com.sun.javafx.property.adapter.ReadOnlyJavaBeanPropertyBuilderHelper, .ReadOnlyPropertyDescriptor, java.lang.reflect.Method

A ReadOnlyJavaBeanStringPropertyBuilder can be used to create ReadOnlyJavaBeanStringProperties. To create a ReadOnlyJavaBeanStringProperty 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 ReadOnlyJavaBeanStringPropertyBuilder. by switching the Java Bean instance (with bean(java.lang.Object) and calling build().

public ReadOnlyJavaBeanStringPropertyBuilder bean(Object bean)

Set the Java Bean instance the adapter should connect to

Parameters
bean:Object

the Java Bean instance

Returns:ReadOnlyJavaBeanStringPropertyBuilder

a reference to this builder to enable method chaining

beanClassback to summary
public ReadOnlyJavaBeanStringPropertyBuilder beanClass(Class<?> beanClass)

buildback to summary
public ReadOnlyJavaBeanStringProperty build() throws NoSuchMethodException

Generate a new ReadOnlyJavaBeanStringProperty with the current settings.

Returns:ReadOnlyJavaBeanStringProperty

the new ReadOnlyJavaBeanStringProperty

Exceptions
NoSuchMethodException:
if the settings were not sufficient to find the getter of the Java Bean property
IllegalArgumentException:
if the Java Bean property is not of type String
