question: public ReflectiveAttribute ( Class < O > objectType , Class < A > fieldType , String fieldName ) { super ( objectType , fieldType , fieldName ) ; Field field ; try { field = getField ( objectType , fieldName ) ; if ( ! field . isAccessible ( ) ) { field . setAccessible ( true ) ; } } catch ( Exception e ) { throw new IllegalStateException ( "Invalid attribute definition: No such field '" + fieldName + "' in object '" + objectType . getName ( ) + "'" ) ; } if ( ! fieldType . isAssignableFrom ( field . getType ( ) ) ) { throw new IllegalStateException ( "Invalid attribute definition: The type of field '" + fieldName + "', type '" + field . getType ( ) + "', in object '" + objectType . getName ( ) + "', is not assignable to the type indicated: " + fieldType . getName ( ) ) ; } this . field = field ; }
