Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods Default Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`boolean`	`canConvert(java.lang.Class<?> targetType)`	Determine if this converter can convert from a `String` to the supplied target type (which is guaranteed to be a wrapper type for primitives — for example, `Integer` instead of `int`).
`java.lang.Object`	`convert(java.lang.String source, java.lang.Class<?> targetType)`	Convert the supplied `String` to the supplied target type (which is guaranteed to be a wrapper type for primitives — for example, `Integer` instead of `int`).
`default java.lang.Object`	`convert(java.lang.String source, java.lang.Class<?> targetType, java.lang.ClassLoader classLoader)`	Convert the supplied `String` to the supplied target type (which is guaranteed to be a wrapper type for primitives — for example, `Integer` instead of `int`).

boolean canConvert(java.lang.Class<?> targetType)

    Determine if this converter can convert from a String to the supplied target type (which is guaranteed to be a wrapper type for primitives — for example, Integer instead of int).
  - convert
```
java.lang.Object convert(java.lang.String source,
                         java.lang.Class<?> targetType)
                  throws java.lang.Exception
```
    Convert the supplied String to the supplied target type (which is guaranteed to be a wrapper type for primitives — for example, Integer instead of int).
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.Exception
  - convert
```
default java.lang.Object convert(java.lang.String source,
                                 java.lang.Class<?> targetType,
                                 java.lang.ClassLoader classLoader)
                          throws java.lang.Exception
```
    Convert the supplied String to the supplied target type (which is guaranteed to be a wrapper type for primitives — for example, Integer instead of int).
    The default implementation simply delegates to convert(String, Class). Can be overridden by concrete implementations of this interface that need access to the supplied ClassLoader.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.Exception
