project with a global.Global class that does not extend SharedFlowController or the derecated GlobalApp causes runtime exceptions
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: BEEHIVE-1205
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEEHIVE-1205
             Project: Beehive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: NetUI
    Affects Versions: 1.0.2, 1.0.1, 1.0
            Reporter: Carlin Rogers
            Assignee: Carlin Rogers
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: V.Next


To reproduce:
- Add a simple POJO named Global.java in a /global package.
- Build/compile the project. Note that the generated Struts module config files for the page flow controllers in the project (that do not have references to shared flows) will have a property defined by the
<set-property property="sharedFlows" value="__global=global.Global"/>
element with in the <controller>
- Deploy the app on a server and hit a page flow controller begin action. Note the exception.

java.lang.ClassCastException: global.Global
	at org.apache.beehive.netui.pageflow.FlowControllerFactory.createSharedFlow(FlowControllerFactory.java:426)
	at org.apache.beehive.netui.pageflow.FlowControllerFactory.createSharedFlow(FlowControllerFactory.java:406)
	at org.apache.beehive.netui.pageflow.FlowControllerFactory.addSharedFlow(FlowControllerFactory.java:815)
	at org.apache.beehive.netui.pageflow.FlowControllerFactory.getSharedFlowsForPath(FlowControllerFactory.java:498)
	at org.apache.beehive.netui.pageflow.FlowControllerFactory.getSharedFlowsForRequest(FlowControllerFactory.java:456)
	at org.apache.beehive.netui.pageflow.PageFlowRequestProcessor.processInternal(PageFlowRequestProcessor.java:505)
	at org.apache.beehive.netui.pageflow.PageFlowRequestProcessor.process(PageFlowRequestProcessor.java:853)
	at org.apache.beehive.netui.pageflow.AutoRegisterActionServlet.process(AutoRegisterActionServlet.java:631)
	at org.apache.beehive.netui.pageflow.PageFlowActionServlet.process(PageFlowActionServlet.java:158)
	at org.apache.struts.action.ActionServlet.doGet(ActionServlet.java:414)
	at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:707)


The global.Global class in this scenario is just a POJO and not a Shared Flow. When the application is compiled, the NetUI annotation processor (AP) assumes that it is a Shared Flow to support the old deprecated Global.app and generates a Struts module config file that includes a property for this class as a shared flow.

The <controller> element in the generated Struts module config includes the following property...
<set-property property="sharedFlows" value="__global=global.Global"/>

The NetUI AP first looks for any shared flows referenced by a given page flow. If there are none, then it just looks to see if there is a global.Global type declaration, but does not check that it is an instance of org.apache.beehive.netui.pageflow.GlobalApp or a SharedFlowController. Since it finds the global.Global class in this scenario, it adds it as a default Shared Flow.

Then at runtime when we try to load shared flows for the page flow, we fail with a ClassCastException.

Note, this will only occur if a user defines a global.Global class in their NetUI project.

The fix requires a change to org.apache.beehive.netui.compiler.FlowControllerInfo.setSharedFlowInfo() to check that the class inherits from GlobalApp or SharedFlowController.
