Policy Assertor in HTTPConduit

[Andrei Shakirin <as...@talend.com>]

Hi,

Looking into HTTPConduit assertor interface implementation:

    public boolean canAssert(QName type) {
        return new ClientPolicyCalculator().equals(type);  
    }

ClientPolicyCalculator.java contains only:

     public boolean equals(HTTPClientPolicy p1, HTTPClientPolicy p2)

so it doesn't override boolean Object.equals(Object) 
That means new ClientPolicyCalculator().equals(type) always returns false.
Am I missing something?

As I understand Assertor is used for transport specific assertions in WS-Policy and is checked in PolicyEngineImpl.supportsAlternative():
...
                if (!(a.isOptional() 
                    || !pipr.get(a.getName()).isEmpty() 
                    || (null != assertor && assertor.canAssert(a.getName())))) {
...

Assertor interface is implemented by HTTPConduit and AbstractHTTPDestination.

But I am not sure that this check really works now for HTTPConduit.

Regards,
Andrei.
