Method Detail

setField

public static void setField(Object target,
                            String name,
                            Object value)

Set the field with the given name on the provided target object to the supplied value.

This method traverses the class hierarchy in search of the desired field. In addition, an attempt will be made to make non-public fields accessible, thus allowing one to set protected, private, and package-private fields.

Parameters:

target - the target object on which to set the field

name - the name of the field to set

value - the value to set

This method traverses the class hierarchy in search of the desired field. In addition, an attempt will be made to make non-public fields accessible, thus allowing one to get protected, private, and package-private fields.

Parameters:

name - the name of the field to get

Returns:

the field's current value
