ImmutableFormatOperator.Builder (dialob-compiler 3.0.2 API)

java.lang.Object
- io.dialob.program.expr.arith.ImmutableFormatOperator.Builder

Enclosing class:

ImmutableFormatOperator
```
@NotThreadSafe
public static final class ImmutableFormatOperator.Builder
extends Object
```
Builds instances of type ImmutableFormatOperator. Initialize attributes and then invoke the build() method to create an immutable instance.
Builder is not thread-safe and generally should not be stored in a field or collection, but instead used immediately to create instances.
