Class BaseReflectionJavaType

java.lang.Object

org.apache.jdo.impl.model.java.AbstractJavaType

org.apache.jdo.impl.model.java.BaseReflectionJavaType

All Implemented Interfaces:

JavaElement, JavaType

Direct Known Subclasses:

PredefinedType, ReflectionJavaType

public class BaseReflectionJavaType
extends AbstractJavaType

This class provides a basic JavaType implementation using a reflection Class instance.

Note, BaseReflectionJavaType must not be used for array types, since it inherits the default implemention of methods isArray and getArrayComponentType from its superclass AbstractJavaType.

Since:

JDO 1.1

Field Detail

clazz

protected java.lang.Class clazz

The java.lang.Class instance for this BaseReflectionJavaType.

superclass

protected JavaType superclass

The superclass JavaType.

Constructor Detail

BaseReflectionJavaType

public BaseReflectionJavaType(java.lang.Class clazz,
                      JavaType superclass)

Constructor. The specified java.lang.Class instance must not be null. The

Parameters:

clazz - the Class instance representing the type

superclass - JavaType instance representing the superclass.

Method Detail

getUnderlyingObject

public java.lang.Object getUnderlyingObject()

Returns the environment specific instance wrapped by this JavaModel element. This implementation returns the java.lang.Class instance for this JavaType.

Specified by:

getUnderlyingObject in interface JavaElement

Overrides:

getUnderlyingObject in class AbstractJavaType

Returns:

the environment specific instance wrapped by this JavaModel element.

isInterface

public boolean isInterface()

Determines if this JavaType object represents an interface type.

Specified by:

isInterface in interface JavaType

Overrides:

isInterface in class AbstractJavaType

Returns:

true if this object represents an interface type; false otherwise.

isCompatibleWith

public boolean isCompatibleWith(JavaType javaType)

Returns true if this JavaType is compatible with the specified JavaType.

Specified by:

isCompatibleWith in interface JavaType

Overrides:

isCompatibleWith in class AbstractJavaType

Parameters:

javaType - the type this JavaType is checked with.

Returns:

true if this is compatible with the specified type; false otherwise.

getName

public java.lang.String getName()

Returns the name of the type. If this type represents a class or interface, the name is fully qualified.

Specified by:

getName in interface JavaType

Specified by:

getName in class AbstractJavaType

Returns:

type name

getModifiers

public int getModifiers()

Returns the Java language modifiers for the field represented by this JavaType, as an integer. The java.lang.reflect.Modifier class should be used to decode the modifiers.

Specified by:

getModifiers in interface JavaType

Overrides:

getModifiers in class AbstractJavaType

Returns:

the Java language modifiers for this JavaType

getSuperclass

public JavaType getSuperclass()

Returns the JavaType representing the superclass of the entity represented by this JavaType. If this JavaType represents either the Object class, an interface, a primitive type, or void, then null is returned. If this object represents an array class then the JavaType instance representing the Object class is returned.

Specified by:

getSuperclass in interface JavaType

Overrides:

getSuperclass in class AbstractJavaType

Returns:

the superclass of the class represented by this JavaType.

getJavaField

public JavaField getJavaField(java.lang.String fieldName)

Returns a JavaField instance that reflects the field with the specified name of the class or interface represented by this JavaType instance. The method returns null, if the class or interface (or one of its superclasses) does not have a field with that name.

Specified by:

getJavaField in interface JavaType

Overrides:

getJavaField in class AbstractJavaType

Parameters:

fieldName - the name of the field

Returns:

the JavaField instance for the specified field in this class or null if there is no such field.

getDeclaredJavaFields

public JavaField[] getDeclaredJavaFields()

Description copied from interface: JavaType

Returns an array of JavaField instances representing the declared fields of the class represented by this JavaType instance. Note, this method does not return JavaField instances representing inherited fields.

Specified by:

getDeclaredJavaFields in interface JavaType

Overrides:

getDeclaredJavaFields in class AbstractJavaType

Returns:

an array of declared JavaField instances.

getJavaProperty

public JavaProperty getJavaProperty(java.lang.String name)

Description copied from interface: JavaType

Returns a JavaProperty instance that reflects the property with the specified name of the class or interface represented by this JavaType instance. The method returns null, if the class or interface (or one of its superclasses) does not have a property with that name.

Specified by:

getJavaProperty in interface JavaType

Overrides:

getJavaProperty in class AbstractJavaType

Parameters:

name - the name of the property

Returns:

the JavaProperty instance for the specified property in this class or null if there is no such property.

getDeclaredJavaProperties

public JavaProperty[] getDeclaredJavaProperties()

Description copied from interface: JavaType

Returns an array of JavaProperty instances representing the declared properties of the class represented by this JavaType instance. Note, this method does not return JavaProperty instances representing inherited properties.

Specified by:

getDeclaredJavaProperties in interface JavaType

Overrides:

getDeclaredJavaProperties in class AbstractJavaType

Returns:

an array of declared JavaProperty instances.

getJavaClass

public java.lang.Class getJavaClass()

Returns the java.lang.Class instance wrapped by this JavaType.

Returns:

the Class instance for this JavaType.
