Class ValueExpressionImpl

    • Method Detail

      • equals

        public boolean equals​(Object obj)
        Description copied from class: Expression
        Determines whether the specified object is equal to this Expression.

        The result is true if and only if the argument is not null, is an Expression object that is the of the same type (ValueExpression or MethodExpression), and has an identical parsed representation.

        Note that two expressions can be equal if their expression Strings are different. For example, ${fn1:foo()} and ${fn2:foo()} are equal if their corresponding FunctionMappers mapped fn1:foo and fn2:foo to the same method.

        Specified by:
        equals in class Expression
        Parameters:
        obj - the Object to test for equality.
        Returns:
        true if obj equals this Expression; false otherwise.

      • getExpectedType

        public Class getExpectedType()
        Description copied from class: ValueExpression
        Returns the type the result of the expression will be coerced to after evaluation.
        Specified by:
        getExpectedType in class ValueExpression
        Returns:
        the expectedType passed to the ExpressionFactory.createValueExpression method that created this ValueExpression.

      • getExpressionString

        public String getExpressionString()
        Returns the type the result of the expression will be coerced to after evaluation.
        Specified by:
        getExpressionString in class Expression
        Returns:
        the expectedType passed to the ExpressionFactory.createValueExpression method that created this ValueExpression.
        See Also:
        javax.el.Expression#getExpressionString()

      • getType

        public Class getType​(ELContext context)
              throws PropertyNotFoundException,
                     ELException
        Description copied from class: ValueExpression
        Evaluates the expression relative to the provided context, and returns the most general type that is acceptable for an object to be passed as the value parameter in a future call to the ValueExpression.setValue(org.jdesktop.el.ELContext, java.lang.Object) method.

        This is not always the same as getValue().getClass(). For example, in the case of an expression that references an array element, the getType method will return the element type of the array, which might be a superclass of the type of the actual element that is currently in the specified array element.

        Specified by:
        getType in class ValueExpression
        Parameters:
        context - The context of this evaluation.
        Returns:
        the most general acceptable type; otherwise undefined.
        Throws:
        PropertyNotFoundException - if one of the property resolutions failed because a specified variable or property does not exist or is not readable.
        ELException - if an exception was thrown while performing property or variable resolution. The thrown exception must be included as the cause property of this exception, if available.

      • getValue

        public Object getValue​(ELContext context)
                throws PropertyNotFoundException,
                       ELException
        Description copied from class: ValueExpression
        Evaluates the expression relative to the provided context, and returns the resulting value.

        The resulting value is automatically coerced to the type returned by getExpectedType(), which was provided to the ExpressionFactory when this expression was created.

        Specified by:
        getValue in class ValueExpression
        Parameters:
        context - The context of this evaluation.
        Returns:
        The result of the expression evaluation.
        Throws:
        PropertyNotFoundException - if one of the property resolutions failed because a specified variable or property does not exist or is not readable.
        ELException - if an exception was thrown while performing property or variable resolution. The thrown exception must be included as the cause property of this exception, if available.

      • hashCode

        public int hashCode()
        Description copied from class: Expression
        Returns the hash code for this Expression.

        See the note in the Expression.equals(java.lang.Object) method on how two expressions can be equal if their expression Strings are different. Recall that if two objects are equal according to the equals(Object) method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce the same integer result. Implementations must take special note and implement hashCode correctly.

        Specified by:
        hashCode in class Expression
        Returns:
        The hash code for this Expression.
        See Also:
        Expression.equals(java.lang.Object), Hashtable, Object.hashCode()

      • isLiteralText

        public boolean isLiteralText()
        Description copied from class: Expression
        Returns whether this expression was created from only literal text.

        This method must return true if and only if the expression string this expression was created from contained no unescaped EL delimeters (${...} or #{...}).

        Specified by:
        isLiteralText in class Expression
        Returns:
        true if this expression was created from only literal text; false otherwise.

      • setValue

        public void setValue​(ELContext context,
                     Object value)
              throws PropertyNotFoundException,
                     PropertyNotWritableException,
                     ELException
        Description copied from class: ValueExpression
        Evaluates the expression relative to the provided context, and sets the result to the provided value.
        Specified by:
        setValue in class ValueExpression
        Parameters:
        context - The context of this evaluation.
        value - The new value to be set.
        Throws:
        PropertyNotFoundException - if one of the property resolutions failed because a specified variable or property does not exist or is not readable.
        PropertyNotWritableException - if the final variable or property resolution failed because the specified variable or property is not writable.
        ELException - if an exception was thrown while attempting to set the property or variable. The thrown exception must be included as the cause property of this exception, if available.
