["Henri Yandell (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-76?page=all ]

Henri Yandell updated LANG-76:
------------------------------

      Bugzilla Id:   (was: 36666)
    Fix Version/s: 3.0
                       (was: 2.3)

I can't see this being fixed in 2.3 (or ever). Assigning to 3.0 for the moment.

> Hi,
> I encountered with problem using EnumUtils.getEnum() in 1.5. It appears that my
> Enum class should be accessed first so constructor will be called. In 1.4 it was
> enough to have myClass.class, so all static members were initialized. In 1.5 it
> doesn't work.
> I noticed that static members are not initialized anymore while acessing to
> class definition. See the code
> public class Test {
>     public static final class TT{
>         public static final TT one = new TT();
>         private TT(){
>             System.out.println("Called TT" );
>         }
>     }
>     
>     public static void main(String[] args) {
>      Class cl = TT.class;
>    // System.out.println( TT.one);
>   //  System.out.println(TT.class.isAssignableFrom(String.class));
>     }
> }
> In 1.4 constructor of TT is called, while in 1.5 is not. 
> Actually, according to the spec
> (http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/second_edition/html/execution.doc.html#57946),
> this is right behavior of Java. 
> Unfortunately, I didn't succeded to think about good solution..
> P.s. I know that in 1.5 we have enum built-in, but it is not the same, and we
> try to move to 1.5 without too much changes
