true if the given element can be added to this builder, false otherwise.

add

public void add(ConstrainedElement constrainedElement)

Description copied from class: MetaDataBuilder

Adds the given element to this builder. It must be checked with MetaDataBuilder.accepts(ConstrainedElement) before, whether this is allowed or not.

Overrides:

add in class MetaDataBuilder

Parameters:

constrainedElement - The element to add.
