Method Detail

getType

public Class<?> getType()

Description copied from interface: CoercionTarget

Return the type for the target to be coerced

Specified by:

getType in interface CoercionTarget

isArray

public boolean isArray()

Description copied from interface: CoercionTarget

Is the underlying target an array

Specified by:

isArray in interface CoercionTarget

hasComponents

public boolean hasComponents()

Description copied from interface: CoercionTarget

Does the target have components, this is true of any container e.g. Collection, Map

Specified by:

hasComponents in interface CoercionTarget

getComponentCoercionTypes

public CoercionTarget[] getComponentCoercionTypes()

Description copied from interface: CoercionTarget

Return the CoercionTargets for the components. For a collection this would return a single CoercionTarget for the element contained. For a map you would get one for the key and one for the value.

Specified by:

getComponentCoercionTypes in interface CoercionTarget

isPrimitive

public boolean isPrimitive()

Description copied from interface: CoercionTarget

Return true if this target is a primitive type

Specified by:

isPrimitive in interface CoercionTarget

boxedType

public Class<?> boxedType()

Description copied from interface: CoercionTarget

If this target represents a primitive type return the boxing type for it

Specified by:

boxedType in interface CoercionTarget

canBeAnnotated

public boolean canBeAnnotated()

Specified by:

canBeAnnotated in interface CoercionTarget

getAnnotatedElement

public AnnotatedElement getAnnotatedElement()

Specified by:

getAnnotatedElement in interface CoercionTarget

getOwner

public Class<?> getOwner()

Description copied from interface: CoercionTarget

Return the owning type of the target, for a method this is the class the method was found on similarly for fields.

Specified by:

getOwner in interface CoercionTarget

getParent

public CoercionTarget getParent()

Specified by:

getParent in interface CoercionTarget

hasParent

public boolean hasParent()

Specified by:

hasParent in interface CoercionTarget

toString
