--------------------------------------

             Summary: @TupleConstructor ignoring inherited standard Java Beans properties
                 Key: GROOVY-8453
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-8453
             Project: Groovy
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: ast builder
    Affects Versions: 2.4.13
            Reporter: Mauro Molinari


Consider this (it can be pasted on the Groovy console):

{code:groovy}
import groovy.transform.TupleConstructor

public class Foobar {
  private Long id;
  
  public Long getId() \{ return this.id; }
  public void setId(Long id) \{ this.id = id; }
}

@TupleConstructor(includeSuperProperties=true)
class Ext extends Foobar {
  String foo
}

Ext.constructors.each {
    println it
}
println 'end'
{code}
 
The result is just:

{noformat}
public Ext(java.lang.String)
public Ext()
end
{noformat}

But {{id}} is a property (as per the Java Bean conventions) and I would expect it to be present in the generated constructors for {{Ext}}.

If I replace {{includeSuperProperties=true}} with {{includeSuperFields=true}}, I get the expected result:

{noformat}
public Ext()
public Ext(java.lang.Long)
public Ext(java.lang.Long,java.lang.String)
end
{noformat}

But in more complex cases, {{includeSuperFields=true}} will include unwanted fields that are not actually properties.

Discussing this on the users mailing list with Paul King, here is his feedback:

I think @Builder and @ToString originally had similar issues and we added an `allProperties` attribute with default true. Perhaps that is needed here too
