Hello, I'm having an exception while trying to wire up some services using generics with Gemini Blueprint. I've created a simple sample bundle that demonstrates my problem. The Blueprint XML:

<bean id="subDatumDataSource" class="test.SimpleSubDatumDataSource"/>

<bean id="proxyDatumDataSource" class="test.ProxyDatumDataSource">
	<argument ref="subDatumDataSource"/>
</bean>


where ProxyDatumDataSource is defined as

public class ProxyDatumDataSource<T extends Datum> implements DatumDataSource<T>


and SimpleSubDatumDataSource is defined as

public class SimpleSubDatumDataSource implements DatumDataSource<SubDatum>


and SubDatum is defined as

public interface SubDatum extends Datum


The resulting exception is:

org.springframework.beans.factory.UnsatisfiedDependencyException: Error creating bean with name 'proxyDatumDataSource' defined in OSGi resource[bundleentry://85.fwk368471295/OSGI-INF/blueprint/module.xml|bnd.id=85|bnd.sym=reified-test]: Unsatisfied dependency expressed through constructor argument with index 0 of type [test.DatumDataSource]: Could not convert constructor argument value of type [test.SimpleSubDatumDataSource] to required type [test.DatumDataSource]: Failed to convert value of type 'test.SimpleSubDatumDataSource' to required type 'test.DatumDataSource'; nested exception is org.eclipse.gemini.blueprint.blueprint.container.SpringBlueprintConverterService$BlueprintConverterException: No conversion found for generic argument(s) for reified type interface test.Datum source type test.SimpleSubDatumDataSource| targetType =interface test.DatumDataSource

It seems that since SimpleSubDatumDataSource implements DatumDataSource<SubDatum> instead of DatumDataSource<Datum> Gemini isn't able to perform the conversion? I tried using some different approaches, like a factory method, but I wasn't successful. Is this a bug, or can I work around this somehow?

I'm no expert on Java generics, but module.xml is trying to cause the creation of an instance of the type ProxyDatumDataSource<T extends Datum> in which the type parameter T is "flapping".

So far the only way I've found to work around it is to use a factory method that accepts an Object, e.g.

@SuppressWarnings({ "rawtypes", "unchecked" })
public static ProxyDatumDataSource<? extends Datum> getInstance(Object delegate) {
	ProxyDatumDataSource<? extends Datum> ds = new ProxyDatumDataSource<Datum>(
			(DatumDataSource) delegate);
	return ds;
}


Is this just something Blueprint/Spring can't deal with (in terms of the generics)?

Probably. Personally, I would steer clear of anything more than the most trivial use of generics with Blueprint.
