Class CortexIntrospectorImpl

java.lang.Object
  atg.cortex.CortexIntrospectorImpl

All Implemented Interfaces:

CortexIntrospector

public class CortexIntrospectorImpl
extends java.lang.Object
implements CortexIntrospector

This class is an implementation of CortexIntrospector that uses the following rules to resolve classes to Cortex objects. The rules are based on those used by java.beans.Introspector.

• If the cache internal to this implementation already has a mapping from that class to a Cortex object, that Cortex object is returned.
• If the class implements CortexFactory, then a new instance of the class is created, and createCortex() is called to obtain the Cortex.
• If a class exists with the name {classname}Cortex and is a subclass of Cortex, then an instance of that class constructed and returned. For example, if the class is "site.data.Person", then this will search for a class called "site.data.PersonCortex".

Constructs and returns a new CortexIntrospectorImpl

Method Detail

getCache

public java.util.Dictionary getCache()

Returns the cache mapping Class to Cortex

addToCache

protected void addToCache(java.lang.Class pClass,
                          Cortex pCortex)

Adds the specified mapping from class to Cortex, replacing any existing mapping for that class. Subclasses that implement their own methods for finding Cortex objects can use this to cache their results.

getCortex

public Cortex getCortex(java.lang.Class pClass)

Returns the Cortex associated with the given class.

Specified by:

getCortex in interface CortexIntrospector

Parameters:

pClass - the class for which a Cortex is to be found

Returns:

the Cortex corresponding to the given class

registerCortex

public void registerCortex(java.lang.Class pClass,
                           Cortex pCortex)

Registers the specified Cortex for the specified class.

Specified by:

registerCortex in interface CortexIntrospector

Parameters:

pClass - the Class with which the specified cortex is to be associated.

pCortex - the Cortex to be associated with the specified class
