Behaviour of getList() with open content properties
I have a question about the correct behaviour of getList().
If I have an open DataObject and I call getList( "foo" ) where foo is
not a defined property or an instance property, I would expect
getList() to return NULL. This is currently the case in Tuscany.
If "foo" is set and later unset, I would still expect getList( "foo" )
to return NULL. However, in this case, Tuscany returns an empty list.
This appears to be a bug in Tuscany but before I raise a JIRA and
write a CTS test I wanted to ask if this is the intended behaviour and
if I am interpreting the specification correctly here.
Thanks,

Thanks, Kelvin. I thought I was seeing different behaviour last week
when I was testing this but I must have had a bug in my test. I've
added a test to the CTS based on your code snippet.
Thanks,
Andy.

Andy,
for the following code snippet ....
List pFoo = person1.getList("foo");
List bar = *new* ArrayList();
person1.set("foo", bar);
pFoo = person1.getList("foo");
person1.unset("foo");
pFoo = person1.getList("foo");
I see pFoo ending up as null
Regards, Kelvin.
