getType back to summary

getType	back to summary
public Class<?> getType(ELContext context, Object base, Object property) Implements abstract javax.el.ELResolver.getType. Returns the type of a static field. If the base object is an instance of `ELClass`and the property is a String, the `propertyResolved` property of the `ELContext` object must be set to `true` by the resolver, before returning. If this property is not `true` after this method is called, the caller can safely assume no value has been set. If the property string is a public static field of class specified in ELClass, return the type of the static field. Parameters context:ELContext The context of this evaluation. base:Object An `ELClass`. property:Object The name of the field. Returns:Class<?> If the `propertyResolved` property of `ELContext` was set to `true`, then the type of the type of the field. Annotations @Override Exceptions NullPointerException: if context is `null`. PropertyNotFoundException: if field is not a public static filed of the class, or if the field is inaccessible.

public Class<?> getType(ELContext context, Object base, Object property)

Implements abstract javax.el.ELResolver.getType.

Returns the type of a static field.

If the base object is an instance of ELClassand the property is a String, the propertyResolved property of the ELContext object must be set to true by the resolver, before returning. If this property is not true after this method is called, the caller can safely assume no value has been set.

If the property string is a public static field of class specified in ELClass, return the type of the static field.

Parameters

context:ELContext: The context of this evaluation.
base:Object: An ELClass.
property:Object: The name of the field.

Returns:Class<?>

If the propertyResolved property of ELContext was set to true, then the type of the type of the field.

Annotations

@Override

Exceptions

NullPointerException:: if context is null.
PropertyNotFoundException:: if field is not a public static filed of the class, or if the field is inaccessible.

getValue back to summary

getValue	back to summary
public Object getValue(ELContext context, Object base, Object property) Implements abstract javax.el.ELResolver.getValue. Returns the value of a static field. If the base object is an instance of `ELClass` and the property is String, the `propertyResolved` property of the `ELContext` object must be set to `true` by this resolver, before returning. If this property is not `true` after this method is called, the caller should ignore the return value. If the property is a public static field of class specified in `ELClass`, return the value of the static field. An Enum constant is a public static field of an Enum object, and is a special case of this. Parameters context:ELContext The context of this evaluation. base:Object An `ELClass`. property:Object A static field name. Returns:Object If the `propertyResolved` property of `ELContext` was set to `true`, then the static field value. Annotations @Override Exceptions NullPointerException: if context is `null`.

public Object getValue(ELContext context, Object base, Object property)

Implements abstract javax.el.ELResolver.getValue.

Returns the value of a static field.

If the base object is an instance of ELClass and the property is String, the propertyResolved property of the ELContext object must be set to true by this resolver, before returning. If this property is not true after this method is called, the caller should ignore the return value.

If the property is a public static field of class specified in ELClass, return the value of the static field. An Enum constant is a public static field of an Enum object, and is a special case of this.

Parameters

context:ELContext: The context of this evaluation.
base:Object: An ELClass.
property:Object: A static field name.

Returns:Object

If the propertyResolved property of ELContext was set to true, then the static field value.

Annotations

@Override

Exceptions

NullPointerException:: if context is null.
PropertyNotFoundException:: if the specified class does not exist, or if the field is not a public static filed of the class, or if the field is inaccessible.

invoke back to summary

invoke	back to summary
public Object invoke(ELContext context, Object base, Object method, Class<?>[] paramTypes, Object[] params) Overrides javax.el.ELResolver.invoke. Invokes a public static method or the constructor for a class. If the base object is an instance of `ELClass` and the method is a String, the `propertyResolved` property of the `ELContext` object must be set to `true` by the resolver, before returning. If this property is not `true` after this method is called, the caller should ignore the return value. Invoke the public static method specified by `method`. The process involved in the method selection is the same as that used in `BeanELResolver`. As a special case, if the name of the method is "<init>", the constructor for the class will be invoked. Parameters context:ELContext Doc from javax.el.ELResolver.invoke. The context of this evaluation. base:Object An `ELClass` method:Object When coerced to a `String`, the simple name of the method. paramTypes:Class<?>[] An array of Class objects identifying the method's formal parameter types, in declared order. Use an empty array if the method has no parameters. Can be `null`, in which case the method's formal parameter types are assumed to be unknown. params:Object[] The parameters to pass to the method, or `null` if no parameters. Returns:Object The result of the method invocation (`null` if the method has a `void` return type). Annotations @Override Exceptions MethodNotFoundException: if no suitable method can be found. ELException: if an exception was thrown while performing (base, method) resolution. The thrown exception must be included as the cause property of this exception, if available. If the exception thrown is an `InvocationTargetException`, extract its `cause` and pass it to the `ELException` constructor.

public Object invoke(ELContext context, Object base, Object method, Class<?>[] paramTypes, Object[] params)

Overrides javax.el.ELResolver.invoke.

Invokes a public static method or the constructor for a class.

If the base object is an instance of ELClass and the method is a String, the propertyResolved property of the ELContext object must be set to true by the resolver, before returning. If this property is not true after this method is called, the caller should ignore the return value.

Invoke the public static method specified by method.

The process involved in the method selection is the same as that used in BeanELResolver.

As a special case, if the name of the method is "<init>", the constructor for the class will be invoked.

Parameters

Doc from javax.el.ELResolver.invoke.

The context of this evaluation.

base:Object

An ELClass

method:Object

When coerced to a String, the simple name of the method.

paramTypes:Class<?>[]

An array of Class objects identifying the method's formal parameter types, in declared order. Use an empty array if the method has no parameters. Can be null, in which case the method's formal parameter types are assumed to be unknown.

params:Object[]

The parameters to pass to the method, or null if no parameters.

Returns:Object

The result of the method invocation (null if the method has a void return type).

Annotations

@Override

Exceptions

MethodNotFoundException:: if no suitable method can be found.
ELException:: if an exception was thrown while performing (base, method) resolution. The thrown exception must be included as the cause property of this exception, if available. If the exception thrown is an InvocationTargetException, extract its cause and pass it to the ELException constructor.

Parameters context:ELContext The context of this evaluation. base:Object An `ELClass`. property:Object The name of the bean. Returns:boolean `true` Annotations @Override Exceptions NullPointerException: if context is `null`.
