Method Detail

accessibleToConstructor

public static boolean accessibleToConstructor(Class at, Constructor constructor)


asPrimitiveArray

public static Object asPrimitiveArray(List list, Class parameterType)
Parameters:
list - the original list
parameterType - the resulting array type
Returns:
the constructed array


asWrapperArray

public static Object[] asWrapperArray(Object parameters, Class componentType)


calculateParameterDistance

public static long calculateParameterDistance(Class[] arguments, ParameterTypes pt)


capitalize

public static String capitalize(String property)
In general we want to match the signature that allows us to use as less arguments for the vargs part as possible. That means the longer signature usually wins if both signatures are vargs, while vargs looses always against a signature without vargs. A vs B : def foo(Object[] a) {1} -> case B def foo(a,b,Object[] c) {2} -> case A assert foo(new Object(),new Object()) == 2 --> A preferred over B A vs C : def foo(Object[] a) {1} -> case B def foo(a,b) {2} -> case C assert foo(new Object(),new Object()) == 2 --> C preferred over A A vs D : def foo(Object[] a) {1} -> case D def foo(a,Object[] b) {2} -> case A assert foo(new Object()) == 2 --> A preferred over D This gives C case B def foo(a,b) {2} -> case C assert foo(new Object(),new Object()) == 2 --> C preferred over B, matches C case B def foo(a,Object[] b) {2} -> case D assert foo(new Object(),new Object()) == 2 --> D preferred over B This gives C
