Clarify that an array with a variable component type or parameterized component type containing wildcards is not a valid bean type

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      Section 2.2.1 says:

      Almost any Java type may be a bean type of a bean:
      • A bean type may be an array type.

      and:

      A type variable is not a legal bean type. A parameterized type that contains a wildcard type parameter is not a legal bean type.

      This should be clarified that array types that have a type variable or a parameterized type that contains a wildcard type parameter as the array's component type are also not legal bean types.

      Also, all other sections that mention type variables/wildcards should also be reviewed and, if necessary, updated to also specifically mention array types with these kinds of component types.
