package prv.rli.codetest;What would you expect to be the output? We have a derived Interface which overrides the only method of its base interface in a covariant way. So one method only.
import java.lang.reflect.Method;
public class BreakingInterfaces {
interface Base {
BaseFoo foo();
interface BaseFoo {
}
}
interface Derived extends Base {
DerivedFoo foo();
interface DerivedFoo extends BaseFoo {
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
dumpDeclaredMethods(Derived.class);
}
private static void dumpDeclaredMethods(Class<?> class1) {
System.out.println("---" + class1.getSimpleName() + "---");
Method[] methods = class1.getDeclaredMethods();
for (Method method : methods) {
System.out.println(method);
}
System.out.println("----------");
}
}
If you compile the above examplt with jdk1.7.0.55 the output is indeed:
---Derived---But when using jdk1.8.0.25 the output is:
public abstract BreakingInterfaces$Derived$DerivedFoo BreakingInterfaces$Derived.foo()
----------
---Derived---For reasons unknown to me, the base class method resurfaces here which may lead to unwanted behaviour when using reflection.
public abstract prv.rli.codetest.BreakingInterfaces$Derived$DerivedFoo prv.rli.codetest.BreakingInterfaces$Derived.foo()
public default prv.rli.codetest.BreakingInterfaces$Base$BaseFoo prv.rli.codetest.BreakingInterfaces$Derived.foo()
----------
