Method Detail

hasDefaultConstructor

boolean hasDefaultConstructor()

Checks to see the throwable has a default constructor.

Returns:

true if the throwable has a default constructor, otherwise false.

hasStringAndThrowableConstructor

boolean hasStringAndThrowableConstructor()

Checks to see if the throwable has a string and throwable (Throwable(String, Throwable)) constructor.

Returns:

true if the throwable has both a string and throwable constructor, otherwise false.

hasStringConstructor

boolean hasStringConstructor()

Checks to see if the throwable has a string (Throwable(String)) constructor.

If true, Throwable.initCause(Throwable) can be used to set the throwable.

Returns:

true if the throwable has a string constructor, otherwise false.

hasThrowableAndStringConstructor

boolean hasThrowableAndStringConstructor()

Checks to see if the throwable has a throwable and string (Throwable(Throwable, String)) constructor.

Returns:

true if the throwable has both a throwable and string constructor, otherwise false.

hasThrowableConstructor

boolean hasThrowableConstructor()

Checks to see if the throwable has a string and throwable (Throwable(String, Throwable)) constructor.

Returns:

true if the throwable has a throwable constructor, otherwise false.

useConstructionParameters

boolean useConstructionParameters()

Checks to see if the throwable has and can use a custom constructor.

If true, the constructor parameters can be retrieved from the constructionParameters() method.

Returns:

true if the throwable has a custom constructor that can be used, otherwise false.

constructionParameters

Set<Parameter> constructionParameters()

The parameters needed to construct the throwable, if not using the default constructor. If the default constructor should be used an empty set should be returned.

The order the set is returned is the order in which the parameters must be in for the constructor.

Returns:

a set of construction parameters or an empty set.

isChecked

boolean isChecked()

Checks if the throwable is a checked exception. If the throwable is a checked exception, true is returned, otherwise false.

Returns:

true if the throwable is a checked exception, otherwise false.

name

String name()

Returns the qualified class name of the return type.

Specified by:

name in interface MessageObject

Returns:

the qualified class name fo the return type.
