Record Class ToolParameter

java.lang.Object
java.lang.Record
com.tnsai.tools.method.ToolParameter
Record Components:
name - the LLM-facing parameter name (defaults to the reflected Java parameter name when the -parameters compile flag is set)
description - human-readable description surfaced to the LLM
type - the parameter's static Java Type including generic information (e.g. List<String>)
required - whether the parameter must be present in every LLM call
defaultValue - default value string parsed to type when the LLM omits the parameter; empty string means no default

public record ToolParameter(String name, String description, Type type, boolean required, String defaultValue) extends Record
Metadata for a single parameter of a ToolMethod.

Built by ToolMethodRegistry when scanning a POJO for Tool-annotated methods. Holds the LLM-facing name + description plus the static Java Type so the dispatcher can coerce the LLM's JSON argument to the right value.

Since:
0.5.7 (LangChain-style tool refactor — see issue #188)

      Specified by:
      toString in class Record
      Returns:
      a string representation of this object
    • hashCode

      public final int hashCode()
      Returns a hash code value for this object. The value is derived from the hash code of each of the record components.
      Specified by:
      hashCode in class Record
      Returns:
      a hash code value for this object
    • equals

      public final boolean equals(Object o)
      Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one. The objects are equal if the other object is of the same class and if all the record components are equal. Reference components are compared with Objects::equals(Object,Object); primitive components are compared with '=='.
      Specified by:
      equals in class Record
      Parameters:
      o - the object with which to compare
      Returns:
      true if this object is the same as the o argument; false otherwise.
