I have groovy script that has a function with 2 arguments, one of which is a hashmap. I want to check the name of a hashmap variable contains a substring or not, inside a function. How do i do it?
def myfunc(String var, HashMap var2)
{
// need a routine to retrive the name of the variable var2
}
It's well explained here : Getting the name of a method parameter
To access groovy script's method follow syntax :
metaClass.methods
Sounds like you want the --parameters (alias -pa) compiler argument.
Generates metadata for reflection on method parameter names on JDK 8 and above. Defaults to false.
Usage: groovy --parameters Person.groovy
Also available for groovyc, groovyConsole, groovysh and groovy ant tasks. Check out the PR some awesome person contributed...
e.g.
class HelloWorld {
static void speak(String firstName) {
println "Hello $firstName"
}
}
Student.methods.each {
if (it.name === 'speak') println it.parameters
}
// groovy HelloWorld.groovy => "[java.lang.String arg0]"
// groovy -pa HelloWorld.groovy => "[java.lang.String firstName]"
