CompositeCollection (Drools 4.0.0.11754MR2 API) - JBoss RULES 4.0.0.11754MR2 API 英文版文档


org.drools.util
Class CompositeCollection

java.lang.Object
  extended by org.drools.util.CompositeCollection
All Implemented Interfaces:
Iterable, Collection

public class CompositeCollection
extends Object
implements Collection

Decorates a collection of other collections to provide a single unified view.

Changes made to this collection will actually be made on the decorated collection. Add and remove operations require the use of a pluggable strategy. If no strategy is provided then add and remove are unsupported.

Commons Collections 3.0

Field Detail

mutator

protected CompositeCollection.CollectionMutator mutator
CollectionMutator to handle changes to the collection


all

protected Collection[] all
Collections in the composite

Constructor Detail

CompositeCollection

public CompositeCollection()
Create an empty CompositeCollection.


CompositeCollection

public CompositeCollection(Collection coll)
Create a Composite Collection with only coll composited.

Parameters:
coll - a collection to decorate

CompositeCollection

public CompositeCollection(Collection[] colls)
Create a CompositeCollection with colls as the initial list of composited collections.

Parameters:
colls - an array of collections to decorate
Method Detail

size

public int size()
Gets the size of this composite collection.

This implementation calls size() on each collection.

Specified by:
size in interface Collection
Returns:
total number of elements in all contained containers

isEmpty

public boolean isEmpty()
Checks whether this composite collection is empty.

This implementation calls isEmpty() on each collection.

Specified by:
isEmpty in interface Collection
Returns:
true if all of the contained collections are empty

contains

public boolean contains(Object obj)
Checks whether this composite collection contains the object.

This implementation calls contains() on each collection.

Specified by:
contains in interface Collection
Parameters:
obj - the object to search for
Returns:
true if obj is contained in any of the contained collections

iterator

public Iterator iterator()
Gets an iterator over all the collections in this composite.

This implementation uses an IteratorChain.

Specified by:
iterator in interface Iterable
Specified by:
iterator in interface Collection
Returns:
an IteratorChain instance which supports remove(). Iteration occurs over contained collections in the order they were added, but this behavior should not be relied upon.
See Also:
IteratorChain

toArray

public Object[] toArray()
Returns an array containing all of the elements in this composite.

Specified by:
toArray in interface Collection
Returns:
an object array of all the elements in the collection

toArray

public Object[] toArray(Object[] array)
Returns an object array, populating the supplied array if possible. See Collection interface for full details.

Specified by:
toArray in interface Collection
Parameters:
array - the array to use, populating if possible
Returns:
an array of all the elements in the collection

add

public boolean add(Object obj)
Adds an object to the collection, throwing UnsupportedOperationException unless a CollectionMutator strategy is specified.

Specified by:
add in interface Collection
Parameters:
obj - the object to add
Returns:
true if the collection was modified

Specified by:
clear in interface Collection
Throws:
UnsupportedOperationException - if clear is unsupported

setMutator

public void setMutator(CompositeCollection.CollectionMutator mutator)
Specify a CollectionMutator strategy instance to handle changes.

Parameters:
mutator - the mutator to use
