[CLJ-1022] gen-class destroys method annotations

Tue, 3 Jul 2012 06:19:26 -0500

When extending a class gen-class doesn't preserve method annotations.

If class com.bar.Foo has annotated methods then in MyClass all annotations are gone.

(gen-class
:name com.my.MyClass
:extends com.bar.Foo
:implements [com.google.common.base.Supplier]
:prefix demo-
:post-init post-init)

(defn demo-post-init [this]
(info "initialized")
(swank.swank/start-server :port 68478))

(defn demo-get [_]
(get-msg))

Class<?> aClass = Class.forName("com.my.MyClass");
Method[] methods = aClass.getMethods();

for (Method m : methods) {
Annotation[] annotations = m.getAnnotations();
System.out.println(m.getName()+" "+annotations.length);
for (Annotation a : annotations) { System.out.println(a.annotationType().getClass().getName()); }
}
