Class BindingMethod

java.lang.Object
org.jibx.binding.classes.BindingMethod
Direct Known Subclasses:
ExistingMethod, MethodBuilder
public abstract class BindingMethod extends Object
Binding method information. Tracks a method used by the binding code, supplying hash code and equality checking based on the method signature and actual byte code of the method, ignoring the method name. This allows comparisons between methods generated by different bindings, and between generated and existing methods.

  • Field Details

    • m_classFile

      private ClassFile m_classFile
      Owning class file information.

  • Constructor Details

    • BindingMethod

      protected BindingMethod(ClassFile cf)
      Constructor.
      Parameters:
      cf - owning class file information

  • Method Details

    • getClassFile

      public ClassFile getClassFile()
      Get class file containing method.
      Returns:
      class file owning this method

    • getName

      public abstract String getName()
      Get name of method. This abstract method must be implemented by every subclass.
      Returns:
      method name

    • getSignature

      public abstract String getSignature()
      Get signature. This abstract method must be implemented by every subclass.
      Returns:
      signature for method

    • getAccessFlags

      public abstract int getAccessFlags()
      Get access flags. This abstract method must be implemented by every subclass.
      Returns:
      flags for access type of method

    • setAccessFlags

      public abstract void setAccessFlags(int flags)
      Set access flags. This abstract method must be implemented by every subclass.
      Parameters:
      flags - access type to be set

    • getMethod

      public abstract Method getMethod()
      Get the actual method.
      Returns:
      method information

    • getItem

      public abstract ClassItem getItem()
      Get the method item.
      Returns:
      method item information

    • makeAccessible

      public void makeAccessible(ClassFile src)
      Make accessible method. Check if this method is accessible from another class, and if not decreases the access restrictions to make it accessible.
      Parameters:
      src - class file for required access

    • computeMethodHash

      public static int computeMethodHash(Method method)
      Computes the hash code for a method. The hash code is based on the method signature, the exceptions thrown, and the actual byte code (including the exception handlers).
      Returns:
      computed hash code for method

    • hashCode

      public abstract int hashCode()
      Get hash code. This abstract method must be implemented by every subclass, using the same algorithm in each case. See one of the existing subclasses for details.
      Overrides:
      hashCode in class Object
      Returns:
      hash code for this method

    • equals

      public boolean equals(Object obj)
      Check if objects are equal. Compares first based on hash code, then on the actual byte code sequence.
      Overrides:
      equals in class Object
      Returns:
      true if equal objects, false if not
