Method Detail

clone

public static java.lang.Object clone(java.lang.Cloneable pObject)
                              throws java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException

Throws:

java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException

isClassAvailable

public static boolean isClassAvailable(java.lang.String pClassName)

Tests if a named class is generally available. If a class is considered available, a call to Class.forName(pClassName) will not result in an exception.

Parameters:

pClassName - the class name to test

Returns:

true if available

isClassAvailable

public static boolean isClassAvailable(java.lang.String pClassName,
                       java.lang.Class pFromClass)

Tests if a named class is available from another class. If a class is considered available, a call to Class.forName(pClassName, true, pFromClass.getClassLoader()) will not result in an exception.

Parameters:

pClassName - the class name to test

pFromClass - the class to test from

Returns:

true if available

isFieldAvailable

public static boolean isFieldAvailable(java.lang.String pClassName,
                       java.lang.String pFieldName)

isFieldAvailable

public static boolean isFieldAvailable(java.lang.String pClassName,
                       java.lang.String pFieldName,
                       java.lang.Class pFromClass)

isMethodAvailable

public static boolean isMethodAvailable(java.lang.String pClassName,
                        java.lang.String pMethodName)

isMethodAvailable

public static boolean isMethodAvailable(java.lang.String pClassName,
                        java.lang.String pMethodName,
                        java.lang.Class[] pParams)

isMethodAvailable

public static boolean isMethodAvailable(java.lang.String pClassName,
                        java.lang.String pMethodName,
                        java.lang.Class[] pParams,
                        java.lang.Class pFromClass)

loadProperties

public static java.util.Properties loadProperties(java.lang.Class pClass)
                                           throws java.io.IOException

Utility method for loading a properties-file for a given class. The properties are searched for on the form "com/package/ClassName.properties" or "com/package/ClassName.xml".

The properties-file is loaded through either:

1. The given class' class loader (from classpath)
2. Or, the system class loader (from classpath)
3. Or, if it cannot be found in the classpath, an attempt to read from the current directory (or full path if given).

Both normal java.util.Properties and com.twelvemonkeys.util.XMLProperties are supported (XML-properties must have ".xml" as its file extension).

Parameters:

pClass - The class to load properties for

Returns:

A Properties mapping for the given class.

Throws:

java.lang.NullPointerException - if the pClass paramters is null

java.io.IOException - if an error occurs during load.

java.io.FileNotFoundException - if no properties-file could be found.

loadProperties

public static java.util.Properties loadProperties(java.lang.Class pClass,
                                  java.lang.String pName)
                                           throws java.io.IOException

Utility method for loading a named properties-file for a class.

The properties-file is loaded through either:

1. The given class' class loader (from classpath)
2. Or, the system class loader (from classpath)
3. Or, if it cannot be found in the classpath, an attempt to read from the current directory (or full path if given).

Both normal java.util.Properties and com.twelvemonkeys.util.XMLProperties are supported (XML-properties must have ".xml" as its file extension).

Parameters:

pClass - The class to load properties for. If this parameter is null, the method will work exactly as loadProperties(String)

pName - The name of the properties-file. If this parameter is null, the method will work exactly as loadProperties(Class)

Returns:

A Properties mapping read from the given file or for the given class.

Throws:

java.lang.NullPointerException - if both pName and pClass paramters are null

java.io.IOException - if an error occurs during load.

java.io.FileNotFoundException - if no properties-file could be found.

loadProperties(String), loadProperties(Class), ClassLoader.getResourceAsStream(java.lang.String), ClassLoader.getSystemResourceAsStream(java.lang.String)

loadProperties

public static java.util.Properties loadProperties(java.lang.String pName)
                                           throws java.io.IOException

Utility method for loading a named properties-file.

The properties-file is loaded through either:

1. The system class loader (from classpath)
2. Or, if it cannot be found in the classpath, an attempt to read from the current directory.

Both normal java.util.Properties and com.twelvemonkeys.util.XMLProperties are supported (XML-properties must have ".xml" as its file extension).

Parameters:

pName - The name of the properties-file.

Returns:

A Properties mapping read from the given file.

Throws:

java.lang.NullPointerException - if the pName paramters is null

java.io.IOException - if an error occurs during load.

java.io.FileNotFoundException - if no properties-file could be found.
