Interface ObjectBuilder<T>

All Known Implementing Classes:

ConfigurationObjectBuilder, DefaultObjectBuilder

public interface ObjectBuilder<T>

A builder capable of creating instances of a given Class, populating its attributes based on a list of ValueResolvers.

The built object's class must comply with the following requirements:

• It must be a concrete class
• It must have a public, default constructor
• It must have a standard setter for each property that this builder will be populating

Instances of this class are to be considered thread safe and reusable since the build(MuleEvent) method can be invoked several times on the same instance. Each time build(MuleEvent) is invoked, the resolvers will be re evaluated with the given event.

Since:

3.7.0

Method Summary

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description

Method Detail

addPropertyResolver

ObjectBuilder<T> addPropertyResolver(Field field,
                                   ValueResolver<? extends Object> resolver)

Adds a property which value is to be obtained from a ValueResolver

Parameters:

field - the Field in which the value is to be assigned

resolver - a ValueResolver used to provide the actual value

Returns:

this builder

Throws:

{@link - java.lang.IllegalArgumentException} if method or resolver are null

isDynamic

boolean isDynamic()

Whether any of the registered ValueResolvers are dynamic

Returns:

true if at least one resolver is dynamic. false otherwise

build

T build(MuleEvent event)
        throws MuleException

Returns a new instance of the specified class. The given MuleEvent will be used to obtain a value from each registered ValueResolver

Parameters:

event - a MuleEvent

Returns:

a new instance

Throws:

{@link - MuleException}
