    [forge-dev] [Roaster] Don't know how to add an annotation inside another one

      Hi,

       

      This is a Roaster question. I've been trying to create a Bean Validation

      constraint properly... in vain. What I want to achieve is the following

      (notice the @List annotation) :

       

      @Target({METHOD, FIELD, ANNOTATION_TYPE, CONSTRUCTOR, PARAMETER})

      @Retention(RUNTIME)

      @Documented

      @Constraint(validatedBy = {})

      *public @interface *Email {

       

        String message() *default *"wrong email address";

       

        Class<?>[] groups() *default *{};

       

        Class<? *extends *Payload>[] payload() *default *{};

       

        @Target({METHOD, FIELD, ANNOTATION_TYPE, CONSTRUCTOR, PARAMETER

      })

        @Retention(RUNTIME)

        @*interface *List {

          Email[] value();

        }

      }

       

       

      This is the code I've written. Both annotation are generated separately...

      but I don't know how to add listAnnotation inside emailAnnotation. Any idea

      ?

       

      Thanks

       

       

      public class Main {

          public static void main(String[] args) {

       

              // This is the inner annotation List

              final JavaAnnotationSource listAnnotation =

      Roaster.create(JavaAnnotationSource.class);

              listAnnotation.setName("List");

              listAnnotation.addAnnotation(Retention.class).setEnumValue(RUNTIME);

              listAnnotation.addAnnotation(Target.class).setEnumValue(METHOD,

      FIELD, PARAMETER, TYPE);

              listAnnotation.addAnnotationElement("Email[] value()");

              System.out.println(listAnnotation);

       

              // This is the annotation @Email

              final JavaAnnotationSource emailAnnotation =

      Roaster.create(JavaAnnotationSource.class);

              emailAnnotation.setPackage("org.agoncal.proj.constraints").setName("Email");

              emailAnnotation.addImport(Payload.class);

              emailAnnotation.addAnnotation(Documented.class);

              emailAnnotation.addAnnotation(Retention.class).setEnumValue(RUNTIME);

              emailAnnotation.addAnnotation(Target.class).setEnumValue(METHOD,

      FIELD, PARAMETER, TYPE);

              emailAnnotation.addAnnotation(Constraint.class).setLiteralValue("validatedBy",

      "{}");

              emailAnnotation.addAnnotationElement("String message() default

      \"wrong email address\"");

              emailAnnotation.addAnnotationElement("Class<?>[] groups() default {}");

              emailAnnotation.addAnnotationElement("Class<? extends

      Payload>[] payload() default {}");

                      // I was expecting to have a method like that so I

      could add annotation inside another one

              // emailAnnotation.addAnnotationElement(emailAnnotation);

                      System.out.println(emailAnnotation);

       

          }

       

      }

          Why don't you model it like "NamedQueries/NamedQuery" ?

            It's not like I have the choice. This is the way you model a constraint

            with Bean Validation :

            http://beanvalidation.org/1.1/spec/#constraintsdefinitionimplementation-multipleconstraints

              Hey Antonio,

               

              I don't really know how to do this off the top of my head. My guess is that

              you'll need to do what you've done for the prior elements and provide the

              definition using a String. Will this work until we can add this

              functionality to the API?

                Hey Antonio,

                 

                I don't really know how to do this off the top of my head. My guess is that

                you'll need to do what you've done for the prior elements and provide the

                definition using a String. Will this work until we can add this

                functionality to the API?

                • 5. Re: [forge-dev] [Roaster] Don't know how to add an annotation inside another one

                  @Lincoln I think I did try passing a String but it didn't work. Let me have

                  an extra look at it

                   

                  @Matt I've added a comment to the JIRA

                  Hey Antonio,

                   

                  I don't really know how to do this off the top of my head. My guess is

                  that

                  you'll need to do what you've done for the prior elements and provide the

                  definition using a String. Will this work until we can add this

                  functionality to the API?

                    Hey Antonio. George fixed this in the most recent Roaster SNAPSHOT. Could

                    you give it a try? Hopefully we got it!
