Constructor Details
-
BeanMap
public BeanMap()Constructs a new emptyBeanMap. -
BeanMap
Constructs a newBeanMapthat operates on the specified bean. If the given bean isnull, then this map will be empty.- Parameters:
bean- the bean for this map to operate on
-
-
Method Details
-
toString
- Overrides:
toStringin classAbstractMap<String,Object>
-
clone
Clone this bean map using the following process:- If there is no underlying bean, return a cloned BeanMap without a
bean.
- Since there is an underlying bean, try to instantiate a new bean of
the same type using Class.newInstance().
- If the instantiation fails, throw a CloneNotSupportedException
- Clone the bean map and set the newly instantiated bean as the
underlying bean for the bean map.
- Copy each property that is both readable and writable from the
existing object to a cloned bean map.
- If anything fails along the way, throw a
CloneNotSupportedException.
- Overrides:
clonein classAbstractMap<String,Object> - Throws:
CloneNotSupportedException
- If there is no underlying bean, return a cloned BeanMap without a
bean.
-
putAllWriteable
Puts all of the writable properties from the given BeanMap into this BeanMap. Read-only and Write-only properties will be ignored.- Parameters:
map- the BeanMap whose properties to put
-
clear
public void clear()This method reinitializes the bean map to have default values for the bean's properties. This is accomplished by constructing a new instance of the bean which the map uses as its underlying data source. This behavior forMap#clear()differs from the Map contract in that the mappings are not actually removed from the map (the mappings for a BeanMap are fixed). -
containsKey
Returns true if the bean defines a property with the given name.The given name must be a
String; if not, this method returns false. This method will also return false if the bean does not define a property with that name.Write-only properties will not be matched as the test operates against property read methods.
- Parameters:
name- the name of the property to check- Returns:
- false if the given name is null or is not a
String; false if the bean does not define a property with that name; or true if the bean does define a property with that name
-
get
Returns the value of the bean's property with the given name.The given name must be a
Stringand must not be null; otherwise, this method returnsnull. If the bean defines a property with the given name, the value of that property is returned. Otherwise,nullis returned.Write-only properties will not be matched as the test operates against property read methods.
- Parameters:
name- the name of the property whose value to return- Returns:
- the value of the property with that name
-
put
Sets the bean property with the given name to the given value. -
size
public int size()Returns the number of properties defined by the bean. -
keySet
Get the keys for this BeanMap.Write-only properties are not included in the returned set of property names, although it is possible to set their value and to get their type.
-
entrySet
Gets a Set of MapEntry objects that are the mappings for this BeanMap.Each MapEntry can be set but not removed.
-
values
Returns the values for the BeanMap. -
getType
Returns the type of the property with the given name.- Parameters:
name- the name of the property- Returns:
- the type of the property, or
nullif no such property exists
-
keyIterator
Convenience method for getting an iterator over the keys.Write-only properties will not be returned in the iterator.
- Returns:
- an iterator over the keys
-
valueIterator
Convenience method for getting an iterator over the values.- Returns:
- an iterator over the values
-
entryIterator
Convenience method for getting an iterator over the entries.- Returns:
- an iterator over the entries
-
getBean
Returns the bean currently being operated on. The return value may be null if this map is empty.- Returns:
- the bean being operated on by this map
-
setBean
Sets the bean to be operated on by this map. The given value may be null, in which case this map will be empty.- Parameters:
newBean- the new bean to operate on
-
getReadMethod
Returns the accessor for the property with the given name.- Parameters:
name- the name of the property- Returns:
- the accessor method for the property, or null
-
getWriteMethod
Returns the mutator for the property with the given name.- Parameters:
name- the name of the property- Returns:
- the mutator method for the property, or null
-
reinitialise
protected void reinitialise()Reinitializes this bean. Called duringsetBean(Object). Does introspection to find properties. -
firePropertyChange
Called during a successfulAbstractMap.put(Object,Object)operation. Default implementation does nothing. Override to be notified of property changes in the bean caused by this map.- Parameters:
key- the name of the property that changedoldValue- the old value for that propertynewValue- the new value for that property
-
createWriteMethodArguments
protected Object[] createWriteMethodArguments(Method method, Object value) throws IllegalAccessException Creates an array of parameters to pass to the given mutator method. If the given object is not the right type to pass to the method directly, it will be converted usingconvertType(Class,Object).- Parameters:
method- the mutator methodvalue- the value to pass to the mutator method- Returns:
- an array containing one object that is either the given value or a transformed value
- Throws:
IllegalAccessException- ifconvertType(Class,Object)raises itIllegalArgumentException- if any other exception is raised byconvertType(Class,Object)
-
convertType
protected Object convertType(Class<?> newType, Object value) throws InstantiationException, IllegalAccessException, InvocationTargetException Converts the given value to the given type. First, reflection is is used to find a public constructor declared by the given class that takes one argument, which must be the precise type of the given value. If such a constructor is found, a new object is created by passing the given value to that constructor, and the newly constructed object is returned.If no such constructor exists, and the given type is a primitive type, then the given value is converted to a string using its
toString()method, and that string is parsed into the correct primitive type using, for instance,Integer.valueOf(String)to convert the string into anint.If no special constructor exists and the given type is not a primitive type, this method returns the original value.
- Parameters:
newType- the type to convert the value tovalue- the value to convert- Returns:
- the converted value
- Throws:
NumberFormatException- if newType is a primitive type, and the string representation of the given value cannot be converted to that typeInstantiationException- if the constructor found with reflection raises itInvocationTargetException- if the constructor found with reflection raises itIllegalAccessException- never
-
getTypeFunction
Returns a transformer for the given primitive type.- Parameters:
aType- the primitive type whose transformer to return- Returns:
- a transformer that will convert strings into that type, or null if the given type is not a primitive type
