`@`ME :
I'm quite suprised... I annoted a method `@`MyAnnotation, in order to
intercept calls of this method. My problem is when I instanciate an object
which has a such annotation using guice. when i search the annoted method
through reflection, and i call isAnnotationPresent(MyAnnotation.class),
this method returns false!
`@`jesse`@`swank.ca: Under the hood, Guice creates a subclass of TotoImpl
in order to perform method interception.
For the most part, this is completely transparent to
the developer, but there's a few consequences. getClass()
doesn't return TotoImpl.class. This constraints how your
equals() method must be implemented.
I also expect Serializable won't interoperate with
method interception.
The workaround in this case is to use TotoImpl.class
rather than toto.getClass() to introspect on your
type.
