Method Detail

• createFromExistingData

  @Deprecated
  public static SoyData createFromExistingData(Object obj)

  Deprecated. It's best to pass whatever object you have directly to the Soy templates you're using -- Soy understands primitives, lists, and maps natively, and if you install runtime support you can also pass protocol buffers. If you're interacting directly with the Soy runtime and need SoyValue objects, use SoyValueHelper instead.
  Creates deprecated SoyData objects from standard Java data structures.

  Parameters:

  obj - The existing object or data structure to convert.

  Returns:

  A SoyData object or tree that corresponds to the given object.

  Throws:

  SoyDataException - If the given object cannot be converted to SoyData.

• coerceToBoolean

  public boolean coerceToBoolean()

  Description copied from interface: SoyValue
  Coerces this value into a boolean.

  Returns:

  This value coerced into a boolean.

• toBoolean

  @Deprecated
  public abstract boolean toBoolean()

  Deprecated. 
  This was a required method in the old SoyData interface. For new data classes, please use interface SoyValue, which has the method coerceToBoolean(). Converts this data object into a boolean (e.g. when used in a boolean context). In other words, this method tells whether this object is truthy.

  Returns:

  The value of this data object if coerced into a boolean. I.e. true if this object is truthy, false if this object is falsy.

• coerceToString

  public String coerceToString()

  Description copied from interface: SoyValue
  Coerces this value into a string.

  Returns:

  This value coerced into a string.

• toString

  public abstract String toString()

  This was a required method in the old SoyData interface. For new data classes, please use interface SoyValue, which has the method coerceToString(). Converts this data object into a string (e.g. when used in a string context).

  Overrides:

  toString in class Object

  Returns:

  The value of this data object if coerced into a string.
