Method Detail

getAllSuperTypes

public static <T> java.util.Collection<? extends java.lang.Class<?>> getAllSuperTypes(java.lang.Class<T> type)

getAllSuperTypesAnnotatedWith

public static java.util.List<java.lang.reflect.AnnotatedElement> getAllSuperTypesAnnotatedWith(java.lang.reflect.AnnotatedElement annotatedElement,
                                                                                               java.lang.annotation.Annotation annotation)

return all super types of a given annotated element annotated with a given annotation up in hierarchy, including the given type

areAnnotationMembersMatcing

protected static boolean areAnnotationMembersMatcing(java.lang.annotation.Annotation annotation1,
                                                     java.lang.reflect.AnnotatedElement annotatedElement)

checks for annotation member values matching on an annotated element or it's first annotated super type, based on equlaity of members

override this to adopt a different annotation member values matching strategy

getMatchingAnnotations

protected static <T extends java.lang.reflect.AnnotatedElement> java.util.Set<T> getMatchingAnnotations(java.util.Set<T> annotatedElements,
                                                                                                        java.lang.annotation.Annotation annotation)

returns a subset of given annotatedWith, where annotation member values matches the given annotation
