Class AnnotatedMember

java.lang.Object

com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.introspect.Annotated

com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.introspect.AnnotatedMember

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

Direct Known Subclasses:

AnnotatedField, AnnotatedParameter, AnnotatedWithParams, VirtualAnnotatedMember

public abstract class AnnotatedMember
extends Annotated
implements Serializable

Intermediate base class for annotated entities that are members of a class; fields, methods and constructors. This is a superset of things that can represent logical properties as it contains constructors in addition to fields and methods.

Field Summary

Fields

Modifier and Type	Field and Description
protected AnnotationMap	_annotations
protected AnnotatedClass	_context Class that was resolved to produce this member instance; either class that declared the member, or one of its subtypes that inherited it.

Constructor Summary

Constructors

Modifier	Constructor and Description
protected	AnnotatedMember(AnnotatedClass ctxt, AnnotationMap annotations)
protected	AnnotatedMember(AnnotatedMember base) Copy-constructor.

Method Summary

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
boolean	addIfNotPresent(Annotation a) Method called to augment annotations, by adding specified annotation if and only if it is not yet present in the annotation map we have.
boolean	addOrOverride(Annotation a) Method called to override an annotation, usually due to a mix-in annotation masking or overriding an annotation 'real' constructor has.
Iterable<Annotation>	annotations() Accessor that can be used to iterate over all the annotations associated with annotated component.
void	fixAccess() Method that can be called to modify access rights, by calling AccessibleObject.setAccessible(java.lang.reflect.AccessibleObject[], boolean) on the underlying annotated element.
protected AnnotationMap	getAllAnnotations() Internal helper method used to access annotation information; not exposed to developers since instances are mutable.
AnnotatedClass	getContextClass() Accessor for AnnotatedClass that was the type that was resolved and that contains this member: this is either the Class in which member was declared, or one of its super types.
abstract Class<?>	getDeclaringClass() Actual physical class in which this memmber was declared.
abstract Member	getMember()
abstract Object	getValue(Object pojo) Optional method that can be used to access the value of this member on given object, if this is a supported operation for member type.
abstract void	setValue(Object pojo, Object value) Optional method that can be used to assign value of this member on given object, if this is a supported operation for member type.

Field Detail

_context

protected final transient AnnotatedClass _context

Class that was resolved to produce this member instance; either class that declared the member, or one of its subtypes that inherited it.

Since:

2.5

_annotations

protected final transient AnnotationMap _annotations

Constructor Detail

AnnotatedMember

protected AnnotatedMember(AnnotatedClass ctxt,
               AnnotationMap annotations)

AnnotatedMember

protected AnnotatedMember(AnnotatedMember base)

Copy-constructor.

Since:

2.5

Method Detail

getDeclaringClass

public abstract Class<?> getDeclaringClass()

Actual physical class in which this memmber was declared. Note that this may be different from what getContextClass() returns; "owner" may be a sub-type of "declaring class".

getMember

public abstract Member getMember()

getContextClass

public AnnotatedClass getContextClass()

Accessor for AnnotatedClass that was the type that was resolved and that contains this member: this is either the Class in which member was declared, or one of its super types. If distinction between result type, and actual class in which declaration was found matters, you can compare return value to that of getDeclaringClass(). The main use for this accessor is (usually) to access class annotations.

Also note that owner property is NOT (JDK-)serialized; this should usually not matter, but means that while it is accessible during construction of various (de)serializers, it may not be available on per-call basis, if (but only if) ObjectMapper (etc) has been serialized/deserialized.

Since:

2.5

annotations

public Iterable<Annotation> annotations()

Description copied from class: Annotated

Accessor that can be used to iterate over all the annotations associated with annotated component.

Specified by:

annotations in class Annotated

getAllAnnotations

protected AnnotationMap getAllAnnotations()

Description copied from class: Annotated

Internal helper method used to access annotation information; not exposed to developers since instances are mutable.

Specified by:

getAllAnnotations in class Annotated

addOrOverride

public final boolean addOrOverride(Annotation a)

Method called to override an annotation, usually due to a mix-in annotation masking or overriding an annotation 'real' constructor has.

addIfNotPresent

public final boolean addIfNotPresent(Annotation a)

Method called to augment annotations, by adding specified annotation if and only if it is not yet present in the annotation map we have.

fixAccess

public final void fixAccess()

Method that can be called to modify access rights, by calling AccessibleObject.setAccessible(java.lang.reflect.AccessibleObject[], boolean) on the underlying annotated element.

setValue

public abstract void setValue(Object pojo,
            Object value)
                       throws UnsupportedOperationException,
                              IllegalArgumentException

Optional method that can be used to assign value of this member on given object, if this is a supported operation for member type.

This is implemented for fields and single-argument member methods; but not for constructor parameters or other types of methods (like static methods)

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException

IllegalArgumentException

getValue

public abstract Object getValue(Object pojo)
                         throws UnsupportedOperationException,
                                IllegalArgumentException

Optional method that can be used to access the value of this member on given object, if this is a supported operation for member type.

This is implemented for fields and no-argument member methods; but not for constructor parameters or other types of methods (like static methods)

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException

IllegalArgumentException
