Method Detail

convertClassValues

public static AnnotationAttributes convertClassValues(java.lang.ClassLoader classLoader,
                                                      AnnotationAttributes original,
                                                      boolean classValuesAsString)

getMergedAnnotationAttributes

public static AnnotationAttributes getMergedAnnotationAttributes(LinkedMultiValueMap<java.lang.String,AnnotationAttributes> attributesMap,
                                                                 java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.util.Set<java.lang.String>> metaAnnotationMap,
                                                                 java.lang.String annotationName)

Retrieve the merged attributes of the annotation of the given type, if any, from the supplied attributesMap.

Annotation attribute values appearing lower in the annotation hierarchy (i.e., closer to the declaring class) will override those defined higher in the annotation hierarchy.

Parameters:

attributesMap - the map of annotation attribute lists, keyed by annotation type name

metaAnnotationMap - the map of meta annotation relationships, keyed by annotation type name

annotationName - the fully qualified class name of the annotation type to look for

Returns:

the merged annotation attributes, or null if no matching annotation is present in the attributesMap
