Method Detail

formatMethod

public static java.lang.String formatMethod(java.lang.reflect.Method input)

Returns a string representation of the signature of a Method.

formatMethodWithClass

public static java.lang.String formatMethodWithClass(java.lang.reflect.Method input)

Returns a string representation of the class + method signature for a Method.

formatAnnotation

public static java.lang.String formatAnnotation(java.lang.annotation.Annotation annotation)

A Function that returns a concise string for a Annotation.

simpleTypeDescription

public static java.lang.String simpleTypeDescription(java.lang.reflect.Type input)

A Function that formats types.

getClosureOfMethodsOnInterfaces

public static java.lang.Iterable<java.lang.reflect.Method> getClosureOfMethodsOnInterfaces(java.lang.Iterable<? extends java.lang.Class<?>> interfaces)

Returns all the methods visible from the provided interfaces.

Parameters:

interfaces - The interfaces to use when searching for all their methods.

Returns:

An iterable of Methods which interfaces expose.

getClosureOfMethodsOnInterface

public static java.lang.Iterable<java.lang.reflect.Method> getClosureOfMethodsOnInterface(java.lang.Class<?> iface)

Returns all the methods visible from iface.

Parameters:

iface - The interface to use when searching for all its methods.

Returns:

An iterable of Methods which iface exposes.

loadServicesOrdered

public static <T> java.lang.Iterable<T> loadServicesOrdered(java.lang.Class<T> iface,
                                                            java.lang.ClassLoader classLoader)

Returns instances of all implementations of the the specified iface. Instances are sorted by their class' name to ensure deterministic execution.

Type Parameters:

T - The type of iface

Parameters:

iface - The interface to load implementations of

classLoader - The class loader to use

Returns:

An iterable of instances of T, ordered by their class' canonical name

loadServicesOrdered

public static <T> java.lang.Iterable<T> loadServicesOrdered(java.lang.Class<T> iface)

A version of loadServicesOrdered that uses a default class loader.

Type Parameters:

T - The type of iface

Parameters:

iface - The interface to load implementations of

Returns:

An iterable of instances of T, ordered by their class' canonical name

findClassLoader

public static java.lang.ClassLoader findClassLoader(java.lang.ClassLoader proposed)

Finds the appropriate ClassLoader to be used by the ServiceLoader.load(java.lang.Class<S>, java.lang.ClassLoader) call, which by default would use the proposed ClassLoader, which can be null. The fallback is as follows: context ClassLoader, class ClassLoader and finaly the system ClassLoader.

findClassLoader

public static java.lang.ClassLoader findClassLoader(java.lang.Class<?>... classes)

Find the common classloader of all these classes.

findClassLoader

public static java.lang.ClassLoader findClassLoader()

Finds the appropriate ClassLoader to be used by the ServiceLoader.load(java.lang.Class<S>, java.lang.ClassLoader) call, which by default would use the context ClassLoader, which can be null. The fallback is as follows: context ClassLoader, class ClassLoader and finaly the system ClassLoader.
