Description Petr Nejedly 2001-12-03 09:48:31 UTC

Define a XML-based BeanInfo description format, implement it
(in core?), make a single entry point in APIs that will merge
the XML BI lookup with standard java.beans.Introspector lookup
and implement soft caching on that level.

I don't believe we'll be able to do this for 3.4, changed target to 4.0

Make dependent on the possibility to register such declarative beaninfos.

Comment 3 Jaroslav Tulach 2009-01-07 15:24:35 UTC

BeanInfos are not used that much anymore.
