Constructor Detail

PropertyEditorRegistrySupport

public PropertyEditorRegistrySupport()
Method Detail

registerDefaultEditors

protected void registerDefaultEditors()
Activate the default editors for this registry instance, allowing for lazily registering default editors when needed.


useConfigValueEditors

public void useConfigValueEditors()
Activate config value editors which are only intended for configuration purposes, such as StringArrayPropertyEditor.

Those editors are not registered by default simply because they are in general inappropriate for data binding purposes. Of course, you may register them individually in any case, through registerCustomEditor(java.lang.Class, java.beans.PropertyEditor).


getDefaultEditor

protected PropertyEditor getDefaultEditor(Class requiredType)
Retrieve the default editor for the given property type, if any.

Lazily registers the default editors, if they are active.

Parameters:
requiredType - type of the property
Returns:
the default editor, or null if none found
See Also:
registerDefaultEditors()

copyDefaultEditorsTo

protected void copyDefaultEditorsTo(PropertyEditorRegistrySupport target)
Copy the default editors registered in this instance to the given target registry.

Parameters:
target - the target registry to copy to

registerCustomEditor

public void registerCustomEditor(Class requiredType,
                                 PropertyEditor propertyEditor)
Description copied from interface: PropertyEditorRegistry
Register the given custom property editor for all properties of the given type.

Specified by:
registerCustomEditor in interface PropertyEditorRegistry
Parameters:
requiredType - the type of the property
propertyEditor - the editor to register

registerCustomEditor

public void registerCustomEditor(Class requiredType,
                                 String propertyPath,
                                 PropertyEditor propertyEditor)
Description copied from interface: PropertyEditorRegistry
Register the given custom property editor for the given type and property, or for all properties of the given type.

If the property path denotes an array or Collection property, the editor will get applied either to the array/Collection itself (the PropertyEditor has to create an array or Collection value) or to each element (the PropertyEditor has to create the element type), depending on the specified required type.

Note: Only one single registered custom editor per property path is supported. In the case of a Collection/array, do not register an editor for both the Collection/array and each element on the same property.

For example, if you wanted to register an editor for "items[n].quantity" (for all values n), you would use "items.quality" as the value of the 'propertyPath' argument to this method.

Specified by:
registerCustomEditor in interface PropertyEditorRegistry
Parameters:
requiredType - the type of the property (can be null if a property is given but should be specified in any case for consistency checking)
propertyPath - the path of the property (name or nested path), or null if registering an editor for all properties of the given type
propertyEditor - editor to register

registerSharedEditor

public void registerSharedEditor(Class requiredType,
                                 PropertyEditor propertyEditor)
Register the given custom property editor for all properties of the given type, indicating that the given instance is a shared editor that might be used concurrently.

Parameters:
requiredType - the type of the property
propertyEditor - the shared editor to register

isSharedEditor

public boolean isSharedEditor(PropertyEditor propertyEditor)
Check whether the given editor instance is a shared editor, that is, whether the given editor instance might be used concurrently.

Parameters:
propertyEditor - the editor instance to check
Returns:
whether the editor is a shared instance

findCustomEditor

public PropertyEditor findCustomEditor(Class requiredType,
                                       String propertyPath)
Description copied from interface: PropertyEditorRegistry
Find a custom property editor for the given type and property.

Specified by:
findCustomEditor in interface PropertyEditorRegistry
Parameters:
requiredType - the type of the property (can be null if a property is given but should be specified in any case for consistency checking)
propertyPath - the path of the property (name or nested path), or null if looking for an editor for all properties of the given type
Returns:
the registered editor, or null if none

hasCustomEditorForElement

public boolean hasCustomEditorForElement(Class elementType,
                                         String propertyPath)
Determine whether this registry contains a custom editor for the specified array/collection element.

Parameters:
elementType - the target type of the element (can be null if not known)
propertyPath - the property path (typically of the array/collection; can be null if not known)
Returns:
whether a matching custom editor has been found

getPropertyType

protected Class getPropertyType(String propertyPath)
Determine the property type for the given property path.

Called by findCustomEditor(java.lang.Class, java.lang.String) if no required type has been specified, to be able to find a type-specific editor even if just given a property path.

The default implementation always returns null. BeanWrapperImpl overrides this with the standard getPropertyType method as defined by the BeanWrapper interface.

Parameters:
propertyPath - the property path to determine the type for
Returns:
the type of the property, or null if not determinable
See Also:
PropertyAccessor.getPropertyType(String)

guessPropertyTypeFromEditors

protected Class guessPropertyTypeFromEditors(String propertyName)
Guess the property type of the specified property from the registered custom editors (provided that they were registered for a specific type).

Parameters:
propertyName - the name of the property
Returns:
the property type, or null if not determinable

copyCustomEditorsTo

protected void copyCustomEditorsTo(PropertyEditorRegistry target,
                                   String nestedProperty)
Copy the custom editors registered in this instance to the given target registry.

Parameters:
target - the target registry to copy to
nestedProperty - the nested property path of the target registry, if any. If this is non-null, only editors registered for a path below this nested property will be copied.
