class MetadataUtils
extends java.lang.Object

Convenience methods adapting AnnotationMetadata and MethodMetadata annotation attribute maps to the AnnotationAttributes API. As of Spring 3.1.1, both the reflection- and ASM-based implementations of these SPIs return AnnotationAttributes instances anyway, but for backward-compatibility, their signatures still return Maps. Therefore, for the usual case, these methods perform little more than a cast from Map to AnnotationAttributes.

Since:

3.1.1
