Class DescribableHelper

java.lang.Object

org.jenkinsci.plugins.workflow.structs.DescribableHelper

public class DescribableHelper
extends Object

Deprecated.

Moved to the structs plugin. See DescribableModel

Utility for converting between Describables (and some other objects) and map-like representations. Ultimately should live in Jenkins core (or Stapler).

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
static <T> T	instantiate(Class<? extends T> clazz, Map<String,?> arguments)	Deprecated. Creates an instance of a class via DataBoundConstructor and DataBoundSetter.
static DescribableHelper.Schema	schemaFor(Class<?> clazz)	Deprecated. Loads a definition of the structure of a class: what kind of data you might get back from uninstantiate(java.lang.Object) on an instance, or might want to pass to instantiate(java.lang.Class<? extends T>, java.util.Map<java.lang.String, ?>).
static Map<String,Object>	uninstantiate(Object o)	Deprecated. Computes arguments suitable to pass to instantiate(java.lang.Class<? extends T>, java.util.Map<java.lang.String, ?>) to reconstruct this object.

Method Detail

instantiate

public static <T> T instantiate(Class<? extends T> clazz,
                                Map<String,?> arguments)
                         throws Exception

Deprecated.

Creates an instance of a class via DataBoundConstructor and DataBoundSetter.

The arguments may be primitives (as wrappers) or Strings if that is their declared type. Characters, Enums, and URLs may be represented by Strings. Other object types may be passed in “raw” as well, but JSON-like structures are encouraged instead. Specifically a List may be used to represent any list- or array-valued argument. A Map with String keys may be used to represent any class which is itself data-bound. In that case the special key CLAZZ is used to specify the Class.getName(); or it may be omitted if the argument is declared to take a concrete type; or Class.getSimpleName() may be used in case the argument type is Describable and only one subtype is registered (as a Descriptor) with that simple name.

Throws:

Exception

uninstantiate

public static Map<String,Object> uninstantiate(Object o)
                                              throws UnsupportedOperationException

Deprecated.

Computes arguments suitable to pass to instantiate(java.lang.Class<? extends T>, java.util.Map<java.lang.String, ?>) to reconstruct this object.

Parameters:

o - a data-bound object

Returns:

constructor and/or setter parameters

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - if the class does not follow the expected structure

schemaFor

public static DescribableHelper.Schema schemaFor(Class<?> clazz)

Deprecated.

Loads a definition of the structure of a class: what kind of data you might get back from uninstantiate(java.lang.Object) on an instance, or might want to pass to instantiate(java.lang.Class<? extends T>, java.util.Map<java.lang.String, ?>).
