Interface IAdaptingStrategy

All Superinterfaces:

IStrategy

All Known Implementing Classes:

ExactMatchAdaptingStrategy, NameMatchAdaptingStrategy

public interface IAdaptingStrategy
extends IStrategy

Abstract definition of the adapting strategy to use e.g.

• Signature exact matching: the Adaptee and Target methods (name and parameters) must match or at least the Adaptee methods must be a subset of Target methods
• Signature types matching: the Adaptee and Target methods must match or at least the Adaptee methods must be a subset of the type signature of the Target methods
• Names mapping: The user defines dynamically the correspondence between methods in Adaptee and Target by name

Method Summary

Method	resolve(Class<?> aTargetClass, Object anAdaptee, Object anAdapter, Method aTargetMethod) Returns the Adaptee or otherwise Adapter method that corresponds to the given Target class type.
void	validate(Class<?> aTargetClass, Object anAdaptee, Object anAdapter) According to the definition of this strategy validates the tuple Target/Adaptee.

Method Detail

validate

void validate(Class<?> aTargetClass,
              Object anAdaptee,
              Object anAdapter)
              throws NoSuchMethodError

According to the definition of this strategy validates the tuple Target/Adaptee. Should the two not match an NoSuchMethodError will be thrown.

Parameters:

aTargetClass - Target class type

anAdaptee - Adaptee instance

anAdapter - Adapter instance

Throws:

NoSuchMethodError

resolve

Method resolve(Class<?> aTargetClass,
               Object anAdaptee,
               Object anAdapter,
               Method aTargetMethod)
               throws NoSuchMethodError

Returns the Adaptee or otherwise Adapter method that corresponds to the given Target class type. If the corresponding method is not found an NoSuchMethodError will be thrown.

Parameters:

aTargetClass - Target class type

anAdaptee - Adaptee instance

anAdapter - Adapter instance

aTargetMethod - Target method to search for in the Adaptee

Returns:

Adaptee method that corresponds to the given Target class type

Throws:

NoSuchMethodError
