Method Detail

convert

public ConversionResult convert(AtomicValue input)

Description copied from class: Converter

Convert an atomic value from the source type to the target type

Overrides:

convert in class StringConverter

Parameters:

input - the atomic value to be converted, which the caller guarantees to be of the appropriate type for the converter. The results are undefined if the value is of the wrong type; possible outcomes are (apparent) success, or a ClassCastException.

Returns:

the result of the conversion, as an AtomicValue, if conversion succeeds, or a ValidationFailure object describing the reasons for failure if conversion is not possible. Note that the ValidationFailure object is not (and does not contain) an exception, because it does not necessarily result in an error being thrown, and creating exceptions on non-failure paths is expensive.

convertString

public ConversionResult convertString(java.lang.CharSequence input)

Description copied from class: StringConverter

Convert a string to the target type of this converter.

Specified by:

convertString in class StringConverter

Parameters:

input - the string to be converted

Returns:

either an AtomicValue of the appropriate type for this converter (if conversion succeeded), or a ValidationFailure if conversion failed.

validate

public ValidationFailure validate(java.lang.CharSequence input)

Description copied from class: StringConverter

Validate a string for conformance to the target type, without actually performing the conversion

Overrides:

validate in class StringConverter

Parameters:

input - the string to be validated

Returns:

null if validation is successful, or a ValidationFailure indicating the reasons for failure if unsuccessful

isAlwaysSuccessful

public boolean isAlwaysSuccessful()

Description copied from class: Converter

Ask if this converter will always succeed

Overrides:

isAlwaysSuccessful in class Converter

Returns:

true if this Converter will never return a ValidationFailure
