Class AnnotatedParameter

java.lang.Object
  org.codehaus.jackson.map.introspect.Annotated
      org.codehaus.jackson.map.introspect.AnnotatedMember
          org.codehaus.jackson.map.introspect.AnnotatedParameter

public final class AnnotatedParameter
extends AnnotatedMember

Object that represents method parameters, mostly so that associated annotations can be processed conveniently. Note that many of accessors can not return meaningful values since parameters do not have stand-alone JDK objects associated; so access should mostly be limited to checking annotation values which are properly aggregated and included.

Note: as of version 1.7, this type extends AnnotatedMember, since it behaves like a member for the most part, but earlier it just extended Annotated

Field Summary

protected AnnotationMap	_annotations
protected AnnotatedMember	_owner Member (method, constructor) that this parameter belongs to
protected Type	_type JDK type of the parameter, possibly contains generic type information

Constructor Summary

AnnotatedParameter(AnnotatedMember owner, Type type, AnnotationMap ann)

Method Summary

void	addOrOverride(Annotation a)
AnnotatedElement	getAnnotated() Since there is no matching JDK element, this method will always return null
<A extends Annotation> A	getAnnotation(Class<A> acls) Accessor for annotations; all annotations associated with parameters are properly passed and accessible.
Class<?>	getDeclaringClass()
Type	getGenericType() Full generic type of the annotated element; definition of what exactly this means depends on sub-class.
Member	getMember()
int	getModifiers() Returns modifiers of the constructor, as parameters do not have independent modifiers.
String	getName() Parameters have no names in bytecode (unlike in source code), will always return empty String ("").
Type	getParameterType()
Class<?>	getRawType() "Raw" type (type-erased class) of the annotated element; definition of what exactly this means depends on sub-class.

Method Detail

addOrOverride

public void addOrOverride(Annotation a)

getAnnotated

public AnnotatedElement getAnnotated()

Since there is no matching JDK element, this method will always return null

Specified by:

getAnnotated in class Annotated

getModifiers

public int getModifiers()

Returns modifiers of the constructor, as parameters do not have independent modifiers.

Specified by:

getModifiers in class Annotated

getName

public String getName()

Parameters have no names in bytecode (unlike in source code), will always return empty String ("").

Specified by:

getName in class Annotated

getAnnotation

public <A extends Annotation> A getAnnotation(Class<A> acls)

Accessor for annotations; all annotations associated with parameters are properly passed and accessible.

Specified by:

getAnnotation in class Annotated

getGenericType

public Type getGenericType()

Description copied from class: Annotated

Full generic type of the annotated element; definition of what exactly this means depends on sub-class.

Specified by:

getRawType

public Class<?> getRawType()

Description copied from class: Annotated

"Raw" type (type-erased class) of the annotated element; definition of what exactly this means depends on sub-class.

Specified by:

getDeclaringClass

public Class<?> getDeclaringClass()

Specified by:

getDeclaringClass in class AnnotatedMember
