Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
boolean	add(CompositeSet<E> composite, List<Set<E>> sets, E obj)	Called when an object is to be added to the composite.

Method Details

add

boolean add(CompositeSet<E> composite,
 List<Set<E>> sets,
 E obj)

Called when an object is to be added to the composite.

Parameters:

composite - the CompositeSet being changed

sets - all of the Set instances in this CompositeSet

obj - the object being added

Returns:

true if the collection is changed

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - if add is unsupported

ClassCastException - if the object cannot be added due to its type

NullPointerException - if the object cannot be added because its null

IllegalArgumentException - if the object cannot be added

addAll

boolean addAll(CompositeSet<E> composite,
 List<Set<E>> sets,
 Collection<? extends E> coll)

Called when a collection is to be added to the composite.

Parameters:

composite - the CompositeSet being changed

sets - all of the Set instances in this CompositeSet

coll - the collection being added

Returns:

true if the collection is changed

Throws:

UnsupportedOperationException - if add is unsupported

ClassCastException - if the object cannot be added due to its type

NullPointerException - if the object cannot be added because its null

IllegalArgumentException - if the object cannot be added

resolveCollision

void resolveCollision(CompositeSet<E> comp,
 Set<E> existing,
 Set<E> added,
 Collection<E> intersects)

Called when a Set is added to the CompositeSet and there is a collision between existing and added sets.

If added and existing still have any intersects after this method returns an IllegalArgumentException will be thrown.

Parameters:

comp - the CompositeSet being modified

existing - the Set already existing in the composite

added - the Set being added to the composite

intersects - the intersection of the existing and added sets
