Wrong result for .isAssociation() call when you have a mappedBy closure

[mvinas1977]

I found something that looks like a gorm issue

I have this simple model

abstract class BaseDomain {
    User createdBy

    static constraints = {
        createdBy(nullable: false)
    }
}

class User extends BaseDomain {

    String userName
    User supervisor

    static constraints = {
    }

    static mappedBy = [
        createdBy: null
    ]
}

class Data extends BaseDomain {

    String otherField
}

If you look user it has this mappedBy closure

static mappedBy = [
    createdBy: null
]

because I don't want to have createdBy mapped automatically to the user set in supervisor, we really have a listener to set it.

I need to know if the property createdBy is an association or not, so I do:

def app = Holders.getGrailsApplication()
GrailsDomainClass dc = app.getArtefact(DomainClassArtefactHandler.TYPE, Data.name)
 assert dc.getPersistentProperty(propertyName).isAssociation()

It returns false when it should return true, if User has no mappedBy closure, it works fine

I have an application shared with this domain classes and a couple of tests cases to reproduce this error if you like use it

https://github.com/mvinas1977/gorm-association-issue

this happens in grails 2.5.6 I didn't test it in grails 3.3.x yet

In grails 3.3.5 it works fine, so this only affects to grails 2.5.x

@mvinas1977 can you add also provide GORM and NEO4J-GROM versions.

@mvinas1977 please open it in GORM and list the env as well ... https://github.com/grails/grails-data-mapping
