Method Detail

fromClass

public static ExactReflection fromClass(java.lang.Class<?> source)

Retrieves an exact reflection instance from a given class.

Parameters:

source - - the class we'll use.

Returns:

A fuzzy reflection instance.

fromClass

public static ExactReflection fromClass(java.lang.Class<?> source,
                        boolean forceAccess)

Retrieves an exact reflection instance from a given class.

Parameters:

source - - the class we'll use.

forceAccess - - whether or not to override scope restrictions.

Returns:

A fuzzy reflection instance.

fromObject

public static ExactReflection fromObject(java.lang.Object reference)

Retrieves an exact reflection instance from an object.

Parameters:

reference - - the object we'll use.

Returns:

A fuzzy reflection instance that uses the class of the given object.

fromObject

public static ExactReflection fromObject(java.lang.Object reference,
                         boolean forceAccess)

Retrieves an exact reflection instance from an object.

Parameters:

reference - - the object we'll use.

forceAccess - - whether or not to override scope restrictions.

Returns:

A fuzzy reflection instance that uses the class of the given object.

getMethod

public java.lang.reflect.Method getMethod(java.lang.String methodName,
                                 java.lang.Class<?>... parameters)

Retrieve the first method in the class hierachy with the given name and parameters.

If isForceAccess() is TRUE, we will also search for protected and private methods.

Parameters:

methodName - - the method name to find, or NULL to look for everything.

parameters - - the parameters.

Returns:

The first matched method.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - If we cannot find a method by this name.

getField

public java.lang.reflect.Field getField(java.lang.String fieldName)

Retrieve a field in the class hierachy by the given name.

If isForceAccess() is TRUE, we will also search for protected and private fields.

Parameters:

fieldName - - the field name. Cannot be NULL.

Returns:

The first matched field.

forceAccess

public ExactReflection forceAccess()

Retrieve an ExactReflection object where scope restrictions are ignored.

Returns:

A copy of the current object.

isForceAccess

public boolean isForceAccess()

Determine if we are overriding scope restrictions and will also find private, protected or package members.

Returns:

TRUE if we are, FALSE otherwise.

getSource

public java.lang.Class<?> getSource()

Retrieve the source class we are searching.

Returns:

The source.
