      • equals

        public final boolean equals​(Object o)

      • normalizeValue

        public final String normalizeValue​(ValueOrExpression<T> valueOrExpression)
        Get a normalized string representation of a property value. This can then be used for comparisons and for generating hash-codes.

        This method may throw an exception if the provided value is invalid. However, applications should not assume that implementations of this method will always validate a value. This task is the responsibility of validateValue(ValueOrExpression).

        This default implementation simply returns the string representation of the provided value. Sub-classes might want to override this method if this behavior is insufficient (for example, a string property definition might strip white-space and convert characters to lower-case).

        valueOrExpression - The property value to be normalized.
        Returns:
        Returns the normalized property value.
        Throws:
        PropertyException - If the property value is invalid.

        Returns:
        Returns a string representation of this property definition.
        See Also:
        Object.toString()

      • toString

        public void toString​(StringBuilder builder)
        Append a string representation of the property definition to the provided string builder.

        This simple implementation just outputs the propertyName of the property definition. Sub-classes should override this method to provide more complete string representations.

        Parameters:
        builder - The string builder where the string representation should be appended.

      • validateValue

        public final void validateValue​(ValueOrExpression<T> valueOrExpression)
