public final class Values
extends Object

This class is a central access point for loading generated heap and native Values.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
static <T> Class<T>	heapClassFor(Class<T> valueType) Generates (if not yet) and returns a heap implementation for the given value interface.
static boolean	isValueInterfaceOrImplClass(Class<?> valueTypeOrImplClass)
static <T> Class<T>	nativeClassFor(Class<T> valueType) Generates (if not yet) and returns a native (flyweight) implementation for the given value interface.
static <T> T	newHeapInstance(Class<T> valueType) Equivalent for heapClassFor(valueType).newInstance().
static <T> T	newNativeReference(Class<T> valueType) Equivalent for nativeClassFor(valueType).newInstance().

Method Detail

isValueInterfaceOrImplClass

public static boolean isValueInterfaceOrImplClass(Class<?> valueTypeOrImplClass)

newHeapInstance

public static <T> T newHeapInstance(Class<T> valueType)

Equivalent for heapClassFor(valueType).newInstance().

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the given valueType is not a value interface

ImplGenerationFailedException - if generation of a heap implementation failed

newNativeReference

public static <T> T newNativeReference(Class<T> valueType)

Equivalent for nativeClassFor(valueType).newInstance().

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the given valueType is not a value interface

ImplGenerationFailedException - if generation of a native implementation failed

heapClassFor

public static <T> Class<T> heapClassFor(Class<T> valueType)

Generates (if not yet) and returns a heap implementation for the given value interface.

Type Parameters:

T - the value interface as a type parameter

Parameters:

valueType - the value interface to return a heap implementation for

Returns:

a heap implementation class for the given value interface

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the given valueType is not a value interface

ImplGenerationFailedException - if generation of a heap implementation failed

nativeClassFor

public static <T> Class<T> nativeClassFor(Class<T> valueType)

Generates (if not yet) and returns a native (flyweight) implementation for the given value interface.

Type Parameters:

T - the value interface as a type parameter

Parameters:

valueType - the value interface to return a native implementation for

Returns:

a native (flyweight) implementation class for the given value interface

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the given valueType is not a value interface

ImplGenerationFailedException - if generation of a native implementation failed
