      T checkAssignment(Object value)
      Returns value cast to the type accepted by the Editor or throws a ClassCastException.
      Parameters:
      value - any value, including null
      Returns:
      value cast to the T type
      Throws:
      ClassCastException - if value is not assignable to the type T

    • getAbsolutePath

      String getAbsolutePath()
      Returns the absolute path of the Editor within the hierarchy. This method should be preferred to calling getEditorDelegate().getPath() becasue not all LeafValueEditors are guaranteed to have an associated delegate.

    • getEditedType

      Class<T> getEditedType()
      Returns the T type.

    • getEditor

      Editor<T> getEditor()
      Returns the associated Editor.

      EditorDelegate<T> getEditorDelegate()
      Returns the EditorDelegate associated with the current Editor, which may be null for LeafValueEditors.

    • getFromModel

      T getFromModel()
      Returns the value to be edited by the current editor.

    • setInModel

      void setInModel(T data)
      Sets a new value in the data hierarchy being edited. The checkAssignment(Object) method may be used to avoid an unsafe generic cast.

    • traverseSyntheticCompositeEditor

      void traverseSyntheticCompositeEditor(EditorVisitor visitor)
      Traverse an editor created by CompositeEditor.createEditorForTraversal() that reflects an uninitialized instance of a composite sub-editor. This can be used to examine the internal structure of a CompositeEditor even if there are no data elements being edited by that editor.
      Throws:
      IllegalStateException - if the current Editor is not a CompositeEditor
