metaBean

public MetaBean metaBean()

Description copied from interface: MetaProperty

Gets the meta-bean which owns this meta-property.

Each meta-property is fully owned by a single bean.

Returns:

the meta-bean, not null

declaringType

public java.lang.Class<?> declaringType()

Description copied from interface: MetaProperty

Get the type that declares the property, represented as a Class.

This is the type of the bean where the property is declared.

Returns:

the type declaring the property, not null

propertyType

public java.lang.Class<P> propertyType()

Description copied from interface: MetaProperty

Get the type of the property represented as a Class.

This is the type of the property. For example, the surname of a person would typically be a String.

Returns:

the type of the property, not null

propertyGenericType

public java.lang.reflect.Type propertyGenericType()

Description copied from interface: MetaProperty

Gets the generic types of the property.

This provides access to the generic type declared in the source code.

Returns:

the full generic type of the property, unmodifiable, not null

style

public PropertyStyle style()

Description copied from interface: MetaProperty

Gets the style of the property, such as read-only, read-write or write-only.

Rather than testing against specific values, it is strongly recommended to call the helper methods on the returned style.

Returns:

the property style, not null

annotation

public <A extends java.lang.annotation.Annotation> A annotation(java.lang.Class<A> annotationClass)

Description copied from interface: MetaProperty

Gets an annotation from the property.

The annotations are queried from the property. This is typically accomplished by querying the annotations of the underlying instance variable however any strategy is permitted..

Type Parameters:

A - the annotation type

Parameters:

annotationClass - the annotation class to find, not null

Returns:

the annotation, not null

annotations

public java.util.List<java.lang.annotation.Annotation> annotations()

Description copied from interface: MetaProperty

Gets the annotations of the property.

The annotations are queried from the property. This is typically accomplished by querying the annotations of the underlying instance variable however any strategy is permitted.

Returns:

the annotations, unmodifiable, not null

get

public P get(Bean bean)

Description copied from interface: MetaProperty

Gets the value of the property for the specified bean.

For a standard JavaBean, this is equivalent to calling getFoo() on the bean. Alternate implementations may perform any logic to obtain the value.

Parameters:

bean - the bean to query, not null

Returns:

the value of the property on the specified bean, may be null

set

public void set(Bean bean,
                java.lang.Object value)

Description copied from interface: MetaProperty

Sets the value of the property on the specified bean.

The value must be of the correct type for the property. For a standard JavaBean, this is equivalent to calling setFoo() on the bean. Alternate implementations may perform any logic to change the value.

Parameters:

bean - the bean to update, not null

value - the value to set into the property on the specified bean, may be null
