Class VisibilityFilter

  • public final class VisibilityFilter
extends Object
    This class is used as filter for properties discovery. It uses java modifiers to check if a property (can be a method, field, constructor or any class that implements Member interface) is visible.

    The filter acts by excluding the properties with specified modifiers. Here are some examples : 

     // will filter nothing :
 new VisibilityFilter();

 // exclude only private and transient:
 new VisibilityFilter(Modifier.TRANSIENT, Modifier.PRIVATE);

 // exclude only public!! and allow all the rest
 new VisibilityFilter(Modifier.public);

    So the idea is to pass to the constructor all the Modifier.XXX modifiers that you want to be filtered.
