Retrieving the inherited attribute names/values using Java Reflection

问题


I\'ve a Java object \'ChildObj\' which is extended from \'ParentObj\'. Now, if it is possible to retrieve all the attribute names and values of ChildObj, including the inherited attributes too, using Java reflection mechanism?

Class.getFields gives me the array of public attributes, and Class.getDeclaredFields gives me the array of all fields, but none of them includes the inherited fields list.

Is there any way to retrieve the inherited attributes also?


回答1:


no, you need to write it yourself. It is a simple recursive method called on Class.getSuperClass():

public static List<Field> getAllFields(List<Field> fields, Class<?> type) {
    fields.addAll(Arrays.asList(type.getDeclaredFields()));

    if (type.getSuperclass() != null) {
        getAllFields(fields, type.getSuperclass());
    }

    return fields;
}

@Test
public void getLinkedListFields() {
    System.out.println(getAllFields(new LinkedList<Field>(), LinkedList.class));
}

    public static List<Field> getAllFields(Class<?> type) {
        List<Field> fields = new ArrayList<Field>();
        for (Class<?> c = type; c != null; c = c.getSuperclass()) {
            fields.addAll(Arrays.asList(c.getDeclaredFields()));
        }
        return fields;
    }

If instead you wanted to rely upon a library to accomplish this, Apache Commons Lang version 3.2+ provides FieldUtils.getAllFieldsList:

import java.lang.reflect.Field;
import java.util.AbstractCollection;
import java.util.AbstractList;
import java.util.AbstractSequentialList;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.LinkedList;
import java.util.List;

import org.apache.commons.lang3.reflect.FieldUtils;
import org.junit.Assert;
import org.junit.Test;

public class FieldUtilsTest {

    @Test
    public void testGetAllFieldsList() {

        // Get all fields in this class and all of its parents
        final List<Field> allFields = FieldUtils.getAllFieldsList(LinkedList.class);

        // Get the fields form each individual class in the type's hierarchy
        final List<Field> allFieldsClass = Arrays.asList(LinkedList.class.getFields());
        final List<Field> allFieldsParent = Arrays.asList(AbstractSequentialList.class.getFields());
        final List<Field> allFieldsParentsParent = Arrays.asList(AbstractList.class.getFields());
        final List<Field> allFieldsParentsParentsParent = Arrays.asList(AbstractCollection.class.getFields());

        // Test that `getAllFieldsList` did truly get all of the fields of the the class and all its parents 
        Assert.assertTrue(allFields.containsAll(allFieldsClass));
        Assert.assertTrue(allFields.containsAll(allFieldsParent));
        Assert.assertTrue(allFields.containsAll(allFieldsParentsParent));
        Assert.assertTrue(allFields.containsAll(allFieldsParentsParentsParent));
    }
}



回答4:


You need to call:

Class.getSuperclass().getDeclaredFields()

Recursing up the inheritance hierarchy as necessary.




回答5:


Use Reflections library:

public Set<Field> getAllFields(Class<?> aClass) {
    return org.reflections.ReflectionUtils.getAllFields(aClass);
}



回答6:


The recursive solutions are OK, the only small issue is that they return a superset of declared and inherited members. Note that getDeclaredFields() method returns also private methods. So given that you navigate the whole superclass hierarchy you will include all private fields declared in the superclasses, and those don't get inherited.

A simple filter with a Modifier.isPublic || Modifier.isProtected predicate would do:

import static java.lang.reflect.Modifier.isPublic;
import static java.lang.reflect.Modifier.isProtected;

(...)

List<Field> inheritableFields = new ArrayList<Field>();
for (Field field : type.getDeclaredFields()) {
    if (isProtected(field.getModifiers()) || isPublic(field.getModifiers())) {
       inheritableFields.add(field);
    }
}



回答7:


private static void addDeclaredAndInheritedFields(Class<?> c, Collection<Field> fields) {
    fields.addAll(Arrays.asList(c.getDeclaredFields())); 
    Class<?> superClass = c.getSuperclass(); 
    if (superClass != null) { 
        addDeclaredAndInheritedFields(superClass, fields); 
    }       
}

Working version of "DidYouMeanThatTomHa..." solution above




回答8:


You can try:

   Class parentClass = getClass().getSuperclass();
   if (parentClass != null) {
      parentClass.getDeclaredFields();
   }



回答9:


Shorter and with less object instantiated ? ^^

private static Field[] getAllFields(Class<?> type) {
    if (type.getSuperclass() != null) {
        return (Field[]) ArrayUtils.addAll(getAllFields(type.getSuperclass()), type.getDeclaredFields());
    }
    return type.getDeclaredFields();
}



回答10:


private static void addDeclaredAndInheritedFields(Class c, Collection<Field> fields) {
    fields.addAll(Arrays.asList(c.getDeclaredFields()));
    Class superClass = c.getSuperclass();
    if (superClass != null) {
        addDeclaredAndInheritedFields(superClass, fields);
    }
}

This is a rewording of the accepted answer by @user1079877. It might that a version which does not modify a parameter of the function and also uses some modern Java features.

public <T> Field[] getFields(final Class<T> type, final Field... fields) {
    final Field[] items = Stream.of(type.getDeclaredFields(), fields).flatMap(Stream::of).toArray(Field[]::new);
    if (type.getSuperclass() == null) {
        return items;
    } else {
        return getFields(type.getSuperclass(), items);
    }
}

This implementation also makes invocation a bit more concise:

var fields = getFields(MyType.class);

I recently saw this code from org.apache.commons.lang3.reflect.FieldUtils

public static List<Field> getAllFieldsList(final Class<?> cls) {
        Validate.isTrue(cls != null, "The class must not be null");
        final List<Field> allFields = new ArrayList<>();
        Class<?> currentClass = cls;
        while (currentClass != null) {
            final Field[] declaredFields = currentClass.getDeclaredFields();
            Collections.addAll(allFields, declaredFields);
            currentClass = currentClass.getSuperclass();
        }
        return allFields;
}

There are a couple of quirks that aren't addressed by FieldUtils - specifically synthetic fields (eg injected by JaCoCo) and also the fact that an enum type of course has a field for each instance, and if you are traversing an object graph, getting all fields and then getting the fields of each of them etc, then you will get into an infinite loop when you hit an enum. An extended solution (and to be honest I'm sure this must live in a library somewhere!) would be:

/**
 * Return a list containing all declared fields and all inherited fields for the given input
 * (but avoiding any quirky enum fields and tool injected fields).
 */
public List<Field> getAllFields(Object input) {
    return getFieldsAndInheritedFields(new ArrayList<>(), input.getClass());
}

private List<Field> getFieldsAndInheritedFields(List<Field> fields, Class<?> inputType) {
    fields.addAll(getFilteredDeclaredFields(inputType));
    return inputType.getSuperclass() == null ? fields : getFieldsAndInheritedFields(fields, inputType.getSuperclass());

}

/**
 * Where the input is NOT an {@link Enum} type then get all declared fields except synthetic fields (ie instrumented
 * additional fields). Where the input IS an {@link Enum} type then also skip the fields that are all the
 * {@link Enum} instances as this would lead to an infinite loop if the user of this class is traversing
 * an object graph.
 */
private List<Field> getFilteredDeclaredFields(Class<?> inputType) {
    return Arrays.asList(inputType.getDeclaredFields()).stream()
                 .filter(field -> !isAnEnum(inputType) ||
                         (isAnEnum(inputType) && !isSameType(field, inputType)))
                 .filter(field -> !field.isSynthetic())
                 .collect(Collectors.toList());

}

private boolean isAnEnum(Class<?> type) {
    return Enum.class.isAssignableFrom(type);
}

private boolean isSameType(Field input, Class<?> ownerType) {
    return input.getType().equals(ownerType);
}

Test class in Spock (and Groovy adds synthetic fields):

class ReflectionUtilsSpec extends Specification {

    def "declared fields only"() {

        given: "an instance of a class that does not inherit any fields"
        def instance = new Superclass()

        when: "all fields are requested"
        def result = new ReflectionUtils().getAllFields(instance)

        then: "the fields declared by that instance's class are returned"
        result.size() == 1
        result.findAll { it.name in ['superThing'] }.size() == 1
    }


    def "inherited fields"() {

        given: "an instance of a class that inherits fields"
        def instance = new Subclass()

        when: "all fields are requested"
        def result = new ReflectionUtils().getAllFields(instance)

        then: "the fields declared by that instance's class and its superclasses are returned"
        result.size() == 2
        result.findAll { it.name in ['subThing', 'superThing'] }.size() == 2

    }

    def "no fields"() {
        given: "an instance of a class with no declared or inherited fields"
        def instance = new SuperDooperclass()

        when: "all fields are requested"
        def result = new ReflectionUtils().getAllFields(instance)

        then: "the fields declared by that instance's class and its superclasses are returned"
        result.size() == 0
    }

    def "enum"() {

        given: "an instance of an enum"
        def instance = Item.BIT

        when: "all fields are requested"
        def result = new ReflectionUtils().getAllFields(instance)

        then: "the fields declared by that instance's class and its superclasses are returned"
        result.size() == 3
        result.findAll { it.name == 'smallerItem' }.size() == 1
    }

    private class SuperDooperclass {
    }

    private class Superclass extends SuperDooperclass {
        private String superThing
    }


    private class Subclass extends Superclass {
        private String subThing
    }

    private enum Item {

        BIT("quark"), BOB("muon")

        Item(String smallerItem) {
            this.smallerItem = smallerItem
        }

        private String smallerItem

    }
}
