java.lang.Object

io.micronaut.core.annotation.AnnotationClassValue<T>

Type Parameters:

T - The generic type of the underlying class

All Implemented Interfaces:

Named, CharSequence

public final class AnnotationClassValue<T>
extends Object
implements CharSequence, Named

An annotation class value is a reference to a class in annotation metadata. The class may or may not be present on the classpath. If it is present then the getType() method will return a non-empty optional.

Constructor Detail

AnnotationClassValue

@Internal
public AnnotationClassValue(String name)

Constructs a class value for the type that is not present.

Parameters:

name - The name of the type.

AnnotationClassValue

public AnnotationClassValue(Class<T> theClass)

Constructs a class value for a type that is present.

Parameters:

theClass - The type

AnnotationClassValue

@Internal
public AnnotationClassValue(@Nonnull
                                      String name,
                                      boolean instantiated)

Constructs a class value for a type that is present.

Parameters:

name - the class name

instantiated - Whether at runtime an instance should be instantiated

AnnotationClassValue

public AnnotationClassValue(@Nonnull
                            T instance)

Constructs a class value for a type that is present.

Parameters:

instance - The instnace

Since:

1.1

Method Detail

getInstance

@Nonnull
public Optional<T> getInstance()

Returns the backing instance if there is one. Note this method will not attempt to instantiate the class via reflection and is designed for use via byte code generation.

Returns:

The instance

Since:

1.1

isInstantiated

public boolean isInstantiated()

Return whether the class value is instantiated. Normally this is the same as using isPresent on getInstance(), except at compilation time where instances are not instantiated.

Returns:

Whether this class value is instantiated

Since:

1.1

getType

public Optional<Class<T>> getType()

The type if present on the classpath.

Returns:

The type

getName

public String getName()

Specified by:

getName in interface Named

Returns:

The name of the component

length

public int length()

Specified by:

length in interface CharSequence

charAt

public char charAt(int index)

Specified by:

charAt in interface CharSequence

subSequence

public CharSequence subSequence(int start,
                                int end)

Specified by:

subSequence in interface CharSequence

toString

public String toString()

Specified by:

toString in interface CharSequence

Overrides:

toString in class Object

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)

Overrides:

equals in class Object

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object
