Method Detail

setInterfaceName

public void setInterfaceName(java.lang.String pName)
                      throws java.lang.ClassNotFoundException

Sets the Java interface. Similar to setInterface(Class.forName(pName)).

Throws:

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException

setInterface

public void setInterface(java.lang.Class pClass)

Sets the Java interface.

getInterface

public java.lang.Class getInterface()

Returns the Java interface.

setMandatory

public void setMandatory(boolean pMandatory)

Sets whether this interface is mandatory. By default interfaces are mandatory and the backing objects must implement this interface. If an interface isn't mandatory, then a Proxy instance can be created even for objects which don't implement the interface. However, in that case it may happen that a ClassCastException is thrown while invoking a method declared by the interface.

isMandatory

public boolean isMandatory()

Returns whether this interface is mandatory. By default interfaces are mandatory and the backing objects must implement this interface. If an interface isn't mandatory, then a Proxy instance can be created even for objects which don't implement the interface.
