Constructor Summary

Constructors

Modifier	Constructor and Description
protected	AbstractParam(String input) Given an input value from a client, creates a parameter wrapping its parsed value.
protected	AbstractParam(String input, String parameterName) Given an input value from a client, creates a parameter wrapping its parsed value.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
boolean	equals(Object obj)
protected javax.ws.rs.core.Response	error(String input, Exception e) Deprecated. instead of returning a Response from this method, subclasses should override errorMessage(java.lang.Exception) and getErrorStatus() to allow a WebApplicationException to be thrown which is mapped to a response using the exception mappers.
protected String	errorMessage(Exception e) Given a string representation which was unable to be parsed and the exception thrown, produce an error message to be sent to the client.
protected ErrorMessage	generateErrorMessage(String input, Exception e) Generates an ErrorMessage to return to the client.
T	get() Returns the underlying value.
protected javax.ws.rs.core.Response.Status	getErrorStatus() Given a string representation which was unable to be parsed, produce a Response.Status for the Response to be sent to the client.
int	hashCode()
protected javax.ws.rs.core.MediaType	mediaType() Deprecated. the media type should be set by the exception mapper instead
protected abstract T	parse(String input) Given a string representation, parse it and return an instance of the parameter type.

Constructor Detail

AbstractParam

protected AbstractParam(@Nullable
                        String input)

Given an input value from a client, creates a parameter wrapping its parsed value.

Parameters:

input - an input value from a client request, might be null

AbstractParam

protected AbstractParam(@Nullable
                        String input,
                        String parameterName)

Given an input value from a client, creates a parameter wrapping its parsed value.

Parameters:

input - an input value from a client request, might be null

parameterName - name of the parameter with the provided value

Method Detail

generateErrorMessage

protected ErrorMessage generateErrorMessage(@Nullable
                                            String input,
                                            Exception e)

Generates an ErrorMessage to return to the client.

Parameters:

input - the raw input value

e - the exception thrown while parsing input

Returns:

the ErrorMessage with the message and status to return to the client

error

@Nullable
 @Deprecated
protected javax.ws.rs.core.Response error(@Nullable
                                                                 String input,
                                                                 Exception e)

Deprecated. instead of returning a Response from this method, subclasses should override errorMessage(java.lang.Exception) and getErrorStatus() to allow a WebApplicationException to be thrown which is mapped to a response using the exception mappers.

Deprecated - instead of throwing a WebApplicationException that contains a response with an entity, AbstractParam now throws a WebApplicationException that contains a message and status code, and can be mapped to a response using exception mappers. This method is kept for backwards compatibility with user-defined AbstractParam implementations that implement custom error behavior by overriding this method.

Given a string representation which was unable to be parsed and the exception thrown, produce a Response to be sent to the client.

Parameters:

input - the raw input value

e - the exception thrown while parsing input

Returns:

the Response to be sent to the client, or null to allow AbstractParam to throw a WebApplicationException that contains a message and status code.

mediaType

@Deprecated
protected javax.ws.rs.core.MediaType mediaType()

Deprecated. the media type should be set by the exception mapper instead

Deprecated - the media type should be set by the exception mapper instead. This method is no longer called by AbstractParam.

Returns:

not used

errorMessage

protected String errorMessage(Exception e)

Given a string representation which was unable to be parsed and the exception thrown, produce an error message to be sent to the client.

Parameters:

e - the exception thrown while parsing input

Returns:

the error message to be sent the client

getErrorStatus

protected javax.ws.rs.core.Response.Status getErrorStatus()

Given a string representation which was unable to be parsed, produce a Response.Status for the Response to be sent to the client.

Returns:

the HTTP Response.Status of the error message

parse

protected abstract T parse(@Nullable
                           String input)
                    throws Exception

Given a string representation, parse it and return an instance of the parameter type.

Parameters:

input - the raw input

Returns:

input, parsed as an instance of T

Throws:

Exception - if there is an error parsing the input

get

public T get()

Returns the underlying value.

Returns:

the underlying value

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Overrides:

equals in class Object

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object
