AnnotationProvider

All Known Implementing Classes:

PropertyModelImpl
```
public interface PropertyModel
extends AnnotationProvider
```
Part of a BeanModel that defines the attributes of a single property of a bean. A PropertyModel is also an AnnotationProvider, as long as the PropertyConduit is non-null. When there is no property conduit, then AnnotationProvider.getAnnotation(Class) will return null.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`PropertyModel`	`dataType)`	Changes the data type for the property.
`PropertyConduit`	`getConduit()`	Returns an object used to read or update the property.
	`getDataType()`	Returns a logical name for the type of UI needed to view or edit the property.
	`getId()`	Returns the id used to access other resources (this is based on the property name, but with any excess punctuation stripped out).
	`getLabel()`	Returns a user-presentable label for the property.
	`getPropertyName()`	Returns the name of the property (which may, in fact, be a property expression).
	`getPropertyType()`	Returns the type of the property.
`boolean`	`isSortable()`	Returns true if the property can be used for sorting.
`PropertyModel`	`label)`	Changes the label for the property to the provided value.
`BeanModel`	`model()`	Returns the containing model, often used for "fluent" construction of the model.
`PropertyModel`	`sortable(boolean sortable)`	Updates sortable and returns the model for further changes.

- Method Detail
  - getPropertyName
```
 getPropertyName()
```
    Returns the name of the property (which may, in fact, be a property expression).
  - getId
```
 getId()
```
    Returns the id used to access other resources (this is based on the property name, but with any excess punctuation stripped out).
  - getLabel
```
 getLabel()
```
    Returns a user-presentable label for the property.
  - getPropertyType
```
 getPropertyType()
```
    Returns the type of the property.
  - getDataType
```
 getDataType()
```
    Returns a logical name for the type of UI needed to view or edit the property. This is initially determined from the property type.
  - dataType
```
 dataType)
```
    Changes the data type for the property.
    
    Parameters:
    
    dataType -
    
    Returns:
    
    the property model, for further changes
  - getConduit
```
PropertyConduit getConduit()
```
    Returns an object used to read or update the property. For virtual properties (properties that do not actually exist on the bean), the conduit may be null.
  - label
```
 label)
```
    Changes the label for the property to the provided value.
    
    Parameters:
    
    label - new label for property
    
    Returns:
    
    the property model, for further changes
  - model
```
BeanModel model()
```
    Returns the containing model, often used for "fluent" construction of the model.
  - isSortable
```
boolean isSortable()
```
    Returns true if the property can be used for sorting. By default, this is true only if the property type implements Comparable.
  - sortable
```
PropertyModel sortable(boolean sortable)
```
    Updates sortable and returns the model for further changes.
    
    Returns:
    
    the property model, for further changes
