org.reflections.serializers
Class JavaCodeSerializer

java.lang.Object
  org.reflections.serializers.JavaCodeSerializer

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializer

public class JavaCodeSerializer
extends Object
implements Serializer

serialization of Reflections to java code

serializes types and types elements into interfaces respectively to fully qualified name,

for example:

 public interface MyTestModelStore {
        public interface org extends IPackage {
            public interface reflections extends IPackage {
                        public interface TestModel$AC1 extends IClass {}
                        public interface TestModel$C4 extends IClass {
                                public interface f1 extends IField {}
                                public interface m1 extends IMethod {}
                                public interface m1_int_java$lang$String$$$$ extends IMethod {}
        ...
 }
 

use the different resolve methods to resolve the serialized element into Class, Field or Method. for example:

  Class<? extends IMethod> imethod = MyTestModelStore.org.reflections.TestModel$C4.m1.class;
  Method method = JavaCodeSerializer.resolve(imethod);
 

depends on Reflections configured with TypeElementsScanner

the save(org.reflections.Reflections, String) method filename should be in the pattern: path/path/path/package.package.classname
