Re: Bean property being set to null by Editor framework even though it cannot be null

Just for the record, if I manually set the problematic property before handling the new proxy to the editor framework, everything works fine.

Hello all,

I have a bean of type A which contains a property of type X which is a JaxB bean (annotated with @XmlRootElement).

I'm editing this being with the help of an Editor<A>.

One of the properties of X is a Boolean which is initialized as Boolean.FALSE on construction. This property is is annotated with @XmlElement(required=true).

I do not care about this property in my Editor - it is supposed to be used only by the back-end. So I don't define any sub-editor to handle it. I just ignore it.

I use the Editor to create a new instance of A. Both A and X are created via RequestContext.create().

When I submit my modifications to the server, I have the exception copied below. I've put a breakpoint on ReflectiveServiceLayer.setProperty, on the line which calls setter.invoke, and verified that the exception is thrown precisely when the framework tries to attribute 'null' as value to the Boolean property which I mentioned above. That property may not be null.

Is this a bug in the framework, or am I doing something wrong? Am I supposed to create sub-editors for every property of the edited entity?

Here is the exception:
