Class RecursiveToStringStyle

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    MultilineRecursiveToStringStyle
    public class RecursiveToStringStyle
extends ToStringStyle
    Works with ToStringBuilder to create a "deep" toString.

    To use this class write code as follows:

     public class Job {
   String title;
   ...
 }

 public class Person {
   String name;
   int age;
   boolean smoker;
   Job job;

   ...

   public String toString() {
     return new ReflectionToStringBuilder(this, new RecursiveToStringStyle()).toString();
   }
 }

    This will produce a toString of the format: Person@7f54[name=Stephen,age=29,smoker=false,job=Job@43cd2[title=Manager]]
