Problems reading DynaBeans from xml using Betwixt

Hi all,

I have been trying to tweak betwixt to allow writing and reading of
DynaBeans. Betwixt currently only supports xml writing through a specialized
case in: 

XMLIntrospector.XMLBeanInfo introspect(Object bean)

if ( bean instanceof DynaBean ) 
...
            // this is DynaBean use the DynaClass for introspection
            return introspect( ((DynaBean) bean).getDynaClass() );
            
        } else {
            // normal bean so normal introspection

Looking at DynaClass interface:

public DynaClass getDynaClass();

DynaClass implementations only implements this getter, not any setters since
done in constructor (would be too dirty I guess!)

What is clearly needed is a setter to allow setting the dynaClass of the
bean when reading the bean from xml. Currently no dynaClass reference is
saved when writing the dynabean to xml, making it impossible to later
reconstruct the bean.

Obvious solution is to use the Adapter pattern. So I created my own
DynaBeanAdapter, DynaClassAdapter and DynaPropertyAdapter, including public
setter methods to allow reading the "dyna-info" from xml using betwixt...

Also created XMLDynaBeanIntrospector, dismissing special DynaBean behaviour.

In the end I get the following result:

String dynaBeanName = "dynabean";
String xmlStr = write(dynaBeanName, dynaBean);
DynaBeanAdapter dynaBeanM = (DynaBeanAdapter) read(xmlStr, dynaBeanName,
DynaBeanAdapter.class);
System.out.println("DynaBean:" + dynaBeanM);

String xmlStr2M = write(dynaBeanName, dynaClassM);
System.out.println("DynaClassM:" + xmlStr2M);


<?xml version='1.0' ?>  <dynaclass class="betwixt.DynaClassAdapter"
className="betwixt.DynaClassAdapter"
dynaBeanClass="org.apache.commons.beanutils.BasicDynaBean" name="Person"
id="1">
    <dynaProperties>
      <DynaPropertyAdapter class="betwixt.DynaPropertyAdapter"
className="betwixt.DynaPropertyAdapter" name="name" type="java.lang.String"
id="2"/>
      <DynaPropertyAdapter class="betwixt.DynaPropertyAdapter"
className="betwixt.DynaPropertyAdapter" name="age" type="java.lang.Integer"
id="3"/>
      <DynaPropertyAdapter class="betwixt.DynaPropertyAdapter"
className="betwixt.DynaPropertyAdapter" name="married"
type="java.lang.Boolean" id="4"/>
    </dynaProperties>
  </dynaclass>

betwixt.DynaClassAdapter@134e4fb
DynaClass:betwixt.DynaClassAdapter@134e4fb
<?xml version='1.0' ?>  <dynabean class="betwixt.DynaClassAdapter"
className="betwixt.DynaClassAdapter"
dynaBeanClass="org.apache.commons.beanutils.BasicDynaBean"
name="betwixt.DynaClassAdapter" id="1">
    <dynaProperties/>
  </dynabean>

As the result indicate, my reconstructed DynaClass object is EMPTY!!!


Problem seems to be, that the BasicDynaBean which I extend in my adapter
does not internally conform to the bean specifications:

protected DynaProperty properties[];
protected HashMap propertiesMap;

public DynaProperty getDynaProperty(String name);
public DynaProperty[] getDynaProperties();

How should I resolve this?

Tried add all these "adapter methods" in my DynaClassAdapter with no luck...
Not totally sure about how maps and arrays are handled in betwixt, the user
guide has very little info on these issues. How exactly are plurals resolved
in the above case. Should be handled by PluralStemmer, so I assume
properties in singular form becomes property!?

Class DynaClassAdapter {
...

    public DynaProperty getPropertiesMap(String name) {

        if (name == null) {
            throw new IllegalArgumentException
                    ("No property name specified");
        }
        return ((DynaProperty) propertiesMap.get(name));

    }    
    
    public void addDynaPropertiesMap(String name, DynaProperty property) {
        propertiesMap.put(name, property);
    }

    public void addDynaPropertyMap(String name, DynaProperty property) {
        propertiesMap.put(name, property);
    }
  
    public void setDynaProperties() {
        setProperties(properties);
    }
        
    public void setProperties(DynaProperty properties[]) {
        super.setProperties(properties);
    }

hi kristian

good to see someone's interested in picking up dyna bean support :)

i'm not going to be able to go through your email and add detailed  
comments tonight but i should be able to find time tomorrow.
