Subject: NEW ISSUE: Clarify the name implied by setter method for property andreference names
TARGET: sca-javaci-draft-20070926.doc sca-javacaa-1.1-spec-cd01-rev1.pdf DESCRIPTION: @Property and @Reference annotations without the name attribute applied on setter methods require the property/reference name to be computed from the method name. In CAA and CI specs we mention "... name of the field or setter". What happens in the following case? public class WeirdHello { @Property public void setPrefix(String prefix) { ... } @Property public void setprefix(String prefix) { ... } @Property public void setID(String id) { ... } ... } There is nothing syntactically wrong with this class. What will be the propery names in this case? Will setID() method result in a property with name ID or iD ? Is it an error? It is not clear and we need to make it clear. PROPOSAL: Clarify that the name implied by the setter method is the name obtained by removing "set" from the method name. For e.g. setID() will result in "ID", setid() will result in "id" and setPrefix() will result in "Prefix" not "prefix". ++Vamsi Apache Tuscany Committer http://tuscany.apache.org Apache Geronimo Committer and Member of PMC http://geronimo.apache.org
