BeanTest | Bean Testing for Java EE Applications | Object-Relational Mapping library

The Bean is a full object in java passed by reference to the private method so it is the same instance in the main method and the private method.

You are modifying the values of that instance so the changes show up in both places.

The string is more or less a primitive and passed as a copy of the value instead of the exact instance from main. It is a new instance in the private method and so you are modifying a new variable. The changes don't show up in the main method as it is a different entity.

As stated by comments, there are multiple issues with your XHTML code.

1) Use instead of

2) The p:steps component is readonly by default. Set readonly="false" in order to have interactive menu items. In this mode, it needs to be placed somwhere inside a h:form to - I get a javax.faces.FacesException: MenuItem must be inside a form element else.

3) Your menuItems update the p:steps component only. Your other panels won't ever show up this way as they are not updated. You should update an element containing them too. Don't know what updateEntirePage is though, especially when invoked twice.

4) Bean names like Java variables typically start with lower case character.

Try it like this:

I do not see any annotation on BeanTest, meaning, if you are using bean-discovery-mode=all, such beans are considered by default to be in Dependent scope. That implies that their lifecycle is tired to the bean in which they are injected, and a different bean instance is injected in every different bean it is used.

Use the correct scope (if you need application wide bean, ApplicationScope, etc)

It looks like the EqualsMethodTester().testEqualsMethod() needs a EquivalentFactory in that particular case due to the use java.net.URL that does not provide a default empty constructor. So when BasicNewObjectInstanceFactory.create() is called for java.net.URL the call the clazz.getDeclaredConstructor() throw an exception Method threw 'java.lang.NoSuchMethodException' exception.. Basically you just have to implement a EquivalentFactory. An anonymous implementation could be: private EquivalentFactory productEquivalentFactory = new EquivalentFactory() { @Override public Product create() { Product p = new Product(); try { p.setDemoUrl(new URL("http://test.1.url/")); } catch (MalformedURLException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } p.setName("test"); return p; } }; It has to be used with the custom configuration that you already have: new EqualsMethodTester().testEqualsMethod(productEquivalentFactory, configureMeanBeanTests(), "demoUrl");`

For the hashcode just use the equivalent factory and it does the job.

I tested it and it is working.

From: http://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/current/spring-framework-reference/htmlsingle/#aop-proxying

Spring AOP uses either JDK dynamic proxies or CGLIB to create the proxy for a given target object. (JDK dynamic proxies are preferred whenever you have a choice).

If the target object to be proxied implements at least one interface then a JDK dynamic proxy will be used. All of the interfaces implemented by the target type will be proxied. If the target object does not implement any interfaces then a CGLIB proxy will be created.

So basically, if your class has AN interface, spring will proxy it via that interface and thus to properly execute advice, you must reference the bean by Interface. If there is no interface, it will create a CGLIB proxy for the actual class and you can reference the bean by class.

You can override this default behavior and force CGLIB proxies and thus class-based advice by setting: @EnableAspectJAutoProxy(proxyTargetClass=true)

The javadoc of which states: "Indicate whether subclass-based (CGLIB) proxies are to be created as opposed to standard Java interface-based proxies."

I fix the problem by manually set HostName to LocalHostName, before this, HostName is not set:
