Method Detail

get

public VALUE get(Map<String,Object> current,
                 String functionName,
                 PojoPathContext context)

Description copied from interface: PojoPathFunction

This method gets the value of this function. It is invoked by PojoPathNavigator. get independent of the PojoPathMode. A regular implementation should only return what is already there. However in specific cases this may NOT (initially) be available from the given Pojo actual and therefore be retrieved from somewhere else (e.g. a database using a primary key given via a property of the given context). Further it can be legal to modify the actual Pojo e.g. by attaching the externally retrieved result.

Specified by:

get in interface PojoPathFunction<Map<String,Object>,VALUE>

Overrides:

get in class AbstractPojoPathFunction<Map<String,Object>,VALUE>

Parameters:

current - is the actual Pojo where this function is invoked on. Typically the returned value should be retrieved via this object.

functionName - is the name under which this PojoPathFunction was invoked via the PojoPathNavigator excluding the PojoPathFunction.FUNCTION_NAME_PREFIX.

context - is the PojoPathContext providing additional context information. Objects traversed between actual and the returned value should be recognized via the recognizer.

Returns:

the value of this function or null if NOT available.

set

public VALUE set(Map<String,Object> current,
                 String functionName,
                 VALUE value,
                 PojoPathContext context)

Description copied from interface: PojoPathFunction

This method sets the given value for the given actual Pojo.
After this method has been successfully invoked, the method get should return the same value for identical arguments.

Specified by:

set in interface PojoPathFunction<Map<String,Object>,VALUE>

Overrides:

set in class AbstractPojoPathFunction<Map<String,Object>,VALUE>

Parameters:

current - is the actual Pojo where this function is invoked on. Typically the given value should be set in this object.

functionName - is the name under which this PojoPathFunction was invoked via the PojoPathNavigator excluding the PojoPathFunction.FUNCTION_NAME_PREFIX.

value - is the value to set.

context - is the PojoPathContext providing additional context information. Objects traversed between actual and the returned value should be recognized via the recognizer.

Returns:

the previous value that has been replaced or null.
