Constructor Detail

JavaDescriptorReadAccessor

public JavaDescriptorReadAccessor(java.beans.PropertyDescriptor descriptor,
                                  IJavaPropertyDescriptor property)

Constructor, creates JavaDescriptorReadAccessor that reads the property value for the specified property using the specified PropertyDescriptor's read method.

Parameters:

descriptor - the PropertyDescriptor used to read the property value

property - the IJavaPropertyDescriptor for the property

Method Detail

getPropertyDescriptor

public IJavaPropertyDescriptor getPropertyDescriptor()

Returns the IJavaPropertyDescriptor for which this is a read accessor.

Specified by:

getPropertyDescriptor in interface IJavaReadAccessor

Returns:

IJavaPropertyDescriptor the property descriptor

get

public java.lang.Object get(java.lang.Object obj)
                     throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException,
                            java.lang.IllegalAccessException,
                            gov.nasa.arc.brahms.common.exceptions.PropertyAccessException

Returns the value of the property represented by the IJavaPropertyDescriptor, on the specified object. The value is automatically wrapped in an object if it has a primitive type.

The underlying property's value is obtained as follows:

If the underlying property is a static property, the obj argument is ignored; it may be null.

Otherwise, the underlying property is an member property. If the specified obj argument is null, the method throws a NullPointerException. If the specified object is not an instance of the class or interface declaring the underlying property, the method throws an IllegalArgumentException.

Otherwise, the value is retrieved from the underlying instance or static property. If the property has a primitive type, the value is wrapped in an object before being returned, otherwise it is returned as is.

Specified by:

get in interface IJavaReadAccessor

Parameters:

obj - object from which the represented property's value is to be extracted

Returns:

Object the value of the represented property in object obj; primitive values are wrapped in an appropriate object before being returned

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalAccessException - if the underlying property is inaccessible.

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the specified object is not an instance of the class or interface declaring the underlying property (or a subclass or implementor thereof).

gov.nasa.arc.brahms.common.exceptions.PropertyAccessException - if there was a problem reading the property's value

java.lang.NullPointerException - if the specified object is null and the property is a member property.

java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError - if the initialization provoked by this method fails.

getBoolean

public boolean getBoolean(java.lang.Object obj)
                   throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException,
                          java.lang.IllegalAccessException,
                          gov.nasa.arc.brahms.common.exceptions.PropertyAccessException
