public interface ILabelGenerator<T>
ILabelGenerator provides an extensible capability to derive a customized text string for an object. This is typically used to provide debug or UI descriptions of objects.
Extensibility is provided by registering new label generators with the registry to
support additional classes. These may be registered automatically through use of the
org.eclipse.ocl.examples.common.label_generator
extension point.
Minor customization can be achieved by using a modified Builder to build the label. The builder can be parameterised by options.
Full customization can be achieved by using an alternate Registry with completely different label generators..
Nested Class Summary | |
---|---|
static interface |
ILabelGenerator.Builder
An ILabelGenerator.Builder (typically realised by a StringBuilder) builds the generated label. |
static interface |
ILabelGenerator.Descriptor
An ILabelGenerator.Descriptor may be used by the ILabelGenerator.Registry
to defer loading of the labelled class until an instance needs a label. |
static interface |
ILabelGenerator.Option<T>
An ILabelGenerator.Builder may have options with an associated typed value. |
static interface |
ILabelGenerator.Registry
An ILabelGenerator.Registry maintains a mapping from the
class name to be labelled and the label generator that can build its
label. |
static interface |
ILabelGenerator.Self
Self defines the interface of an object able to label itself. |
