[Springframework-developer] Bug?

[Andy D. <an...@ma...>]

I think I'm seeing a bug in Spring, but thought I'd bounce it off others 
first.  I have a class with multiple constructors, two of which are defined 
as follows:
  public DefaultType(Type superType, String qualifiedName)
and:
  public DefaultType(Type superType, String uri, String name)

I use the following XML to configure:

  <bean
    id="personType"
    class="com.marathon.util.sdo.DefaultType">

    <constructor-arg><ref bean="entityType"/></constructor-arg>
    <constructor-arg><value>m:Person</value></constructor-arg>
    <property name="typeProperties">
      <list>
        ...
      </list>
    </property>
  </bean>

Spring will call the second constructor instead of the first, passing in 
"m:Person" to both String parameters, equivalent to this:
  new DefaultType(entityType, "m:Person", "m:Person")

Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?  This is with Spring 1.0.1 
(release)
