public class FactoryUtils extends Object
FactoryUtils
provides reference implementations and utilities
for the Factory functor interface. The supplied factories are:
Constructor and Description |
---|
FactoryUtils()
This class is not normally instantiated.

Modifier and Type | Method and Description |
---|---|
static Factory |
constantFactory(Object constantToReturn)
Creates a Factory that will return the same object each time the factory
is used.
|
static Factory |
exceptionFactory()
Gets a Factory that always throws an exception.
|
static Factory |
instantiateFactory(Class classToInstantiate)
Creates a Factory that can create objects of a specific type using
a no-args constructor.
|
static Factory |
instantiateFactory(Class classToInstantiate,
Class[] paramTypes,
Object[] args)
Creates a Factory that can create objects of a specific type using
the arguments specified to this method.
|
static Factory |
nullFactory()
Gets a Factory that will return null each time the factory is used.
|
static Factory |
prototypeFactory(Object prototype)
Creates a Factory that will return a clone of the same prototype object
each time the factory is used.
