[jira] [Commented] (FELIX-5666) Serializer goes into infinite loop
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-5666?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16107118#comment-16107118 ]

Hi [~dleangen], yes a testcase would be great. Thanks!

> Key: FELIX-5666
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-5666
> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Converter
> Reporter: David Leangen

> I'm only guessing as to what the problem is, following some stepping through the code. I could not find any similar existing test cases, but if the following does not immediately click for [~bosschaert], I will try to add one.
> It appears that, when serializing an object to a "DTO-Type" object to a Map, some kind of backing object is created.
> If the backing object contains a field that instantiates the same DTO, then the loop gets created.
> Example:
> {code}
> public class MyDtoType {
> public String id;
> public MyDtoType( String anID ) {
> id = anID;
> }
> public static MyDtoType error() {
> return new MyDtoType( "ERROR" );
> }
> }
> {code}
> It looks like the serializer keeps calling the error() method infinitely, but I am not able to easily pinpoint where this happens.
