Package org.apache.commons.chain.impl

Class ContextBase

java.lang.Object

java.util.AbstractMap<K,V>

java.util.HashMap

org.apache.commons.chain.impl.ContextBase

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.util.Map, Context

Direct Known Subclasses:

WebContext

public class ContextBase
extends java.util.HashMap
implements Context

Convenience base class for Context implementations.

In addition to the minimal functionality required by the Context interface, this class implements the recommended support for Attribute-Property Transparency. This is implemented by analyzing the available JavaBeans properties of this class (or its subclass), exposes them as key-value pairs in the Map, with the key being the name of the property itself.

IMPLEMENTATION NOTE - Because empty is a read-only property defined by the Map interface, it may not be utilized as an attribute key or property name.

Field Detail

descriptors

private transient java.util.Map descriptors

The PropertyDescriptors for all JavaBeans properties of this Context implementation class, keyed by property name. This collection is allocated only if there are any JavaBeans properties.

pd

private transient java.beans.PropertyDescriptor[] pd

The same PropertyDescriptors as an array.

singleton

private static java.lang.Object singleton

Distinguished singleton value that is stored in the map for each key that is actually a property. This value is used to ensure that equals() comparisons will always fail.

zeroParams

private static java.lang.Object[] zeroParams

Zero-length array of parameter values for calling property getters.

Constructor Detail

ContextBase

public ContextBase()

Default, no argument constructor.

ContextBase

public ContextBase(java.util.Map map)

Initialize the contents of this Context by copying the values from the specified Map. Any keys in map that correspond to local properties will cause the setter method for that property to be called.

Parameters:

map - Map whose key-value pairs are added

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if an exception is thrown writing a local property value

java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException - if a local property does not have a write method.

Method Detail
