Is it possible to get the name of a variable in Java at runtime?
Possible use case: in assertions. Given an assertion like
assert percval >= 0 && percval <= 100 : "percval out of range: " + percval;
Depending on your IDE, if you refactor the code, rename the variable, it may not automatically change occurrences in strings. Possible result:
assert percentage >= 0 && percentage <= 100 : "percval out of range: " + percentage;
Would be nice if there was something like this:
assert percval >= 0 && percval <= 100 : nameOf(percval) + " out of range: " + percval;
Possible?
I am not sure if it was possible before java 8 but with java 8, you can follow the following link and achieve what you want to do.
The summary of this is given as follows;
Provide a mechanism to easily and reliably retrieve the parameter names of methods and constructors at runtime via core reflection.
