      java.lang.Object getDelegate()
      Get the delegate
      default boolean isWrapperFor​(java.lang.Class<?> type)
      Returns true if this either extends or implements the type argument or is directly or indirectly a wrapper for an object that does.
      default <T> T unwrap​(java.lang.Class<T> type)
      Returns an object of the given class to allow access to non-standard methods, or standard methods not exposed by the proxy.

      • getDelegate

        java.lang.Object getDelegate()
        Get the delegate
        Returns:
        the delegate
      • unwrap

        default <T> T unwrap​(java.lang.Class<T> type)
                      throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
        Description copied from interface: Wrapper
        Returns an object of the given class to allow access to non-standard methods, or standard methods not exposed by the proxy.

        If the receiver extends or implements the type then the result is the receiver or a proxy for the receiver. If the receiver is a wrapper and the wrapped object extends or implements the type then the result is the wrapped object or a proxy for the wrapped object. Otherwise return the result of calling unwrap recursively on the wrapped object or a proxy for that result. If the receiver is not a wrapper and does not implement the type, then an IllegalArgumentException is thrown.

        Specified by:
        unwrap in interface Wrapper
        Type Parameters:
        T - the wrapped type
        Parameters:
        type - the wrapped type
        Returns:
        an object of the given class. Maybe a proxy for the actual implementing object.
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
      • isWrapperFor

        default boolean isWrapperFor​(java.lang.Class<?> type)
        Description copied from interface: Wrapper
        Returns true if this either extends or implements the type argument or is directly or indirectly a wrapper for an object that does. Returns false otherwise. If this extends or implements the type then return true, else if this is a wrapper then return the result of recursively calling isWrapperFor on the wrapped object. If this does not implement the type and is not a wrapper, return false. This method should be implemented as a low-cost operation compared to unwrap so that callers can use this method to avoid expensive unwrap calls that may fail. If this method returns true then calling unwrap with the same argument should succeed.
        Specified by:
        isWrapperFor in interface Wrapper
        Parameters:
        type - the wrapped type
        Returns:
        true if this extends or implements the type or directly or indirectly wraps an object that does
