Method Details

accessibleToConstructor
-
asWrapperArray
-
asPrimitiveArray
- Parameters:
list- the original listparameterType- the resulting array type- Returns:
- the constructed array
-
calculateParameterDistance
-
capitalize
Deprecated.Use BeanUtils.capitalize instead -
chooseEmptyMethodParams
- Parameters:
methods- the methods to choose from- Returns:
- the method with 1 parameter which takes the most general type of object (e.g. Object)
-
chooseMostGeneralMethodWith1NullParam
Deprecated.Warning: this method does not choose properly if multiple methods with the same distance are encountered- Parameters:
methods- the methods to choose from- Returns:
- the method with 1 parameter which takes the most general type of object (e.g. Object) ignoring primitive types
-
containsMatchingMethod
- Parameters:
list- a list of MetaMethodsmethod- the MetaMethod of interest- Returns:
- true if a method of the same matching prototype was found in the list
-
convertToTypeArray
param instance array to the type array- Parameters:
args- the arguments- Returns:
- the types of the arguments
-
makeCommonArray
-
makeArray

createExceptionText
public static GroovyRuntimeException createExceptionText(String init, MetaMethod method, Object object, Object[] args, Throwable reason, boolean setReason) -
getClassName
-
getMethodPointer
Returns a callable object for the given method name on the object. The object acts like a Closure in that it can be called, like a closure and passed around - though really its a method pointer, not a closure per se.- Parameters:
object- the object containing the methodmethodName- the method of interest- Returns:
- the resulting closure-like method pointer

doSetMetaClass
Sets the meta class for an object, by delegating to the appropriateDefaultGroovyMethodshelper method. This method was introduced as a breaking change in 2.0 to solve rare cases of stack overflow. See GROOVY-5285. The method is named doSetMetaClass in order to prevent misusages. Do not use this method directly unless you know what you do.- Parameters:
self- the object for which to set the meta classmc- the metaclass
-
convertPropertyName
Converts a String into a standard property name.- Parameters:
prop- the original name- Returns:
- the converted name
