Method Detail

instance

public static PropertySupport instance()

Returns the singleton instance of this class.

Returns:

the singleton instance of this class.

propertyValues

public <T> java.util.List<T> propertyValues(java.lang.String propertyName,
                                            java.lang.Class<T> clazz,
                                            java.lang.Iterable<?> target)

Returns a List containing the values of the given property name, from the elements of the given Iterable. If the given Iterable is empty or null, this method will return an empty List. This method supports nested properties (e.g. "address.street.number").

Parameters:

propertyName - the name of the property. It may be a nested property. It is left to the clients to validate for null or empty.

target - the given Iterable.

Returns:

an Iterable containing the values of the given property name, from the elements of the given Iterable.

Throws:

IntrospectionError - if an element in the given Iterable does not have a property with a matching name.

propertyValueOf

public static <T> T propertyValueOf(java.lang.String propertyName,
                                    java.lang.Object target,
                                    java.lang.Class<T> clazz)

Static variant of propertyValueOf(String, Class, Object) for syntactic sugar.

Parameters:

propertyName - the name of the property. It may be a nested property. It is left to the clients to validate for null or empty.

target - the given object

clazz - type of property

Returns:

a the values of the given property name

Throws:

IntrospectionError - if the given target does not have a property with a matching name.

simplePropertyValues

private <T> java.util.List<T> simplePropertyValues(java.lang.String propertyName,
                                                   java.lang.Class<T> clazz,
                                                   java.lang.Iterable<?> target)

popPropertyNameFrom

private java.lang.String popPropertyNameFrom(java.lang.String propertyNameChain)

nextPropertyNameFrom

private java.lang.String nextPropertyNameFrom(java.lang.String propertyNameChain)

isNestedProperty

private boolean isNestedProperty(java.lang.String propertyName)

 isNestedProperty("address.street"); // true
 isNestedProperty("address.street.name"); // true
 isNestedProperty("person"); // false
 isNestedProperty(".name"); // false
 isNestedProperty("person."); // false
 isNestedProperty("person.name."); // false
 isNestedProperty(".person.name"); // false
 isNestedProperty("."); // false
 isNestedProperty(""); // false

propertyValue

public <T> T propertyValue(java.lang.String propertyName,
                           java.lang.Class<T> clazz,
                           java.lang.Object target)

Return the value of a simple property from a target object.

This only works for simple property, nested property are not supported ! use propertyValueOf(String, Class, Object)

Parameters:

propertyName - the name of the property. It may be a nested property. It is left to the clients to validate for null or empty.

target - the given object

clazz - type of property

Returns:

a the values of the given property name

Throws:

IntrospectionError - if the given target does not have a property with a matching name.

propertyValueOf

public <T> T propertyValueOf(java.lang.String propertyName,
                             java.lang.Class<T> clazz,
                             java.lang.Object target)

Returns the value of the given property name given target. If the given object is null, this method will return null.
This method supports nested properties (e.g. "address.street.number").

Parameters:

propertyName - the name of the property. It may be a nested property. It is left to the clients to validate for null or empty.

clazz - the class of property.

target - the given Object to extract property from.

Returns:

the value of the given property name given target.

Throws:

IntrospectionError - if target object does not have a property with a matching name.

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if propertyName is null.

propertyValues

public java.util.List<java.lang.Object> propertyValues(java.lang.String fieldOrPropertyName,
                                                       java.lang.Iterable<?> objects)

just delegates to propertyValues(String, Class, Iterable) with Class being Object.class

publicGetterExistsFor

public boolean publicGetterExistsFor(java.lang.String fieldName,
                                     java.lang.Object actual)
