Method Detail

getType

public Class<?> getType()

Returns the class object from the injection target.

Returns:

type of the injection target

getAnnotations

public Annotation[] getAnnotations()

Returns an array of all annotations present on the injection target. If the AccessibleObject of the injection target is of type Method or Constructor, then the Annotation of the AccessibleObject and the corresponding parameter are returned.

Returns:

Array of all annotations present on the injection target

getAccessibleObject

public AccessibleObject getAccessibleObject()

isAnnotationPresent

public boolean isAnnotationPresent(Class<? extends Annotation> annotationClass)

Returns true if an annotation for the specified type is present on the injection target, else false.

Parameters:

annotationClass - - the Class object corresponding to the annotation type

Returns:

true if an annotation for the specified annotation type is present on this element, else false

Throws:

NullPointerException - - if the given annotation class is null

getAnnotation

public <T> T getAnnotation(Class<? extends Annotation> annotationClass)

Returns the Annotation object if an annotation for the specified type is present on the injection target, otherwise null. If the AccessibleObject of the injection target is of type Method or Constructor, then the Annotation may be specified on the AccessibleObject or on the corresponding parameter.

Parameters:

annotationClass - - the Class object corresponding to the annotation type

Returns:

annotation for the specified annotation type if present on this element, otherwise null

Throws:

NullPointerException - - if the given annotation class is null
