Direct Known Subclasses:

EnumeratedPropertyEditor, ObjectPropertyEditor, PrimitivePropertyEditor, StringPropertyEditor

public abstract class PropertyEditor
extends java.lang.Object

This is the base class for all property editors. Each property controller is responsible for manipulating a certain property for a given class of objects (domain).

Field Summary

protected java.lang.reflect.Method	addMethod This variable stores the method to invoke for adding the given value to the property managed by this editor.
protected java.lang.Class	domain This is the Class representing the domain of the property.
protected java.lang.reflect.Method	getMethod This variable stores the method to invoke for getting the value of the property on a given bean.
protected static org.apache.commons.logging.Log	log
protected boolean	multipleCardinality This is false if there is a cardinality restriction of one on the property.
protected java.lang.String	property Local OWL name of the property
protected java.lang.Class	range This is the Class representing the range of the property.
protected java.lang.reflect.Method	removeMethod This variable stores the method for removing the value of the property on a given bean.
protected java.lang.reflect.Method	setMethod This variable stores the method to invoke for setting a property to the to the given value.

Field Detail

log

protected static org.apache.commons.logging.Log log

setMethod

protected java.lang.reflect.Method setMethod

This variable stores the method to invoke for setting a property to the to the given value. If multiple cardinality, the returned method is expected to have a Set as its only parameter.

getMethod

protected java.lang.reflect.Method getMethod

This variable stores the method to invoke for getting the value of the property on a given bean. In the case of multiple cardinality, this method is expected to return a Set otherwise an instance of range

addMethod

protected java.lang.reflect.Method addMethod

This variable stores the method to invoke for adding the given value to the property managed by this editor. In the case of multiple cardinality, the method is expected to have a range as its only parameter, otherwise expected to be null.

removeMethod

protected java.lang.reflect.Method removeMethod

This variable stores the method for removing the value of the property on a given bean. In the case of multiple cardinality, this method is expected to have a range as its only parameter, otherwise expected to be null

domain

protected java.lang.Class domain

This is the Class representing the domain of the property.

range

protected java.lang.Class range

This is the Class representing the range of the property. It is by default an object.

property

protected java.lang.String property

Local OWL name of the property

multipleCardinality

protected boolean multipleCardinality

This is false if there is a cardinality restriction of one on the property.

Constructor Detail

PropertyEditor

public PropertyEditor(java.lang.String property,
                      java.lang.reflect.Method getMethod,
                      java.lang.Class domain,

                      boolean multipleCardinality)

Method Detail

createPropertyEditor

public static PropertyEditor createPropertyEditor(java.lang.Class domain,
                                                  java.lang.String property)

This method creates a property reflecting on the domain and property. Proper subclass is chosen based on the range of the property.

Parameters:

domain - paxtools level2 interface that maps to the corresponding owl level2.

property - to be managed by the constructed controller.

Returns:

a property controller to manipulate the beans for the given property.
