Class ObjectBasedValueSource
public
class
ObjectBasedValueSource
extends AbstractValueSource
Wraps an object, providing reflective access to the object graph of which the
supplied object is the root. Expressions like 'child.name' will translate into
'rootObject.getChild().getName()' for non-boolean properties, and
'rootObject.getChild().isName()' for boolean properties.

Constructor Summary |
| ObjectBasedValueSource(Object root)
Construct a new value source, using the supplied object as the root from
which to start, and using expressions split at the dot ('.') to navigate
the object graph beneath this root. |
Method Summary |
Object | getValue(String expression)
Split the expression into parts, tokenized on the dot ('.') character. |
public ObjectBasedValueSource(Object root)
Construct a new value source, using the supplied object as the root from
which to start, and using expressions split at the dot ('.') to navigate
the object graph beneath this root.
public Object getValue(String expression)
Split the expression into parts, tokenized on the dot ('.') character. Then,
starting at the root object contained in this value source, apply each part
to the object graph below this root, using either 'getXXX()' or 'isXXX()'
accessor types to resolve the value for each successive expression part.
Finally, return the result of the last expression part's resolution.
NOTE: The object-graph nagivation actually takes place via the
ReflectionValueExtractor class.
