  • Method Details

    • getXMLOrder

      public int getXMLOrder()
      Description copied from interface: Manager
      Determine the order that types should be written when storing panel files. Uses one of the constants defined in this class.

      Yes, that's an overly-centralized methodology, but it works for now.

      Specified by:
      getXMLOrder in interface Manager<StringIO>
      Returns:
      write order for this Manager; larger is later.
    • makeInternalManager

      Description copied from class: AbstractProxyManager
      Create specific internal manager as needed for concrete type.
      Specified by:
      makeInternalManager in class AbstractProxyManager<StringIO>
      Returns:
      an internal manager
    • makeBean

      @Nonnull protected StringIO makeBean(Manager<StringIO> manager, String systemName, String userName) throws IllegalArgumentException
      Defer creation of the proper type to the subclass.
      Specified by:
      makeBean in class AbstractProvidingProxyManager<StringIO>
      Parameters:
      manager - the manager to invoke
      systemName - the system name
      userName - the user name
      Returns:
      a bean
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if unable to make.
    • getStringIO

      Get an existing StringIO or return null if it doesn't exist. Locates via user name, then system name if needed.
      Specified by:
      getStringIO in interface StringIOManager
      Parameters:
      name - User name or system name to match
      Returns:
      null if no match found
    • newStringIO

      Return a StringIO with the specified user or system name. Return StringIO by UserName else provide by SystemName.

      Note that two calls with the same arguments will get the same instance; there is only one StringIO object with a specific system or user name.

      This will always return a valid object reference; a new object will be created if necessary. If that's not possible, an IllegalArgumentException is thrown.

      If a new object has to be created:

      • If a null reference is given for user name, no user name will be associated with the Sensor object created; a valid system name must be provided
      • If both names are provided, the system name defines the hardware access of the desired sensor, and the user address is associated with it. The system name must be valid.
      Note that it is possible to make an inconsistent request if both addresses are provided, but the given values are associated with different objects. This is a problem, and we don't have a good solution except to issue warnings. This will mostly happen if you're creating StringIOs when you should be looking them up.
      Specified by:
      newStringIO in interface StringIOManager
      Parameters:
      systemName - the desired system name
      userName - the desired user name
      Returns:
      requested StringIO object
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if cannot create the StringIO due to e.g. an illegal name or name that can't be parsed.
    • getBeanTypeHandled

      @Nonnull public String getBeanTypeHandled(boolean plural)
      Description copied from interface: Manager
      Get the user-readable name of the type of NamedBean handled by this manager.

      For instance, in the code where we are dealing with just a bean and a message that needs to be passed to the user or in a log.

      Specified by:
      getBeanTypeHandled in interface Manager<StringIO>
      Parameters:
      plural - true to return plural form of the type; false to return singular form
      Returns:
      a string of the bean type that the manager handles, eg Turnout, Sensor etc
    • provideStringIO

      Specified by:
      provideStringIO in interface StringIOManager
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException
    • provide

      Get an existing instance via user name, then system name; if no matching instance is found, create a new NameBean from the system name.

      If the name is a valid system name, it will be used for the new NamedBean. Otherwise, the Manager.makeSystemName(java.lang.String) method will attempt to turn it into a valid system name which the manager will attempt to use. If that fails, an exception is thrown.

      This is similar to the specific methods found in certain type-specific managers: TurnoutManager.provideTurnout(java.lang.String), SensorManager.provideSensor(java.lang.String), et al. Those might be more mnemonic; this one is more generic. Neither is preferred nor deprecated; use your choice.

      Specified by:
      provide in interface ProvidingManager<StringIO>
      Specified by:
      provide in interface StringIOManager
      Parameters:
      name - User name, system name, or address which can be promoted to system name
      Returns:
      Never null
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if NamedBean doesn't already exist and the manager cannot create it due to an illegal name or name that can't be parsed.
    • getNamedBeanClass

      Get the class of NamedBean supported by this Manager. This should be the generic class used in the Manager's class declaration.
      Specified by:
      getNamedBeanClass in interface Manager<StringIO>
      Returns:
      the class supported by this Manager.
