Class ReadOnlyJavaBeanLongPropertyBuilder


  • public final class ReadOnlyJavaBeanLongPropertyBuilder
    extends Object
    A ReadOnlyJavaBeanLongPropertyBuilder can be used to create ReadOnlyJavaBeanLongProperties. To create a ReadOnlyJavaBeanLongProperty one first has to call create() to generate a builder, set the required properties, and then one can call build() to generate the property.

    Not all properties of a builder have to specified, there are several combinations possible. As a minimum the name(java.lang.String) of the property and the bean(java.lang.Object) have to be specified. If the name of the getter follows the conventions, this is sufficient. Otherwise it is possible to specify an alternative name for the getter (getter(java.lang.String)) or the getter Methods directly (getter(java.lang.reflect.Method)).

    All methods to change properties return a reference to this builder, to enable method chaining.

    If you have to generate adapters for the same property of several instances of the same class, you can reuse a ReadOnlyJavaBeanLongPropertyBuilder. by switching the Java Bean instance (with bean(java.lang.Object) and calling build().

      • create

        public static ReadOnlyJavaBeanLongPropertyBuilder create()
        Create a new instance of ReadOnlyJavaBeanLongPropertyBuilder
        Returns:
        the new ReadOnlyJavaBeanLongPropertyBuilder
      • name

        public ReadOnlyJavaBeanLongPropertyBuilder name​(String name)
        Set the name of the property
        Parameters:
        name - the name of the property
        Returns:
        a reference to this builder to enable method chaining
      • bean

        public ReadOnlyJavaBeanLongPropertyBuilder bean​(Object bean)
        Set the Java Bean instance the adapter should connect to
        Parameters:
        bean - the Java Bean instance
        Returns:
        a reference to this builder to enable method chaining
      • beanClass

        public ReadOnlyJavaBeanLongPropertyBuilder beanClass​(Class<?> beanClass)
        Set the Java Bean class in which the getter should be searched. This can be useful, if the builder should generate adapters for several Java Beans of different types.
        Parameters:
        beanClass - the Java Bean class
        Returns:
        a reference to this builder to enable method chaining
      • getter

        public ReadOnlyJavaBeanLongPropertyBuilder getter​(String getter)
        Set an alternative name for the getter. This can be omitted, if the name of the getter follows Java Bean naming conventions.
        Parameters:
        getter - the alternative name of the getter
        Returns:
        a reference to this builder to enable method chaining
      • getter

        public ReadOnlyJavaBeanLongPropertyBuilder getter​(Method getter)
        Set the getter method directly. This can be omitted, if the name of the getter follows Java Bean naming conventions.
        Parameters:
        getter - the getter
        Returns:
        a reference to this builder to enable method chaining
