Method Detail

findField

public static Field findField(Class typeClass,
                              String propertyName,
                              Object propertyValue,
                              Set<Option> options)

findGetter

public static Method findGetter(Class typeClass,
                                String propertyName,
                                Set<Option> options)

findSetter

public static Method findSetter(Class typeClass,
                                String propertyName,
                                Object propertyValue,
                                Set<Option> options)

findAllSetters

public static List<Method> findAllSetters(Class typeClass,
                                          String propertyName,
                                          Object propertyValue,
                                          Set<Option> options)

Finds all valid setters for the property. Due to automatic type conversion there may be more than one possible setter that could be used to set the property. The setters that do not require type converstion will be a the head of the returned list of setters.

Parameters:

typeClass - the class to search for setters

propertyName - the name of the property

propertyValue - the value that must be settable either directly or after conversion

options - controls which setters are considered valid

Returns:

the valid setters; never null or empty
