Method Detail

isBound

boolean isBound(Class<?> clazz)

Check if a given class is bound to a AbstractPluginObject.

Parameters:

clazz - The object type.

Returns:

true, of bound, false, otherwise.

bind

void bind(AbstractPluginObject input)

Bind a object plugin to the manager.

Parameters:

input - The object plugin.

all

<T> List<T> all(Class<T> clazz)
            throws PluginException

Lookup for a object of a given type, with the given key.

Parameters:

clazz - The object type.

Returns:

All handled objects, if exists, null, otherwise.

Throws:

PluginException - On lookup errors.

select

<T> List<T> select(Class<T> clazz,
                 IPredicate<T> filter)
               throws PluginException

Lookup for a object of a given type, filtered by a predicate.

Parameters:

clazz - The object type.

filter - The filter predicate.

Returns:

All filtered objects, if exists, null, otherwise.

Throws:

PluginException - On lookup errors.

get

<T> T get(Class<T> clazz,
        String key)
      throws PluginException

Lookup for a object of a given type, with the given key.

Parameters:

clazz - The object type.

key - The object key.

Returns:

The object if exists,null, otherwise.

Throws:

PluginException - On lookup errors.

get

<T> T get(Class<T> clazz,
        IPredicate<T> filter)
      throws PluginException

Lookup for a object of a given type, with the given filter. Avoid filters on keys, since they can be virtual.

Parameters:

clazz - The object type.

filter - The filter predicate.

Returns:

The object if exists, null, otherwise.

Throws:

PluginException - On lookup errors, i.e. more than 1 element returned by filter.

getEntities

Map<Class<?>,AbstractPluginObject> getEntities()

The mapping of all entities.

Returns:

The entity mapping.

clear

void clear()

Clear all object mappings.
