Summary: Static external type function ignoring packageName property

Description Justin Spadea CLA 2011-09-12 17:37:31 EDT 
externalType Class type JavaObject{packageName = "java.lang"}
	 static function forName(name string in) returns(Class);
end

package pkg;
program prog
	function main()
		c Class? = Class.forName("my.test");
	end
end



Generates:

		Class c = null;
		String eze$Temp1 = Constants.EMPTY_STRING;
		eze$Temp1 = "my.test";
		c = pkg.Class.forName(eze$Temp1);

It's using the EGL package instead of the value from packageName.

Fixed with a change to ExternalTypeTemplates.  When accessing static functions and fields, we'll pay attention to @packageName and @externalName on the ET.

Note, at the moment there's a separate bug in the generator which prevents your testcase from generating clean code.  To work around it, put the declaration and initialization of variable 'c' in different statements.
