[jruby-user] Problems with getValue

[r***@L-3com.com]

I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong here. The Java code works. All the Ruby permutations return nil. How can I get the names I want?

Thanks!

wow. Can you report this as an issue on our github project? I can confirm
this does not work. My guess is getValue is public in the interface but
non-public in the concrete class of TransferAction. We actually use
reflection to get around these odd cases so I don't understand why this is
not working.

Yeah, this is really interesting. I wrote a test script at
https://gist.github.com/keithrbennett/10275705 that also illustrates that
the Action's method names are not rubified, i.e. getValue cannot be
accessed as value. I got the same result in JRuby 1.7.1 and 1.7.9.

Might it be an issue with JRuby's handling of inner classes in Java?

JRuby reports that the action is an instance
ofJava::JavaxSwing::TransferAction,
whereas a web page at
http://www.cs.rit.edu/usr/local/pub/swm/jdoc1.6.0_19/javax/swing/TransferHandler.TransferAction.htmlsays
that TransferAction is an inner class of TransferHandler.

Yeah, it could be something to do with the inner class relationship too.
Amazed we have not seen this one before. Lots of a folks have done Swing
stuff using JRuby.

I tried to report it on GitHub yesterday, but the buttons weren't working. I suspect the corporate firewall/mandated browser are to blame. I'll try tonight from home unless someone beats me to it.

Is there any way I can work around it for now (besides writing Java code :-)?

If you can dig out the java_object from the TransferHandler you should be
able to use Java reflection APIs + setAccessible. If you search for JRuby
setAccessible something might turn up. It is pretty gruesome workaround
but it should work.

That does sound gruesome. I have a less-gruesome (but more evil) hack implemented right now. I'll submit the bug report, and hopefully the hack will last long enough for the bug to be fixed and released.

Thanks!
