Class Data

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.lang.Comparable<Data>
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    Property
    public class Data
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.lang.Comparable<Data>

    This class represents configured data. If added to a FactoryConfiguration, its values will be made available in the application-scoped toolboxes produced by any ToolboxFactory configured using that configuration.

    This class also implements all the functionality of Propertys, which may added to any Configuration subclass, including ToolConfiguration, ToolboxConfiguration, and FactoryConfiguration. In other words, anything you can do in a Data configuration, you can do with a Property.

    Some features supported here are:

    • built in Data.Types for strings, booleans, numbers, fields and lists thereof
    • auto-conversion of numbers, booleans and fields in data with no explicit type
    • support for any Commons-BeanUtils Converter implementation

    • Field Detail

      • DEFAULT_TYPE

        protected static final Data.Type DEFAULT_TYPE

    • Constructor Detail

      • Data

        public Data()

    • Method Detail

      • setKey

        public void setKey​(java.lang.String key)

      • setValue

        public void setValue​(java.lang.Object value)

      • setClassname

        public void setClassname​(java.lang.String classname)

      • setClass

        public void setClass​(java.lang.String classname)
        This doesn't take a Class parameter because this class was not created for all-java configuration.
        Parameters:
        classname - class name

      • setType

        protected void setType​(Data.Type type)

      • setType

        public void setType​(java.lang.String t)

      • setTargetClass

        public void setTargetClass​(java.lang.Class clazz)

      • setConverter

        public void setConverter​(java.lang.Class clazz)

      • setConverter

        public void setConverter​(java.lang.String classname)

      • convertWith

        public void convertWith​(org.apache.commons.beanutils.Converter converter)
        This is a convenience method for those doing configuration in java. It cannot be named setConverter(), or else it would confuse BeanUtils.
        Parameters:
        converter - value converter

      • getKey

        public java.lang.String getKey()

      • getType

        public java.lang.String getType()

      • getValue

        public java.lang.Object getValue()

      • getTargetClass

        public java.lang.Class getTargetClass()

      • getConverter

        public org.apache.commons.beanutils.Converter getConverter()

      • getConvertedValue

        public java.lang.Object getConvertedValue()

      • validate

        public void validate()

      • compareTo

        public int compareTo​(Data datum)
        Specified by:
        compareTo in interface java.lang.Comparable<Data>
