Constructor Detail

AbstractAnnotationValues

public AbstractAnnotationValues(PhysicalTypeMetadata governorPhysicalTypeMetadata,
                                org.springframework.roo.model.JavaType annotationType)

Parses the PhysicalTypeMetadata for the requested annotation JavaType. If found, makes the annotation available via the annotationMetadata field. Subclasses will then generally use AutoPopulationUtils.populate(Object, AnnotationMetadata) to complete the configuration of the subclass (we don't invoke AutoPopulationUtils from this constructor because the subclass is likely to have set default values for each field, and these will be overwritten when the control flow returns to the subclass constructor).

If the PhysicalTypeMetadata cannot be parsed or does not internally contain a ClassOrInterfaceTypeDetails, no attempt will be made to populate the values.

Parameters:

governorPhysicalTypeMetadata - to parse (required)

annotationType - to locate and parse (required)

Method Detail

getGovernorTypeDetails

public ClassOrInterfaceTypeDetails getGovernorTypeDetails()

Returns:

the type which declared the annotation (ie the governor; never returns null)

isClassParsed

public boolean isClassParsed()

isAnnotationFound

public boolean isAnnotationFound()
