public class ListELResolver extends ELResolver
List
.
This resolver handles base objects of type java.util.List
. It accepts any object as a property and
coerces that object into an integer index into the list. The resulting value is the value in the list at that index.
This resolver can be constructed in read-only mode, which means that isReadOnly
will always return
true
and setValue(javax.el.ELContext, java.lang.Object, java.lang.Object, java.lang.Object)
will always throw PropertyNotWritableException
.
ELResolver
s are combined together using CompositeELResolver
s, to define rich semantics for
evaluating an expression. See the javadocs for ELResolver
for details.

Constructor and Description |
---|
ListELResolver()
Creates a new read/write
ListELResolver . |
ListELResolver(boolean isReadOnly)
Creates a new
ListELResolver whose read-only status is determined by the given parameter. |
Modifier and Type | Method and Description |
---|---|
java.lang.Class<?> |
getCommonPropertyType(ELContext context,
java.lang.Object base)
If the base object is a list, returns the most general type that this resolver accepts for the
property
argument. |
java.util.Iterator<java.beans.FeatureDescriptor> |
getFeatureDescriptors(ELContext context,
java.lang.Object base)
Always returns
null , since there is no reason to iterate through set set of all integers. |
java.lang.Class<?> |
getType(ELContext context,
java.lang.Object base,
java.lang.Object property)
If the base object is a list, returns the most general acceptable type for a value in this list.
|
java.lang.Object |
getValue(ELContext context,
java.lang.Object base,
java.lang.Object property)
If the base object is a list, returns the value at the given index.
|
boolean |
isReadOnly(ELContext context,
java.lang.Object base,
java.lang.Object property)
If the base object is a list, returns whether a call to
setValue(javax.el.ELContext, java.lang.Object, java.lang.Object, java.lang.Object) will always fail. |
void |
setValue(ELContext context,
java.lang.Object base,
java.lang.Object property,
java.lang.Object val)
If the base object is a list, attempts to set the value at the given index with the given value.

If the base is a List
, the propertyResolved
property of the ELContext
object
must be set to true
by this resolver, before returning. If this property is not true
after
this method is called, the caller should ignore the return value.
Assuming the base is a List
, this method will always return Object.class
. This is because
List
s accept any object as an element.

is returned.
If the base is a List

must be set to true
by this resolver, before returning. If this property is not true
after

If the base is a List
, the propertyResolved
property of the ELContext
object
must be set to true
by this resolver, before returning. If this property is not true
after
this method is called, the caller can safely assume no value was set.
If this resolver was constructed in read-only mode, this method will always throw
PropertyNotWritableException
.
If a List
was created using Collections.unmodifiableList(java.util.List<? extends T>)
, this method must throw
PropertyNotWritableException
. Unfortunately, there is no Collections API method to detect this. However,
an implementation can create a prototype unmodifiable List
and query its runtime type to see if it
matches the runtime type of the base object as a workaround.
