Constructor Detail

Constructor

public Constructor()

Constructor

public Constructor(Class<? extends Object> theRoot)

Create Constructor for the specified class as the root.

Parameters:

theRoot - - the class (usually JavaBean) to be constructed

Constructor

public Constructor(TypeDescription theRoot)

Constructor

public Constructor(String theRoot)
            throws ClassNotFoundException

Create Constructor for a class which does not have to be in the classpath or for a definition from a Spring ApplicationContext.

Parameters:

theRoot - fully qualified class name of the root class (usually JavaBean)

Throws:

ClassNotFoundException

Method Detail

addTypeDescription

public TypeDescription addTypeDescription(TypeDescription definition)

Make YAML aware how to parse a custom Class. If there is no root Class assigned in constructor then the 'root' property of this definition is respected.

Parameters:

definition - to be added to the Constructor

Returns:

the previous value associated with definition, or null if there was no mapping for definition.

getClassForNode

protected Class<?> getClassForNode(Node node)

getClassForName

protected Class<?> getClassForName(String name)
                            throws ClassNotFoundException

Throws:

ClassNotFoundException
