public class BeanELResolver extends ELResolver
This resolver handles base objects of any type, as long as the base is not null
. It accepts any object
as a property or method, and coerces it to a string.
For property resolution, the property string is used to find a JavaBeans compliant property on the base object. The value is accessed using JavaBeans getters and setters.
For method resolution, the method string is the name of the method in the bean. The parameter types can be optionally specified to identify the method. If the parameter types are not specified, the parameter objects are used in the method resolution.
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.
Because this resolver handles base objects of any type, it should be placed near the end of a composite resolver. Otherwise, it will claim to have resolved a property before any resolvers that come after it get a chance to test if they can do so as well.

if this resolver cannot modify beans; false
otherwise.public Class<?> getType(ELContext context, Object base, Object property)
null
, returns the most general acceptable type that can be set on this bean
property.
If the base is not null
, 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.
The provided property will first be coerced to a String
. If there is a BeanInfoProperty
for
this property and there were no errors retrieving it, the propertyType
of the
propertyDescriptor
is returned. Otherwise, a PropertyNotFoundException
is thrown.

exception must be included as the cause property of this exception, if available.public Object getValue(ELContext context, Object base, Object property)

, returns the current value of the given property on this bean.
If the base is not null
, 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.
The provided property name will first be coerced to a String
. If the property is a readable property of
the base object, as per the JavaBeans specification, then return the result of the getter call. If the getter throws
an exception, it is propagated to the caller. If the property is not found or is not readable, a
PropertyNotFoundException
is thrown.

, attempts to set the value of the given property on this bean.
If the base is not null
, 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
.
The provided property name will first be coerced to a String
. If property is a writable property of
base
(as per the JavaBeans Specification), the setter method is called (passing value
). If
the property exists but does not have a setter, then a PropertyNotFoundException
is thrown. If the
property does not exist, a PropertyNotFoundException
is thrown.

- if an exception was thrown while performing the property or variable resolution. The thrown
exception must be included as the cause property of this exception, if available.public Object invoke(ELContext context, Object base, Object methodName, Class<?>[] paramTypes, Object[] params)
null
, invoke the method, with the given parameters on this bean. The return
value from the method is returned.
If the base is not null
, 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.
The provided method object will first be coerced to a String
. The methods in the bean is then examined
and an attempt will be made to select one for invocation. If no suitable can be found, a
MethodNotFoundException
is thrown.
If the given paramTypes is not null
, select the method with the given name and parameter types.
Else select the method with the given name that has the same number of parameters. If there are more than one such
method, the method selection process is undefined.
Else select the method with the given name that takes a variable number of arguments.
Note the resolution for overloaded methods will likely be clarified in a future version of the spec.
The provide parameters are coerced to the corresponding parameter types of the method, and the method is then
invoked.
invoke
in class ELResolver
context
- The context of this evaluation.base
- The bean on which to invoke the methodmethodName
- The simple name of the method to invoke. Will be coerced to a String
. If method is
"<init>"or "<clinit>" a MethodNotFoundException is thrown.paramTypes
- An array of Class objects identifying the method's formal parameter types, in declared order. Use
an empty array if the method has no parameters. Can be null
, in which case the method's formal parameter
types are assumed to be unknown.params

- if no suitable method can be found.ELException
- if an exception was thrown while performing (base, method) resolution. The thrown exception must
be included as the cause property of this exception, if available. If the exception thrown is an
InvocationTargetException
, extract its cause
and pass it to the ELException
constructor.public boolean isReadOnly(ELContext context, Object base, Object property)
null
, returns whether a call to setValue(javax.el.ELContext, java.lang.Object, java.lang.Object, java.lang.Object)
will always fail.
If the base is not null
, 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 return true
.
The provided property name will first be coerced to a String
. If property is a writable property of
base
, false
is returned. If the property is found but is not writable, true
is
returned. If the property is not found, a PropertyNotFoundException
is thrown.

null
, returns an Iterator
containing the set of JavaBeans
properties available on the given object. Otherwise, returns null
.
The Iterator
returned must contain zero or more instances of FeatureDescriptor
. Each
info object contains information about a property in the bean, as obtained by calling the
BeanInfo.getPropertyDescriptors
method. The FeatureDescriptor
is initialized using the same
fields as are present in the PropertyDescriptor
, with the additional required named attributes
"type
" and "resolvableAtDesignTime
" set as follows:
ELResolver.TYPE
- The runtime type of the property, from
PropertyDescriptor.getPropertyType()
.ELResolver.RESOLVABLE_AT_DESIGN_TIME
- true
.getFeatureDescriptors

- The context of this evaluation.base
- The bean to analyze.Iterator

objects, each representing a
property on this bean, or null

.FeatureDescriptor
public Class<?> getCommonPropertyType(ELContext context, Object base)
null
, returns the most general type that this resolver accepts for the
property
argument. Otherwise, returns null
.
Assuming the base is not null
, this method will always return Object.class
. This is because
any object is accepted as a key and is coerced into a string.
