Class Introspectable

java.lang.Object

org.apache.juneau.rest.converters.Introspectable

All Implemented Interfaces:

RestConverter

public final class Introspectable
extends Object
implements RestConverter

Converter for enablement of PojoIntrospector support on response objects returned by a @RestMethod method.

When enabled, public methods can be called on objects returned through the RestResponse.setOutput(Object) method.

Note that opening up public methods for calling through a REST interface can be dangerous, and should be done with caution.

Java methods are invoked by passing in the following URL parameters:

• &invokeMethod - The Java method name, optionally with arguments if necessary to differentiate between methods.
• &invokeArgs - The arguments as a JSON array.
