Class DefaultPicoContainer.KnowsContainerAdapter<T>

    • Method Detail

      • getComponentKey

        public java.lang.Object getComponentKey()
        Description copied from interface: ComponentAdapter
        Retrieve the key associated with the component.
        Specified by:
        getComponentKey in interface ComponentAdapter<T>
        Returns:
        the component's key. Should either be a class type (normally an interface) or an identifier that is unique (within the scope of the current PicoContainer).
      • getComponentImplementation

        public java.lang.Class<? extends T> getComponentImplementation()
        Description copied from interface: ComponentAdapter
        Retrieve the class of the component.
        Specified by:
        getComponentImplementation in interface ComponentAdapter<T>
        Returns:
        the component's implementation class. Should normally be a concrete class (ie, a class that can be instantiated).
      • getComponentInstance

        public T getComponentInstance​(PicoContainer container)
                               throws PicoCompositionException
        Description copied from interface: ComponentAdapter
        Retrieve the component instance. This method will usually create a new instance each time it is called, but that is not required. For example, Cached will always return the same instance.
        Specified by:
        getComponentInstance in interface ComponentAdapter<T>
        Parameters:
        container - the PicoContainer, that is used to resolve any possible dependencies of the instance.
        Returns:
        the component instance.
        Throws:
        PicoCompositionException - if the component has dependencies which could not be resolved, or instantiation of the component lead to an ambigous situation within the container.
      • getComponentInstance

        public T getComponentInstance​(PicoContainer container,
                                      java.lang.reflect.Type into)
                               throws PicoCompositionException
        Description copied from interface: ComponentAdapter
        Retrieve the component instance. This method will usually create a new instance each time it is called, but that is not required. For example, Cached will always return the same instance.
        Specified by:
        getComponentInstance in interface ComponentAdapter<T>
        Parameters:
        container - the PicoContainer, that is used to resolve any possible dependencies of the instance.
        into - the class that is about to be injected into. Use ComponentAdapter.NOTHING.class if this is not important to you.
        Returns:
        the component instance.
        Throws:
        PicoCompositionException - if the component has dependencies which could not be resolved, or instantiation of the component lead to an ambiguous situation within the container.
      • verify

        public void verify​(PicoContainer container)
                    throws PicoCompositionException
        Description copied from interface: ComponentAdapter
        Verify that all dependencies for this adapter can be satisfied. Normally, the adapter should verify this by checking that the associated PicoContainer contains all the needed dependencies.
        Specified by:
        verify in interface ComponentAdapter<T>
        Parameters:
        container - the PicoContainer, that is used to resolve any possible dependencies of the instance.
        Throws:
        PicoCompositionException - if one or more dependencies cannot be resolved.
      • accept

        public void accept​(PicoVisitor visitor)
        Description copied from interface: ComponentAdapter
        Accepts a visitor for this ComponentAdapter. The method is normally called by visiting a PicoContainer, that cascades the visitor also down to all its ComponentAdapter instances.
        Specified by:
        accept in interface ComponentAdapter<T>
        Parameters:
        visitor - the visitor.
      • getDelegate

        public ComponentAdapter getDelegate()
        Description copied from interface: ComponentAdapter
        Component adapters may be nested in a chain, and this method is used to grab the next ComponentAdapter in the chain.
        Specified by:
        getDelegate in interface ComponentAdapter<T>
        Returns:
        the next component adapter in line or null if there is no delegate ComponentAdapter.
      • findAdapterOfType

        public <U extends ComponentAdapter> U findAdapterOfType​(java.lang.Class<U> adapterType)
        Description copied from interface: ComponentAdapter
        Locates a component adapter of type componentAdapterType in the ComponentAdapter chain. Will return null if there is no adapter of the given type.
        Specified by:
        findAdapterOfType in interface ComponentAdapter<T>
        Type Parameters:
        U - the type of ComponentAdapter being located.
        Parameters:
        adapterType - the class of the adapter type being located. Never null.
        Returns:
        the appropriate component adapter of type U. May return null if the component adapter type is not returned.
      • getDescriptor

        public java.lang.String getDescriptor()
        Description copied from interface: ComponentAdapter
        Get a string key descriptor of the component adapter for use in toString()
        Specified by:
        getDescriptor in interface ComponentAdapter<T>
        Returns:
        the descriptor
