java.lang.Object
  org.pentaho.reporting.engine.classic.core.util.PropertyLookupParser

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

Direct Known Subclasses:

BeanPropertyLookupParser, SQLParameterLookupParser

public abstract class PropertyLookupParser
extends Object
implements Serializable

The property lookup parser is used to resolve embedded references to properties within strings.

The default format of the property specification is: ${property-name} where 'property-name is the name of the property. If this construct is found within the text, it is replaced with the value returned from a call to "lookupVariable".
