Constructor Detail

DelegatingEList

public DelegatingEList()
Creates an empty instance.


DelegatingEList

public DelegatingEList(java.util.Collection<? extends E> collection)
Creates an instance that is a copy of the collection.

Parameters:
collection - the initial contents of the list.
Method Detail

useEquals

protected boolean useEquals()
Returns whether equals rather than == should be used to compare members. The default is to return true but clients can optimize performance by returning false. The performance difference is highly significant.

Returns:
whether equals rather than == should be used.

equalObjects

protected boolean equalObjects(java.lang.Object firstObject,
                               java.lang.Object secondObject)
Returns whether two objects are equal using the appropriate comparison mechanism.

Returns:
whether two objects are equal.

canContainNull

protected boolean canContainNull()
Returns whether null is a valid object for the list. The default is to return true, but clients can override this to exclude null.

Returns:
whether null is a valid object for the list.

isUnique

protected boolean isUnique()
Returns whether objects are constrained to appear at most once in the list. The default is to return false, but clients can override this to ensure uniqueness of contents. The performance impact is significant: operations such as add are O(n) as a result requiring uniqueness.

Returns:
whether objects are constrained to appear at most once in the list.

validate

protected E validate(int index,
                     E object)
Validates a new content object and returns the validated object. This implementation checks for null, if necessary and returns the argument object. Clients may throw additional types of runtime exceptions in order to handle constraint violations.

Parameters:
index - the position of the new content.
object - the new content.
Returns:
the validated content.
Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if a constraint prevents the object from being added.

resolve

protected E resolve(int index,
                    E object)
Resolves the object at the index and returns the result. This implementation simply returns the object; clients can use this to transform objects as they are fetched.

Parameters:
index - the position of the content.
object - the content.
Returns:
the resolved object.

didSet

                      E newObject,
                      E oldObject)
Called to indicate that the backing store list has been set. This implementation does nothing; clients can use this to monitor settings to the backing store list.

Parameters:
index - the position that was set.
newObject - the new object at the position.
oldObject - the old object at the position.

didAdd

protected void didAdd(int index,
                      E newObject)
Called to indicate that an object has been added to the backing store list. This implementation does nothing; clients can use this to monitor additions to the backing store list.

Parameters:
index - the position object the new object.
newObject - the new object at the position.

didRemove

protected void didRemove(int index,
                         E oldObject)
Called to indicate that an object has been removed from the backing store list. This implementation does nothing; clients can use this to monitor removals from the backing store list.

Parameters:
index - the position of the old object.
oldObject - the old object at the position.

didClear

protected void didClear(int size,
                        java.lang.Object[] oldObjects)
Called to indicate that the backing store list has been cleared. This implementation calls didRemove for each object; clients can use this to monitor clearing of the backing store list.

Parameters:
size - the original size of the list.
oldObjects - the old backing store list being discarded.
See Also:
didRemove(int, E)

didMove

protected void didMove(int index,
                       E movedObject,
                       int oldIndex)
Called to indicate that an object has been moved in the backing store list. This implementation does nothing; clients can use this to monitor movement in the backing store list.

Parameters:
index - the position of the moved object.
movedObject - the moved object at the position.
oldIndex - the position the object was at before the move.
