Class MultilineRecursiveToStringStyle

java.lang.Object

org.apache.commons.lang3.builder.ToStringStyle

org.apache.commons.lang3.builder.RecursiveToStringStyle

org.apache.commons.lang3.builder.MultilineRecursiveToStringStyle

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class MultilineRecursiveToStringStyle
extends RecursiveToStringStyle

Works with ToStringBuilder to create a "deep" toString. But instead a single line like the RecursiveToStringStyle this creates a multiline String similar to the ToStringStyle.MULTI_LINE_STYLE.

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 MultilineRecursiveToStringStyle()).toString();
   }
 }
 

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

Since:

3.4
