Annotation Type PropertyValue


  • @Retention(RUNTIME)
    @Target({FIELD,METHOD})
    public @interface PropertyValue
    Encapsulate the value for inject it in a property.

    It's used to fill the values of a validator, calculator, etc before execute it.

    Example:

      @EntityValidator(validator=CheapProductValidator.class, properties= {
        @PropertyValue(name="limit", value="100"),
        @PropertyValue(name="description"),
        @PropertyValue(name="price", from="unitPrice")
      })
      public class Product {
      ...
     
    For example, in this case before executing the validation of CheapProductValidator OpenXava does:
    • Put "100" in the property "limit" of CheapProductValidator.
    • Moves the value of 'description' of the current product to 'description' of CheapProductValidator.
    • Moves the value of 'unitPrice' of the current product to 'price' of CheapProductValidator.
