Interface BeanProperty<B,T>

Type Parameters:

B - The bean type

T - The bean property type

All Superinterfaces:

AnnotatedElement, AnnotationMetadata, AnnotationMetadataDelegate, AnnotationMetadataProvider, AnnotationSource, Named

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractBeanProperty

@Immutable
public interface BeanProperty<B,T>
extends AnnotatedElement, AnnotationMetadataDelegate

Represents a bean property and associated annotation metadata.

A BeanProperty allows you to read the value of a property via get(Object) or write to it via set(Object, Object), without using reflection.

The annotations of a property can be inspected via the AnnotationMetadataProvider.getAnnotationMetadata() method.
