ContextHandler have a bug

[single]

In the inner class "DescendantContextInstantiator" of class "ContextHandler", the GetContextConstructor Method is :

private sealed class DescendantContextInstantiator : ContextInstantiator {
protected override ConstructorInfo GetContextConstructor() {
return ContextType.GetConstructor(new Type[] {
typeof (string[]),
typeof (IApplicationContext)});
}
}


But the constructor of class XmlApplicationContext is :
public XmlApplicationContext(
IApplicationContext parentContext,
params string[] configurationLocations) {}


so, the section 3.16. "Service Locator access" of reference document is not available.

Hiya

Yes, thats a bona-fide bug.

I have committed a fix to the CVS HEAD, and have created a JIRA issue to track the issue to its resolution. The issue will be resolved when unit / integration tests are in place to actually test the logic of the ContextHandler class (definitely before the 1.0 final release in two weeks).

Thanks for spotting this prior to the 1.0 final release.

Ciao
