Class FieldAccessor

java.lang.Object

net.bytebuddy.implementation.FieldAccessor

All Implemented Interfaces:

InstrumentedType.Prepareable, Implementation

Direct Known Subclasses:

FieldAccessor.ForImplicitProperty, FieldAccessor.ForSetter

@HashCodeAndEqualsPlugin.Enhance
public abstract class FieldAccessor
extends Object
implements Implementation

Defines a method to access a given field by following the Java bean conventions for getters and setters:

• Getter: A method named getFoo() will be instrumented to read and return the value of a field foo or another field if one was specified explicitly. If a property is of type Boolean or boolean, the name isFoo() is also permitted.
• Setter: A method named setFoo(value) will be instrumented to write the given argument value to a field foo or to another field if one was specified explicitly.

Field accessors always implement a getter if a non-void value is returned from a method and attempt to define a setter otherwise. If a field accessor is not explicitly defined as a setter via FieldAccessor.PropertyConfigurable, an instrumented method must define exactly one parameter. Using the latter API, an explicit parameter index can be defined and a return value can be specified explicitly when void is not returned.

Nested Class Summary

Nested Classes

Modifier and Type	Class and Description
static interface	FieldAccessor.AssignerConfigurable A field accessor that can be configured to use a given assigner and runtime type use configuration.
protected static interface	FieldAccessor.FieldLocation A field location represents an identified field description which depends on the instrumented type and method.
static interface	FieldAccessor.FieldNameExtractor A field name extractor is responsible for determining a field name to a method that is implemented to access this method.
protected static class	FieldAccessor.ForImplicitProperty A field accessor for an implicit property where a getter or setter property is inferred from the signature.
protected static class	FieldAccessor.ForSetter<T> A field accessor for a field setter.
static interface	FieldAccessor.OwnerTypeLocatable A field accessor that can be configured to locate a field in a specific manner.
static interface	FieldAccessor.PropertyConfigurable A field accessor that allows to define the access to be a field write of a given argument.

Constructor Detail

FieldAccessor

protected FieldAccessor(FieldAccessor.FieldLocation fieldLocation,
                        Assigner assigner,
                        Assigner.Typing typing)

Creates a new field accessor.

Parameters:

fieldLocation - The field's location.

assigner - The assigner to use.

typing - Indicates if dynamic type castings should be attempted for incompatible assignments.

Method Detail

ofField

public static FieldAccessor.OwnerTypeLocatable ofField(String name)

Defines a field accessor where any access is targeted to a field named name.

Parameters:

name - The name of the field to be accessed.

Returns:

A field accessor for a field of a given name.

ofBeanProperty

public static FieldAccessor.OwnerTypeLocatable ofBeanProperty()

Defines a field accessor where any access is targeted to a field that matches the methods name with the Java specification for bean properties, i.e. a method getFoo or setFoo(value) will either read or write a field named foo.

Returns:

A field accessor that follows the Java naming conventions for bean properties.

of

public static FieldAccessor.OwnerTypeLocatable of(FieldAccessor.FieldNameExtractor fieldNameExtractor)

Defines a custom strategy for determining the field that is accessed by this field accessor.

Parameters:

fieldNameExtractor - The field name extractor to use.

Returns:

A field accessor using the given field name extractor.

of

public static FieldAccessor.AssignerConfigurable of(Field field)

Defines a field accessor where the specified field is accessed. The field must be within the hierarchy of the instrumented type.

Parameters:

field - The field being accessed.

Returns:

A field accessor for the given field.

of

public static FieldAccessor.AssignerConfigurable of(FieldDescription fieldDescription)

Defines a field accessor where the specified field is accessed. The field must be within the hierarchy of the instrumented type.

Parameters:

fieldDescription - The field being accessed.

Returns:

A field accessor for the given field.
