All Implemented Interfaces:

Bean, Bean.Internal, java.lang.Cloneable, InitializableBean, ModelElement, java.io.Serializable

Direct Known Subclasses:

ProxyBean

public abstract class AbstractProxyBean

extends AbstractModelElement

implements Bean, Bean.Internal, InitializableBean

Standard implementation of a Bean. This class does not implement the nice domain specific methods, but can be subclassed to do so.

Method Detail

initBeanCreated

public void initBeanCreated(BeanInit init)

Initialize after the constructor

Specified by:

initBeanCreated in interface InitializableBean

getBeanType

public java.lang.Class getBeanType()

Description copied from interface: Bean

Get the bean's type. This will be a Class object which implements this interface.

Specified by:

getBeanType in interface Bean

Returns:

the bean type

See Also:

Bean.getBeanType()

getThis

protected Bean getThis()

Get 'this'. This can be overriden to provide an alternate this object, typically for Proxy implementations. Note that this method cannot be used in a constructor.

getIdentifier

public java.lang.String getIdentifier()

Get a unique identifier for this object

Returns:

unique identifier

setIdentifier

public void setIdentifier(java.lang.String id)

Set a unique identifier for this object

getPropertyMap

public java.util.Map getPropertyMap()

Description copied from interface: Bean

Get the Map of Property objects. The map is modifiable, but care should be taken with this flexibility. It allows extra properties to be dynamically added to a Bean for example. However this also allows a Bean's real properties to be removed! Thus use the modifiability with care.

Specified by:

getPropertyMap in interface Bean

Returns:

the Map of Property objects, keyed by String property name

See Also:

Bean.getPropertyMap()

getProperty

public Property getProperty(java.lang.String key)

Description copied from interface: Bean

Get a Property object by name. If a property does not exist, null will be returned.

Specified by:

getProperty in interface Bean

Parameters:

key - the name of the property to obtain

Returns:

the property, or null if none found

See Also:

Bean.getProperty(String)

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object object)

Equals is implemented to perform a deep equality check on all properties.

Specified by:

equals in interface Bean

Overrides:

equals in class java.lang.Object

Parameters:

object - the object to check against

Returns:

true if equals

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Get the hashCode for the bean. Beans should not really be used as keys in HashMaps as they are mutable. (Keys should be immutable, as if the value changes, the HashMap will fail to return the value). Thus this method always returns one (zero generally refers to null).

The effect of this is inefficient HashMaps. The HashMap will fall back to using equals() when the hashCode() is the same. Thus, as long as the objects are not changed, the Map.get() should work.

Specified by:

hashCode in interface Bean

Overrides:

hashCode in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

a suitable hashcode

See Also:

Object.hashCode()

cloneDeep

public java.lang.Object cloneDeep()

Deep clone the bean.

Specified by:

cloneDeep in interface Bean

Returns:

deep clone of this bean

See Also:

Object.clone()

cloneDeep

public Bean cloneDeep(IdentityBasedHashMap clonedObjects)

Description copied from interface: Bean.Internal

Clone this bean avoiding recursion.

Specified by:

cloneDeep in interface Bean.Internal

Parameters:

clonedObjects - the map of original element to cloned element

See Also:

Bean.Internal#cloneDeep(IdentityBasedHashMap)

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Get a debug string for the property.

Specified by:

toString in interface Bean

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

debug string, never null
