[jira] Updated: (VELOCITY-132) IllegalArgumentException while calling an overloaded method

["Will Glass-Husain (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VELOCITY-132?page=all ]

Will Glass-Husain updated VELOCITY-132:
---------------------------------------

    Bugzilla Id:   (was: 16707)
    Fix Version: 1.5
                     (was: 1.4)
    Description: 
If there are two methods with the same name and different parameters like:
public class myClass
{
    public String foo ( Integer intObj );
    public String foo ( String str );
}

and a velocity template like this

$myObj.foo( $someObj.getNull() )
$myObj.foo( $str )

while $someObj.getNull() returns null and $str is a java.lang.String object
with a String like 'test'. Because velocity caches the first method with the 
Integer argument on calling with the parameter null (which isn't of course of 
any type/class) the call fails with the String argument, because velocity tries
to call the foo( Integer intObj )!

In the velocity log appears a IllegalArgumentException which is right, but 
velocity should call the right method!
