Constructor Detail

### AbstractGrailsClass

    public AbstractGrailsClass(java.lang.Class clazz, java.lang.String trailingName)

  Used by all child classes to create a new instance and get the name right.
  Parameters:
    `clazz` - the Grails class
    `trailingName` - the trailing part of the name for this class type

Method Detail

### getClazz

    public java.lang.Class getClazz()

### getFullName

    public java.lang.String getFullName()

### getLogicalPropertyName

    public java.lang.String getLogicalPropertyName()

### getMetaClass

    public groovy.lang.MetaClass getMetaClass()

  Returns:
    the metaClass

### getName

    public java.lang.String getName()

### getNaturalName

    public java.lang.String getNaturalName()

### getPackageName

    public java.lang.String getPackageName()

### getPropertyDescriptors

    public PropertyDescriptor[] getPropertyDescriptors()

### getPropertyName

    public java.lang.String getPropertyName()

### getPropertyOrStaticPropertyOrFieldValue

    protected java.lang.Object getPropertyOrStaticPropertyOrFieldValue(@SuppressWarnings("hiding") java.lang.String name, java.lang.Class type)

  Looks for a property of the reference instance with a given name and type.

  If found its value is returned. We follow the Java bean conventions with augmentation for groovy support and static fields/properties. We will therefore match, in this order:

  1. Public static field
  2. Public static property with getter method
  3. Standard public bean property (with getter or just public field, using normal introspection)
  Returns:
    property value or null if no property or static field was found

### getPropertyType

    public java.lang.Class getPropertyType(java.lang.String typeName)

### getPropertyValue

    public T getPropertyValue(java.lang.String propName, java.lang.Class type)

  Get the value of the named property, with support for static properties in both Java and Groovy classes (which as of Groovy JSR 1.0 RC 01 only have getters in the metaClass)
  Parameters:
    propName
    type
  Returns:
    The property value or null

### getPropertyValue

    public java.lang.Object getPropertyValue(java.lang.String propName)

### getPropertyValueObject

    public java.lang.Object getPropertyValueObject(java.lang.String propertyNAme)

### getReference

    @Deprecated
    public BeanWrapper getReference()

  Used to get configured property values.
  deprecated:
  Returns:
    BeanWrapper instance that holds reference

### getReferenceInstance

    public java.lang.Object getReferenceInstance()

### getShortName

    public java.lang.String getShortName()

### getStaticPropertyValue

    public T getStaticPropertyValue(java.lang.String propName, java.lang.Class type)

  Get the value of the named static property.
  Parameters:
    propName
    type
  Returns:
    The property value or null

### hasMetaMethod

    public boolean hasMetaMethod(java.lang.String methodName)

### hasMetaMethod

    public boolean hasMetaMethod(java.lang.String methodName, Object[] args)

### hasMetaProperty

    public boolean hasMetaProperty(java.lang.String propName)

### hasProperty

    public boolean hasProperty(java.lang.String propName)

### isReadableProperty

    public boolean isReadableProperty(java.lang.String propName)

### newInstance

    public java.lang.Object newInstance()

### toString

    @Override
    public java.lang.String toString()
