Description

Class fields are not set if class is inherited from HashMap, value is put in HashMap instead.
I tried this simple test with Digester 1.6, 1.7, 1.8 and 2.0. It works with commons-beanutils-1.7.0, but does not work with commons-beanutils-1.8.0. JUnit 4.4 was used for testing.

================ Class to be instantiated from XML ==========================
import java.util.HashMap;

public class MyClass extends HashMap<String, String> {
private boolean flag = false;

public boolean isFlag()

{ return flag; }

public void setFlag(boolean flag)

{ this.flag = flag; }

}

================= Test ===================
import static org.junit.Assert.assertTrue;

import java.io.ByteArrayInputStream;
import java.io.IOException;

import org.apache.commons.digester.Digester;
import org.junit.Test;
import org.xml.sax.SAXException;

public class TestDigester {

@Test
public void testDigester() throws IOException, SAXException

{ final String xml = "<myclass flag='true'/>"; final Digester digester = new Digester(); digester.addObjectCreate("myclass", MyClass.class); digester.addSetProperties("myclass"); final MyClass res = (MyClass) digester.parse(new ByteArrayInputStream(xml.getBytes())); assertTrue(res.isFlag()); }

}
