Setter method annotated by @Option with default value not been invoked when reusing it #2149
Description
Behavior: Setter method annotated by @option with default value not been invoked when reusing it(By saving reusing, I leveraged @Mixin).
For example:
I have a @Mixin class has bunch options
public class InputOptions {
private final static String DEFAULT_ENV = "env";
private final static String DEFAULT_REGION = "region";
private String env;
private String region;
@CommandLine.Spec(MIXEE)
private CommandSpec mixee;
@CommandLine.Option(
names = {"-e", "--env"},
defaultValue = DEFAULT_ENV)
public void setEnv(String env) {
this.env = env;
if (!DEFAULT_ENV.equals(env) && !this.equals(getRoot().inputOptions)) {
getRoot().inputOptions.setEnv(env);
}
}
@CommandLine.Option(
names = {"-r", "--region"},
defaultValue = DEFAULT_REGION)
public void setRegion(String region) {
this.region = region;
if (!DEFAULT_REGION.equals(region) && !this.equals(getRoot().inputOptions)) {
getRoot().inputOptions.setRegion(region);
}
}
public String getEnv() {
if (this.equals(getRoot().inputOptions)) return env;
return getRoot().inputOptions.getEnv();
}
public String getRegion() {
if (this.equals(getRoot().inputOptions)) return region;
return getRoot().inputOptions.getRegion();
}
private T getRoot() {
return (T) mixee.root().userObject();
}
}
I reused this options in other commands(in parents and subcommands as global options, I referred example: https://picocli.info/#_use_case_configure_log_level_with_a_global_option)
But found the behavior that when I define the options, the parent command(parent/child are relevant to the mixee command level) 's @Mixin instance's option will not be invoked at all.
For example, I have command A(toplevel), B(subCommand), C(subsubCommand), all of them has declare d@Mixin InputOptions inputOptions.
Cases:
- Running
A B -e XX C,setEnvinInputOptionsof A is not called at all, but C'sInputOptionssetEnvin called. - Running
A B C -e XX,setEnvofInputOptionsin both A and B is not called at all.
Worth to notice, setRegion has been called in all InputOptions instances in both 2 cases above.
Is this some misbehaving in picocli? I was expecting in any cases, the setters method should be called in all InputOptions options. Thus the default value can be set for the options.
