resetBuffers

public static void resetBuffers()

readPropertiesAsList

public static List<BeanIntrospector.PropertyIntrospectionInfo> readPropertiesAsList(Class cl)

The list of properties is always stable within one virtual machine - so you can use the list for purposes in which the list is required to be stable. Example: if calculating a hash code out of the properties then the sequence of properties must be stable in order to properly calculate the hash code.

readProperty

public static BeanIntrospector.PropertyIntrospectionInfo readProperty(Class cl,
 String propertyName)

readProperties

public static Map<String,BeanIntrospector.PropertyIntrospectionInfo> readProperties(Class cl)

checkIfSimpleDataType

public static boolean checkIfSimpleDataType(Class cl)

buildBeanPropertyNameFromMethodName

public static String buildBeanPropertyNameFromMethodName(String methodName)

Converts name of property access method (starting with "is" or "get") into property name.

buildBeanPropertyNameFromPartialMethodName

public static String buildBeanPropertyNameFromPartialMethodName(String rawName)

Derive bean name out of "raw name". The "raw name" is the name of the method without "get" or "is".

buildMethodNameFromPropertyName

public static String buildMethodNameFromPropertyName(String methodPrefix,
 String propertyName)

Builds method name out of propertyName for setting/getting properties.

Parameters:

methodPrefix - "set,"get","is",...

propertyName - The property name, e.g. "firstName"

Returns:

The full method name e.g. "setFirstName"
