'real' method, but the compiler-created method due to generics.
> I think that it should be ignoring the 'synthetic/bridge' method auto-created by the compiler, but I'm not sure why it is environment-dependent.  Perhaps the environment somehow controls the method definition order?  (At runtime, not compile time, obviously.)
