  • Method Details

    • getObjectValue

      Object getObjectValue()

      Answer the raw, untyped, value of this annotation value.

      The raw value of the annotation is set when the annotation value is constructed, and includes at least a raw value, and may optionally include an the name of the enumeration type of the value.

      When the type of the value is known, a casting getter may be used to retrieve the typed value. See, for example, getLongValue(), amount several typing getters. If the casting getter does not match the set type, a class cast exception will occur.

      Returns:
      The raw, untyped, value of this annotation value.
