JarCastingAutoValue: Nested toString()
An extension for Google's AutoValue that prepends the enclosing classes' names to the toString() method of a @Nested annotated nested class.
Usage
Apply the @Nested annotation to any nested class whose toString() you wish to modify in order to include the enclosing classes.
public class TopLevelClass {
public static class NestedClass {
@AutoValue
@Nested
public static abstract class NestedInNestedClass {
public abstract String property();
}
}
}
When you call a NestedInNestedClass instance's toString() this will include the enclosing classes at the beginning
TopLevelClass.NestedClass.NestedInNestedClass{property=name} //auto-value-nested-tostring
as opposed to AutoValue's default (simple class name)
NestedInNestedClass{property=name} //AutoValue's default
