public class AdfObject
extends Object

Base class of all ADF Objects.

To create a subclass of another AdfObject, use AdfObject.createSubclass. The subclass can specify class-level initialization by implementing an InitClass() method on its constructor. InitClass is guaranteed to be called only once per class. Further, a class' InitClass method is guranteed to be called only after its superclass' class initialization has been called. When InitClass is called, this is the class' constructor. This allows class initialization implementations to be shared in some cases.

Field Detail

constructor

public Object constructor

The function that created the object.

Overrides:

Object.constructor

_GET_FUNCTION_NAME_REGEXP

private static Object _GET_FUNCTION_NAME_REGEXP

superclass

public static Object superclass

Constructor Detail

AdfObject

public AdfObject()

Base class of all ADF Objects.

To create a subclass of another AdfObject, use AdfObject.createSubclass. The subclass can specify class-level initialization by implementing an InitClass() method on its constructor. InitClass is guaranteed to be called only once per class. Further, a class' InitClass method is guranteed to be called only after its superclass' class initialization has been called. When InitClass is called, this is the class' constructor. This allows class initialization implementations to be shared in some cases.

Method Detail

adopt

public Object adopt(Object theRawObject)

Adopt the properties of another object as our own

Parameters:

theRawObject

Return:

Object

_applyFunctionProperties

private static Object _applyFunctionProperties(Object target,
Object className)

Apply class and function name properties to the functions of an Object. This is used to set up the functions so that we can get accurate stack traces.

Parameters:

target
className

Return:

Object

clone

public Object clone()

Returns a clone of this object. The default implementation is a shallow copy. Subclassers can override this method to implement a deep copy.

Return:

Object

createCallback

public Object createCallback(Object func)

Creates a function instance that will callback the passed in function with the current "this". This is extremely useful for creating callbacks

Parameters:

func

Return:

Object

createInitializedObject

public static Object createInitializedObject()

Convenience function for creating an Object initialized with key values pairs as alternating parameters. All off the even parameters must be keys represented as Strings, with the odd parameters, their values.

Return:

Object

createSubclass

public static Object createSubclass(Object extendingClass,
Object baseClass,
Object typeName)

Creates a subclass of a baseClass

Parameters:

extendingClass
baseClass
typeName

Return:

Object

ensureClassInitialization

public static Object ensureClassInitialization(Function clazz)

Ensures that a class is initialized. Although class initialization occurs by default the first time that an instance of a class is created, classes that use static factory methods to create their instances (e.g. AdfKeyStroke) may still need to ensure that their class has been initialized when the factory method is called.

Parameters:

clazz

-

The class to ensure initialization of

Return:

Object

equals

public Object equals(Object object)

Indicates whether some other AdfObject is "equal to" this one. Method is equivalent to java ".equals()" method.

Parameters:

object

Return:

Object

getClass

public Object getClass(Object otherInstance)

Parameters:

otherInstance

Return:

Object

GetLazyArrayProperty

protected Object GetLazyArrayProperty(Object propName,
Object createIfNonexistent,
Object otherInstance)

Returns the specified array property. If createIfNonexistent is true and the property doesn't exist, it will be created, and returned.

Parameters:

propName
createIfNonexistent
otherInstance

Return:

Object

GetLazyMapProperty

protected Object GetLazyMapProperty(Object propName,
Object createIfNonexistent,
Object otherInstance)

Returns the specified Map property. If createIfNonexistent is true and the property doesn't exist, an empty Object will be created, and returned.

Parameters:

propName
createIfNonexistent
otherInstance

Return:

Object

getTypeName

public String getTypeName()

Returns the type name for this instance

Return:

String - name of the Class

getTypeName

public static String getTypeName(Object clazz)

Returns the type name for a class derived from AdfObject

Parameters:

clazz

Return:

String - name of the Class

Init

protected Object Init()

Initializes the instance. Subclasses of AdfObject must call their superclass' Init

Return:

Object

_initClasses

private static Object _initClasses(Object currClass)

Perform any class-level initializtion. Uninitialize superclasses will be initialized before their subclasses

Parameters:

currClass

Return:

Object

_tempSubclassConstructor

private static Object _tempSubclassConstructor()

Temporary constructor used to assign the correct prototype to subclasses

Return:

Object

toDebugString

public Object toDebugString()

Return:

Object

toString

public Object toString()

Return:

Object
