  jaxx.runtime.decorator.DecoratorUtils

public class DecoratorUtils
extends Object

Some usefull methods on Decorator to create, and sort data with decorators.

To create a new decorator, use one of the methods :

• newPropertyDecorator(Class, String)
• newJXPathDecorator(Class, String)
• newMultiJXPathDecorator(Class, String, String))
• newMultiJXPathDecorator(Class, String, String, String))

To sort a list of data, using a JXPathDecorator, use the method sort(JXPathDecorator, List, int).

Factory method to instanciate a new PropertyDecorator for the given class internlaClass and a readable property name.

Type Parameters:

O - the generic type of class to be decorated by the new decorator

Parameters:

internalClass - the class of the objects decorated by the new decorator

property - the property

Returns:

the new instanciated decorator
