Method Detail

addAnnotationProcessor

public void addAnnotationProcessor(TargetAwareAnnotationProcessor taAnnotationProcessor)

Add an TargetAwareAnnotationProcessor to the service.

Specified by:

addAnnotationProcessor in interface TargetAwareAnnotationProcessingService

Parameters:

taAnnotationProcessor - the TargetAwareAnnotationProcessor to add to this service.

See Also:

addAnnotationProcessor(AnnotationProcessor)

getAllAnnotationProcessors

public Set<AnnotationProcessor> getAllAnnotationProcessors()

Returns the set of AnnotationProcessors and TargetAwareAnnotationProcessors registered with this service.

Specified by:

getAllAnnotationProcessors in interface TargetAwareAnnotationProcessingService

Returns:

A set of AnnotationProcessors registered with this service.

See Also:

TargetAwareAnnotationProcessingService.getAllAnnotationProcessors()

getTargetAwareAnnotationProcessors

public Set<TargetAwareAnnotationProcessor> getTargetAwareAnnotationProcessors()

Returns the set of TargetAwareAnnotationProcessors registered with this service.

Specified by:

getTargetAwareAnnotationProcessors in interface TargetAwareAnnotationProcessingService

Returns:

A set of TargetAwareAnnotationProcessors registered with this service.

See Also:

TargetAwareAnnotationProcessingService.getTargetAwareAnnotationProcessors()

processAnnotation

public <I extends BaseNature,A extends Annotation> boolean processAnnotation(I info,
                                                                             A annotation,
                                                                             AnnotatedElement target)
                          throws AnnotationTargetException

The processing action of this service. If an annotation is given which is not supported by this processor false is returned. Otherwise the Annotations specific processor will (try to) process the Annotation and the result of TargetAwareAnnotationProcessor.processAnnotation(BaseNature, Annotation, AnnotatedElement) is returned.

Specified by:

processAnnotation in interface TargetAwareAnnotationProcessingService

Parameters:

info - the BaseNature (and so its PropertyHolder) that should be filled with the information read

annotation - the annotation to process

target - the target (AnnotatedElement) of the given annotation

Returns:

true, if the annotation was processed, false if not

Throws:

AnnotationTargetException - if an annotation is used in a context that is not valid.

See Also:

TargetAwareAnnotationProcessingService.processAnnotation(org.castor.core.nature.BaseNature, java.lang.annotation.Annotation, java.lang.reflect.AnnotatedElement)

processAnnotations

public <I extends BaseNature> Annotation[] processAnnotations(I info,
                                                              Annotation[] annotations,
                                                              AnnotatedElement target)
                                throws AnnotationTargetException

Calls AnnotationProcessingService.processAnnotation(BaseNature, Annotation) for each given Annotation.

Specified by:

processAnnotations in interface TargetAwareAnnotationProcessingService

Parameters:

info - the BaseNature (and so its PropertyHolder) that should be filled with the information read

annotations - the annotations to process

target - the target (AnnotatedElement) of the given annotation

Returns:

Annotation[] filled with unprocessed annotations

Throws:

AnnotationTargetException - if an annotation is used in a context that is not valid.

See Also:

TargetAwareAnnotationProcessingService.processAnnotations(org.castor.core.nature.BaseNature, java.lang.annotation.Annotation[], java.lang.reflect.AnnotatedElement)

processAnnotation

public <I extends BaseNature,A extends Annotation> boolean processAnnotation(I info,
                                                                             A annotation)

This method acts like it's super method, but also tries to process the annotation with the TargetAwareAnnotationProcessors. The processing action of this service. If an annotation is given which is not supported by this processor false is returned. Otherwise the Annotations specific processor will (try to) process the Annotation and the result of AnnotationProcessor.processAnnotation(BaseNature, Annotation) is returned.

Specified by:

processAnnotation in interface AnnotationProcessingService

Overrides:

processAnnotation in class BaseAnnotationProcessingService

Parameters:

info - the BaseNature (and so its PropertyHolder) that should be filled with the information read

annotation - the annotation to process

Returns:

true, if the annotation was processed, false if not

See Also:

BaseAnnotationProcessingService.processAnnotation(org.castor.core.nature.BaseNature, java.lang.annotation.Annotation)

processAnnotations

public <I extends BaseNature> Annotation[] processAnnotations(I info,
                                                              Annotation[] annotations)

This method acts like it's super method, but also tries to process the annotations with the TargetAwareAnnotationProcessors. Calls AnnotationProcessingService.processAnnotation(BaseNature, Annotation) for each given Annotation.

Specified by:

processAnnotations in interface AnnotationProcessingService

Overrides:

processAnnotations in class BaseAnnotationProcessingService

Parameters:

info - the BaseNature (and so its PropertyHolder) that should be filled with the information read

annotations - the annotations to process

Returns:

Annotation[] filled with unprocessed annotations
