Class BeanIntrospector

java.lang.Object
nl.tudelft.simulation.introspection.beans.BeanIntrospector
All Implemented Interfaces:
Introspector
public class BeanIntrospector extends Object implements Introspector
The Bean introspector provides a simplified JavaBean implementation of the introspection interfaces. Its behavior adheres to the following:
  • Properties are discovered by searching for 'getter' and / or 'setter' methods
  • Property value are manipulated via a property's 'setter' method. If no such method is found, the property cannot be altered
  • Indexed properties are probably not correctly supported.
