All Implemented Interfaces:

Direct Known Subclasses:

BeanAdapter

public class ReflectAdapter

extends ContextAdapter

Component that uses reflection to match up element events with Java methods. Components may subclass this adapter, or this class may be used directly to "wrap" other components and expose their methods. Matching methods must have the same name as the element's local name, and must have an appropriate signature to receive the types of events of interest (one parameter of type StartElementEvent, EndElementEvent, TextEvent, or ProcessingInstructionEvent).

For example, if a subclass of this (or a component passed to its constructor) has a method like the following: public void form(StartElementEvent event); it will be passed any start events for any elements with the local name of "form". Whereas a method like the following: public void title(TextEvent event); would be passed the text content for any element with the local name of "title". Note that the component would not need methods for the start and end element events in order to receive the text event. The component may simply implement methods for just those events of interest.
