> RI's implementation of Introspector behaves oddly during analyzing some exotic beans. Let's
> look at the following piece of code:
> ---
> import java.beans.*;
> public class TestIntrospector2 {
>    public static class MyParent {
>        public Integer getProp1(int i) {
>            return new Integer(1);
>        }
>        public void setProp1(int i, Integer val) {}
>    }
>    public static class MyClass extends MyParent {
>        public String[] getProp1() {
>            return new String[2];
>        }
>        public void setProp1(String[] val) {}
>    }
>    public static void main(String[] argv)  throws Exception {
>        BeanInfo binfo = Introspector.getBeanInfo(MyClass.class, Object.class);
>        PropertyDescriptor[] pds = binfo.getPropertyDescriptors();
>        for (PropertyDescriptor pd : pds) {
>            System.out.println("Name: " + pd.getName());
>            System.out.println("Descriptor type: " + pd.getClass().getName());
>            System.out.println("Property type: " + pd.getPropertyType());
>            if (pd instanceof IndexedPropertyDescriptor) {
>                System.out.println("Property indexed type: " +
>                        ((IndexedPropertyDescriptor)
> pd).getIndexedPropertyType());
>            }
>        }
>    }
> }
> ---
> The output on RI is the following:
> Name: prop1
> Descriptor type: java.beans.IndexedPropertyDescriptor
> Property type: null
> Property indexed type: class java.lang.Integer
> So it identifies an indexed property here. But it is not correct since
> array accessor methods have the type that differs from the one of
> regular accessor methods. More formal: this is against the design
> patterns for indexed properties described in JavaBeans spec (§ 8.3.3,
> pages 55-56). It was decided in the list [1] that Harmony implementation should report the regular property that has String[] type here.
