Enum PropertyMemberInfo

java.lang.Object

java.lang.Enum<PropertyMemberInfo>

io.cui.tools.property.PropertyMemberInfo

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<PropertyMemberInfo>

public enum PropertyMemberInfo
extends Enum<PropertyMemberInfo>

Members of this enum define the way the corresponding property is subject to the contracts regarding the canonical Object methods like Object.equals(Object), Object.hashCode() and Object.toString() and the Serializable contract

Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants

Enum Constant	Description
DEFAULT	Defines a default property contract, saying it is not transient and defines the Object-identity, Object.equals(Object), Object.hashCode() and Object.toString()
NO_IDENTITY	Defines a property that is not transient, and is not part of the object-identity and should therefore be ignored in the methods Object.equals(Object), Object.hashCode()
TRANSIENT	Defines a transient property that is not part of the object-identity and should therefore be ignored in the methods Object.equals(Object) and the serialization.
UNDEFINED	The actual state can not be defined.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
static PropertyMemberInfo	resolveForBean(Class<?> beanType, String propertyName)	Resolves PropertyMemberInfo for a given property with MoreReflection.
static PropertyMemberInfo	valueOf(String name)	Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name.
static PropertyMemberInfo[]	values()	Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.

Enum Constant Detail

DEFAULT

public static final PropertyMemberInfo DEFAULT

Defines a default property contract, saying it is not transient and defines the Object-identity, Object.equals(Object), Object.hashCode() and Object.toString()

NO_IDENTITY

public static final PropertyMemberInfo NO_IDENTITY

Defines a property that is not transient, and is not part of the object-identity and should therefore be ignored in the methods Object.equals(Object), Object.hashCode()

TRANSIENT

public static final PropertyMemberInfo TRANSIENT

Defines a transient property that is not part of the object-identity and should therefore be ignored in the methods Object.equals(Object) and the serialization.

UNDEFINED

public static final PropertyMemberInfo UNDEFINED

The actual state can not be defined.

Method Detail

values

public static PropertyMemberInfo[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (PropertyMemberInfo c : PropertyMemberInfo.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static PropertyMemberInfo valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

resolveForBean

public static PropertyMemberInfo resolveForBean(Class<?> beanType,
                                                String propertyName)

Resolves PropertyMemberInfo for a given property with MoreReflection. This method can solely distinguish between the states UNDEFINED, DEFAULT and TRANSIENT. NO_IDENTITY must be defined from the caller if necessary;

Parameters:

beanType - to be checked, must not be null

propertyName - to be checked, must not be null

Returns:

the corresponding PropertyReadWrite for a given property
