Method Detail

initialize

public void initialize(ModelConverter modelConverter)

Description copied from class: ModelBasedArgumentConverter

Initializes the testModel converter to be used by the implementing class.

Overrides:

initialize in class ModelBasedArgumentConverter

Parameters:

modelConverter - the testModel converter used for arguments. Must not be null

canConvert

public boolean canConvert(Object argument)

Description copied from interface: ArgumentConverter

Checks whether the given argument can be converted by this ArgumentConverter. If true is returned from this method, the result returned by ArgumentConverter.convert(Object) is guaranteed to "make sense". Otherwise, the result is not defined an any Exception may be thrown.

Parameters:

argument - the argument for which a possible conversion is checked

Returns:

whether the argument can be converted using ArgumentConverter.convert(Object)

convert

public Object convert(Object argument)

Description copied from interface: ArgumentConverter

Converts the given argument if ArgumentConverter.canConvert(Object) returned true. Otherwise the behaviour is intentionally undefined but is it better to throw an Exception, since returning a nonsensical could make debugging more complex for a user.

Parameters:

argument - the argument which should be converted

Returns:

the converted form of the argument
