      • get

        public Object get(Object obj)
                   throws IllegalArgumentException,
                          IllegalAccessException
        Returns the value of the field represented by this Field, on the specified object. The value is automatically wrapped in an object if it has a primitive type.

        The underlying field's value is obtained as follows:

        If the underlying field is a static field, the obj argument is ignored; it may be null.

        Otherwise, the underlying field is an instance field. If the specified obj argument is null, the method throws a NullPointerException. If the specified object is not an instance of the class or interface declaring the underlying field, the method throws an IllegalArgumentException.

        If this Field object is enforcing Java language access control, and the underlying field is inaccessible, the method throws an IllegalAccessException. If the underlying field is static, the class that declared the field is initialized if it has not already been initialized.

        Otherwise, the value is retrieved from the underlying instance or static field. If the field has a primitive type, the value is wrapped in an object before being returned, otherwise it is returned as is.

        If the field is hidden in the type of obj, the field's value is obtained according to the preceding rules.

        Parameters:
        obj - object from which the represented field's value is to be extracted
        Returns:
        the value of the represented field in object obj; primitive values are wrapped in an appropriate object before being returned
        Throws:
        IllegalAccessException - if this Field object is enforcing Java language access control and the underlying field is inaccessible.
        IllegalArgumentException - if the specified object is not an instance of the class or interface declaring the underlying field (or a subclass or implementor thereof).
        NullPointerException - if the specified object is null and the field is an instance field.

      • set

        public void set(Object obj,
                        Object value)
                 throws IllegalArgumentException,
                        IllegalAccessException
        Sets the field represented by this Field object on the specified object argument to the specified new value. The new value is automatically unwrapped if the underlying field has a primitive type.

        The operation proceeds as follows:

        If the underlying field is static, the obj argument is ignored; it may be null.

        Otherwise the underlying field is an instance field. If the specified object argument is null, the method throws a NullPointerException. If the specified object argument is not an instance of the class or interface declaring the underlying field, the method throws an IllegalArgumentException.

        If this Field object is enforcing Java language access control, and the underlying field is inaccessible, the method throws an IllegalAccessException.

        If the underlying field is final, the method throws an IllegalAccessException unless setAccessible(true) has succeeded for this Field object and the field is non-static. Setting a final field in this way is meaningful only during deserialization or reconstruction of instances of classes with blank final fields, before they are made available for access by other parts of a program. Use in any other context may have unpredictable effects, including cases in which other parts of a program continue to use the original value of this field.

        If the underlying field is of a primitive type, an unwrapping conversion is attempted to convert the new value to a value of a primitive type. If this attempt fails, the method throws an IllegalArgumentException.

        If, after possible unwrapping, the new value cannot be converted to the type of the underlying field by an identity or widening conversion, the method throws an IllegalArgumentException.

        If the underlying field is static, the class that declared the field is initialized if it has not already been initialized.

        The field is set to the possibly unwrapped and widened new value.

        If the field is hidden in the type of obj, the field's value is set according to the preceding rules.

        Parameters:
        obj - the object whose field should be modified
        value - the new value for the field of obj being modified
        Throws:
        IllegalAccessException - if this Field object is enforcing Java language access control and the underlying field is either inaccessible or final.
        IllegalArgumentException - if the specified object is not an instance of the class or interface declaring the underlying field (or a subclass or implementor thereof), or if an unwrapping conversion fails.
        NullPointerException - if the specified object is null and the field is an instance field.
        ExceptionInInitializerError - if the initialization provoked by this method fails.

        Sets the value of a field as a char on the specified object. This method is equivalent to set(obj, cObj), where cObj is a Character object and cObj.charValue() == c.
        Parameters:
        obj - the object whose field should be modified
        c - the new value for the field of obj being modified
        Throws:
        IllegalAccessException - if this Field object is enforcing Java language access control and the underlying field is either inaccessible or final.
        IllegalArgumentException - if the specified object is not an instance of the class or interface declaring the underlying field (or a subclass or implementor thereof), or if an unwrapping conversion fails.
        NullPointerException - if the specified object is null and the field is an instance field.

      • getAnnotation

        public <T extends Annotation> T getAnnotation(Class<T> annotationClass)
        Description copied from interface: AnnotatedElement
        Returns this element's annotation for the specified type if such an annotation is present, else null.
        Specified by:
        getAnnotation in interface AnnotatedElement
        Overrides:
        getAnnotation in class AccessibleObject
        Type Parameters:
        T - the type of the annotation to query for and return if present
        Parameters:
        annotationClass - the Class object corresponding to the annotation type
        Returns:
        this element's annotation for the specified annotation type if present on this element, else null
        Throws:
        NullPointerException - if the given annotation class is null
        Since:
        1.5
      • getAnnotationsByType

        public <T extends Annotation> T[] getAnnotationsByType(Class<T> annotationClass)
        Returns annotations that are associated with this element. If there are no annotations associated with this element, the return value is an array of length 0. The difference between this method and AnnotatedElement.getAnnotation(Class) is that this method detects if its argument is a repeatable annotation type (JLS 9.6), and if so, attempts to find one or more annotations of that type by "looking through" a container annotation. The caller of this method is free to modify the returned array; it will have no effect on the arrays returned to other callers.
        Specified by:
        getAnnotationsByType in interface AnnotatedElement
        Overrides:
        getAnnotationsByType in class AccessibleObject
        Type Parameters:
        T - the type of the annotation to query for and return if present
        Parameters:
        annotationClass - the Class object corresponding to the annotation type
        Returns:
        all this element's annotations for the specified annotation type if associated with this element, else an array of length zero
        Throws:
        NullPointerException - if the given annotation class is null
        Since:
        1.8
      • getDeclaredAnnotations

        public Annotation[] getDeclaredAnnotations()
        Returns annotations that are directly present on this element. This method ignores inherited annotations. If there are no annotations directly present on this element, the return value is an array of length 0. The caller of this method is free to modify the returned array; it will have no effect on the arrays returned to other callers.
        Specified by:
        getDeclaredAnnotations in interface AnnotatedElement
        Overrides:
        getDeclaredAnnotations in class AccessibleObject
        Returns:
        annotations directly present on this element
      • getAnnotatedType

        public AnnotatedType getAnnotatedType()
        Returns an AnnotatedType object that represents the use of a type to specify the declared type of the field represented by this Field.
        Returns:
        an object representing the declared type of the field represented by this Field
