        public void setProperties​(java.util.Properties properties,
                                  java.lang.String prefix)

      • setProperty

        public void setProperty​(java.lang.String name,
                                java.lang.String value)
        Set a property on this PropertySetter's Object. If successful, this method will invoke a setter method on the underlying Object. The setter is the one for the specified property name and the value is determined partly from the setter argument type and partly from the value specified in the call to this method.

        If the setter expects a String no conversion is necessary. If it expects an int, then an attempt is made to convert 'value' to an int using new Integer(value). If the setter expects a boolean, the conversion is by new Boolean(value).

        Parameters:
        name - name of the property
        value - String value of the property

                         throws PropertySetterException
        Set the named property given a PropertyDescriptor.
