public AbstractDelegatingPicoContainer(PicoContainer delegate)

Method Detail

accept

public final void accept(PicoVisitor visitor)

Description copied from interface: PicoContainer

Accepts a visitor that should visit the child containers, component adapters and component instances.

Specified by:

accept in interface PicoContainer

Parameters:

visitor - the visitor

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Overrides:

equals in class Object

getComponent

public <T> T getComponent(Class<T> componentType)

Description copied from interface: PicoContainer

Retrieve a component keyed by the component type.

Specified by:

getComponent in interface PicoContainer

Type Parameters:

T - the type of the component.

Parameters:

componentType - the type of the component

Returns:

the typed resulting object instance or null if the object does not exist.

getComponent

public <T> T getComponent(Class<T> componentType,
                          Class<? extends Annotation> binding)

Specified by:

getComponent in interface PicoContainer

getComponent

public Object getComponent(Object componentKeyOrType)

Description copied from interface: PicoContainer

Retrieve a component instance registered with a specific key or type. If a component cannot be found in this container, the parent container (if one exists) will be searched.

Specified by:

getComponent in interface PicoContainer

Parameters:

componentKeyOrType - the key or Type that the component was registered with.

Returns:

an instantiated component, or null if no component has been registered for the specified key.

getComponent

public Object getComponent(Object componentKeyOrType,
                           Type into)

Specified by:

getComponent in interface PicoContainer

getComponentAdapter

public <T> ComponentAdapter<T> getComponentAdapter(Class<T> componentType,
                                                   NameBinding componentNameBinding)

Description copied from interface: PicoContainer

Find a component adapter associated with the specified type. If a component adapter cannot be found in this container, the parent container (if one exists) will be searched.

Specified by:

getComponentAdapter in interface PicoContainer

Parameters:

componentType - the type of the component.

Returns:

the component adapter associated with this class, or null if no component has been registered for the specified key.

getComponentAdapter

public <T> ComponentAdapter<T> getComponentAdapter(Class<T> componentType,
                                                   Class<? extends Annotation> binding)

Specified by:

getComponentAdapter in interface PicoContainer

getComponentAdapter

public ComponentAdapter<?> getComponentAdapter(Object componentKey)

Description copied from interface: PicoContainer

Find a component adapter associated with the specified key. If a component adapter cannot be found in this container, the parent container (if one exists) will be searched.

Specified by:

getComponentAdapter in interface PicoContainer

Parameters:

componentKey - the key that the component was registered with.

Returns:

the component adapter associated with this key, or null if no component has been registered for the specified key.

getComponentAdapters

public Collection<ComponentAdapter<?>> getComponentAdapters()

Description copied from interface: PicoContainer

Retrieve all the component adapters inside this container. The component adapters from the parent container are not returned.

Specified by:

getComponentAdapters in interface PicoContainer

Returns:

a collection containing all the ComponentAdapters inside this container. The collection will not be modifiable.

See Also:

a variant of this method which returns the component adapters inside this container that are associated with the specified type.

getComponentAdapters

public <T> List<ComponentAdapter<T>> getComponentAdapters(Class<T> componentType)

Description copied from interface: PicoContainer

Retrieve all component adapters inside this container that are associated with the specified type. The addComponent adapters from the parent container are not returned.

Specified by:

getComponentAdapters in interface PicoContainer

Parameters:

componentType - the type of the components.

Returns:

a collection containing all the ComponentAdapters inside this container that are associated with the specified type. Changes to this collection will not be reflected in the container itself.

getComponentAdapters

public <T> List<ComponentAdapter<T>> getComponentAdapters(Class<T> componentType,
                                                          Class<? extends Annotation> binding)

Specified by:

getComponentAdapters in interface PicoContainer

getComponents

public List<Object> getComponents()

Description copied from interface: PicoContainer

Retrieve all the registered component instances in the container, (not including those in the parent container). The components are returned in their order of instantiation, which depends on the dependency order between them.
