Static factory method incorrectly recognized as a fluent setter

[bgK]

When using mapstruct 1.3.0.Beta2 with unmappedTargetPolicy = ReportingPolicy.ERROR target classes with a static one parameter factory method fail the build with the error: Unmapped target property: "of".

Example target class

package test;

public class Car {
    private String data;

    public static Car of(String data) {
        Car car = new Car();
        car.setData(data);
        return car;
    }

    public String getData() {
        return data;
    }

    public void setData(String data) {
        this.data = data;
    }
}

Example source class

package test;

public class Car2 {
    private String data;

    public String getData() {
        return data;
    }

    public void setData(String data) {
        this.data = data;
    }
}

Example mapper

package test;

import org.mapstruct.Mapper;
import org.mapstruct.ReportingPolicy;

@Mapper(unmappedTargetPolicy = ReportingPolicy.ERROR)
public interface CarMapper {
    Car toCar(Car2 car2);
}

Expected result

The mapper is generated without error, and without adding configuration to ignore the static factory method.

Perhaps static methods should not be considered as fluent setters?

Indeed static methods should not be considered as fluent setters

Thanks for spotting this @bgK it was not just for fluent setters we were actually considering all public methods. We have now changed this and only public not static methods can be candidates for getters / setters
