      • MappedPropertyDescriptor

        public MappedPropertyDescriptor(java.lang.String propertyName,
                                java.lang.Class beanClass)
                                 throws java.beans.IntrospectionException
        Constructs a MappedPropertyDescriptor for a property that follows the standard Java convention by having getFoo and setFoo accessor methods, with the addition of a String parameter (the key). Thus if the argument name is "fred", it will assume that the writer method is "setFred" and the reader method is "getFred". Note that the property name should start with a lower case character, which will be capitalized in the method names.
        Parameters:
        propertyName - The programmatic name of the property.
        beanClass - The Class object for the target bean. For example sun.beans.OurButton.class.
        Throws:
        java.beans.IntrospectionException - if an exception occurs during introspection.

        Gets the Class object for the property values.
        Returns:
        The Java type info for the property values. Note that the "Class" object may describe a built-in Java type such as "int". The result may be "null" if this is a mapped property that does not support non-keyed access.

        This is the type that will be returned by the mappedReadMethod.
