Re: [Webmacro-devel] bug or feature?

[Lane S. <la...@op...>]

Hi Sharif,

The problem lies, I believe, in the introspector for WebMacro which is, 
as you discovered, a fairly complex piece of code which makes possible 
the scripting marriage to Java Object instances.

A Hashtable with two signatures:

get(Object)
get(int)

may work in the newer release of WebMacro available via CVS. Did you 
check this version out and try? Also, I do not see a reason why this 
problem could not be solved with a source change.
