Method Detail

getProperty

public static String getProperty(Object obj,
                                 String property)

Deprecated.

Get property from standard accessor method.

Parameters:

property - if "object", method must be getObject()

setProperty

public static void setProperty(Object obj,
                               String property,
                               Object value)

Deprecated.

Use the standard mutator method: set(property) to set the value.

Parameters:

value - is value to set. If the set(property) method's argument is primitive, it must be wrapped in the corresponding Object wrapper (e.g. Integer for an int).

property - is name, and set(property) must be defined ... Note that the first character of property will be changed to upper case to make the name. For details, see JavaBean specification.

lookupReadMethod

public static Method lookupReadMethod(Object obj,
                                      String name)

Deprecated.

Get the standard accessor given name of property.

Parameters:

name - if "object", accessor method must be "getObject()"

lookupWriteMethod

public static Method lookupWriteMethod(Object obj,
                                       String name)

Deprecated.

Get the standard mutator given name of property.

Parameters:

name - if "object", mutator method must be "setObject(value)"

lookupReadOrWriteMethod

public static Method lookupReadOrWriteMethod(Object obj,
                                             String name,
                                             boolean isRead)

Deprecated.

                               String methodName,
                               Object[] params)
                        throws NoSuchMethodException

Deprecated.

One of a handful of getMethod implementations, designed to get a method to invoke with a single call.

Parameters:

anyInstance - instance upon which to invoke method.

methodName -

params - An array of objects that form the parameters to the method call.

Returns:

Method

getMethod

public static Method getMethod(String fullClassName,
                               String methodName,
                               String[] paramClassNames)
                        throws ClassNotFoundException,
                               NoSuchMethodException

Deprecated.

One of a handful of getMethod implementations, designed to get a method to invoke with a single call.

Parameters:

fullClassName - (must include package)

methodName -

paramClassNames - full class names of parameters

Returns:

method

getMethod

public static Method getMethod(Class thisClass,
                               String methodName,
                               Class[] paramClasses)
                        throws NoSuchMethodException

Deprecated.

One of a handful of getMethod implementations, designed to get a method to invoke with a single call. This is the core method, which actually interrogates the class for the method.

Parameters:

thisClass - class upon which to invoke method.

methodName -

paramClasses - An array of classes that are arguments to the method call.
