Constructor Detail

ForLoadedAnnotation

protected ForLoadedAnnotation(S annotation)

Creates a new annotation description for a loaded annotation.

Parameters:

annotation - The annotation to represent.

Method Detail

of

public static <U extends Annotation> AnnotationDescription.Loadable<U> of(U annotation)

Creates a description of the given annotation.

Type Parameters:

U - The type of the annotation.

Parameters:

annotation - The annotation to be described.

Returns:

A description of the given annotation.

wrap

public static Object wrap(Object value,
                          TypeDescription typeDescription)

A helper method for converting a loaded type into a representation that is also capable of representing unloaded descriptions of annotation values as specified by AnnotationDescription.

Parameters:

value - The loaded value.

typeDescription - The annotation type of the value. This cannot be inferred as enumerations can implement annotation interfaces and because annotations could be implemented as an enumeration what creates an ambiguity.

Returns:

The wrapped representation as specified by AnnotationDescription.

load

public S load()

Description copied from interface: AnnotationDescription.Loadable

Loads this annotation description. This causes all classes referenced by the annotation value to be loaded. Without specifying a class loader, the annotation's class loader which was used to prepare this instance is used.

Specified by:

load in interface AnnotationDescription.Loadable<S extends Annotation>

Returns:

A loaded version of this annotation description.

load

public S load(ClassLoader classLoader)

Description copied from interface: AnnotationDescription.Loadable

Loads this annotation description. This causes all classes referenced by the annotation value to be loaded.

Specified by:

load in interface AnnotationDescription.Loadable<S extends Annotation>

Parameters:

classLoader - The class loader to be used for loading the annotation's linked types.

Returns:

A loaded version of this annotation description.

getValue

public Object getValue(MethodDescription methodDescription)

Description copied from interface: AnnotationDescription

Returns the value of the given method for this annotation value. Note that all return values are wrapped as described by AnnotationDescription.

Specified by:

getValue in interface AnnotationDescription

Parameters:

methodDescription - The method for the value to be requested.

Returns:

The value for the given method.

prepare

public <T extends Annotation> AnnotationDescription.Loadable<T> prepare(Class<T> annotationType)

Description copied from interface: AnnotationDescription

Links this annotation description to a given annotation type such that it can be loaded. This does not cause the values of this annotation to be loaded.

Specified by:

prepare in interface AnnotationDescription

Type Parameters:

T - The type of the annotation.

Parameters:

annotationType - The loaded annotation type of this annotation description.

Returns:

A loadable version of this annotation description.

getAnnotationType

public TypeDescription getAnnotationType()

Description copied from interface: AnnotationDescription

Returns a description of the annotation type of this annotation.

Specified by:

getAnnotationType in interface AnnotationDescription

Returns:

A description of the annotation type of this annotation.
