C# Class SimpleFramework.Xml.Core.MapFactory

The MapFactory is used to create map instances that are compatible with the field type. This performs resolution of the map class by consulting the specified Strategy implementation. If the strategy cannot resolve the map class then this will select a type from the Java Collections framework, if a compatible one exists.

Public Methods

Method	Description
GetConversion ( Class type ) : Class	This is used to convert the provided type to a map object type from the Java Collections framework. This will check to see if the type is a `Map` or `SortedMap` and return a `HashMap` or `TreeSet` type. If no suitable match can be found this throws an exception.
GetInstance ( InputNode node ) : Instance
GetInstance ( Value value ) : Instance	This creates a `Map` object instance from the type provided. If the type provided is abstract or an interface then this can promote the type to a map object type that can be instantiated. This is done by asking the type to convert itself.
MapFactory ( Context context, Type type ) : SimpleFramework.Xml.Strategy	Constructor for the `MapFactory` object. This is given the field type as taken from the owning object. The given type is used to determine the map instance created.

Method Details

GetConversion() public method

This is used to convert the provided type to a map object type from the Java Collections framework. This will check to see if the type is a Map or SortedMap and return a HashMap or TreeSet type. If no suitable match can be found this throws an exception.

public GetConversion ( Class type ) : Class
type	Class	/// this is the type that is to be converted ///
return	Class

GetInstance() public method

public GetInstance ( InputNode node ) : Instance
node	InputNode	/// this is the input node representing the list ///
return	Instance

GetInstance() public method

This creates a Map object instance from the type provided. If the type provided is abstract or an interface then this can promote the type to a map object type that can be instantiated. This is done by asking the type to convert itself.

public GetInstance ( Value value ) : Instance
value	Value	/// the type used to instantiate the map object ///
return	Instance

MapFactory() public method

Constructor for the MapFactory object. This is given the field type as taken from the owning object. The given type is used to determine the map instance created.

public MapFactory ( Context context, Type type ) : SimpleFramework.Xml.Strategy
context	Context	/// this is the context object for this factory ///
type	System.Type	/// this is the class for the owning object ///
return	SimpleFramework.Xml.Strategy
