Get name of a field

Question

Is it possible in Java to get a name of field in string from the actual field? like:

public class mod {
    @ItemID
    public static ItemLinkTool linkTool;
         


        

Answer 1

I think this is what you are looking for.

SomeClass data; // or List data; etc.
List fieldNames = getFieldNamesForClass(data.get(0).getClass());

private static List getFieldNamesForClass(Class clazz) throws Exception {
    List fieldNames = new ArrayList();
    Field[] fields = clazz.getDeclaredFields();
    for (int i = 0; i < fields.length; i++) {
        fieldNames.add(fields[i].getName());
    }
    return fieldNames;
}
