CtClass getNestedClasses() returns the same class when applied to an anonymous class

[damdamdam]

Hello everyone,

I think I have found a bug using CtClass.getNestedClasses(). When I apply this method to a CtClass which is an anonymous class, like "com.bla.MyClass$1", it returns the array with the same class as its first element : "com.bla.MyClass$1".

Is this a bug, or am I missing something ? I think it shouldn't return nothing.

ClassPool pool = ClassPool.getDefault();

try{

    CtClass c = pool.get("com.bla.MyClass$1");

    System.out.println(c.getName());

    CtClass[]arr= c.getNestedClasses();

    for(int i = 0; i < arr.length;i++){

        System.out.println(arr[i].getName());

    }

}

catch(NotFoundException nfe){

    nfe.printStackTrace();

}

The result :

com.bla.MyClass$1

com.bla.MyClass$1

Thanks for the replies,

Dam.

Another issue about this method :

I have my anonymous class "com.bla.MyClass$1", which contains another anonymous class, which gives "com.bla.MyClass$1$1".

When I try the getNestedClasses on the first class, it returns the second class (normal I guess, because it is nested), and the first one itself (first bug explained before).

But when I try the getNestedClass on the second class "com.bla.MyClass$1$1", it returns the class itself (the same bug), BUT it returns the declaring class "com.bla.MyClass$1".  Gets me in an infinite loop !

I am trying to search where the problem comes from to fix it. If it's not possible, i would like to know if a class is an anonymous : would be great to have an isAnonymous() method on a CtClass.

Can anybody confirm me he gets the same thing ? And if it is a bug (if not, that's really weird) ?

Anyway, thanks a lot for the brilliant work, javassist helps me a lot in my everyday work !

Dam.

Could anyone log this as a bug please ? I can't access to the Bug Tracker (which is normal I think). Or at least, tell us if it's not going to be corrected. Thanks
