stringToObject
public uk.ac.starlink.util.Destination stringToObject(Environment env, java.lang.String sval) throws ParameterValueException
Description copied from class:Parameter
Takes a non-blank string, as supplied by the execution environment, and turns it into a typed value for this parameter. This method also performs validation, so if the string value is unacceptable in any way, a ParameterValueException should be thrown.It is an error to supply a null or empty string value.
If this method fails (throws a ParameterValueException) and if
allowClassnameValue
is set, then a subsequent attempt will be made to interpret thestringVal
as the classname of a suitable class with a no-arg constructor.- Specified by:
