Method Detail

getProperty

Object getProperty(String name)

Returns the property with the given name registered in the current request/response exchange context, or null if there is no property by that name.

A list of supported properties can be retrieved using getPropertyNames(). Custom property names should follow the same convention as package names.

Parameters:

name - a String specifying the name of the property.

Returns:

an Object containing the value of the property, or null if no property exists matching the given name.

getPropertyNames

Collection<String> getPropertyNames()

Use the getProperty(java.lang.String) method with a property name to get the value of a property.

Returns:

an immutable collection of property names.

setProperty

void setProperty(String name,
                 Object object)

Binds an object to a given property name in the current request/response exchange context. If the name specified is already used for a property, this method will replace the value of the property with the new value.

A property allows a JAX-RS filters and interceptors to exchange additional custom information not already provided by this interface.

A list of supported properties can be retrieved using getPropertyNames(). Custom property names should follow the same convention as package names.

If a null value is passed, the effect is the same as calling the removeProperty(String) method.

Parameters:

name - a String specifying the name of the property.

object - an Object representing the property to be bound.

removeProperty

void removeProperty(String name)

Removes a property with the given name from the current request/response exchange context. After removal, subsequent calls to getProperty(java.lang.String) to retrieve the property value will return null.

Parameters:

name - a String specifying the name of the property to be removed.
