stringToObject

public Match1Type stringToObject(Environment env,
                                 String sval)
                          throws ParameterValueException

Description copied from class: Parameter

Takes a non-blank string, as supplied by the execution environment, and turns it into a typed value for this parameter. This method also performs validation, so if the string value is unacceptable in any way, a ParameterValueException should be thrown.

It is an error to supply a null or empty string value.

If this method fails (throws a ParameterValueException) and if allowClassnameValue is set, then a subsequent attempt will be made to interpret the stringVal as the classname of a suitable class with a no-arg constructor.

Specified by:

stringToObject in class Parameter<Match1Type>

Parameters:

env - execution environment; in most cases this is not required but for some purposes environment-specific characteristics may influence the result

sval - non-null, non-empty string value

Returns:

typed value

Throws:

ParameterValueException
