All Implemented Interfaces:

INodeContextFactory, java.io.Serializable

public class DefaultNodeContextFactory

extends java.lang.Object

implements INodeContextFactory

Default context for creation of a single INode instance, or a graph of INode instances.

INodeContextFactory implementors can use this factory to control creational behavior and patterns for INode instances. It allows the program to specifiy the semantics used when creating a graph of INode instances, or a single INode instance. It allows a one-step indirection for INode creation beyond the NodeFactory.

This concrete implementation of the INodeContextFactory interface delegates all requests for creation of INode instances to the NodeFactory.

Method Detail

getGraph

public INode getGraph()

Returns a graph of newly created INode instances.

This implementation returns a single INode instance returned from a call to NodeFactory.createNode().

Specified by:

getGraph in interface INodeContextFactory

getSingleNode

public INode getSingleNode()

Returns a newly created INode instance.

Implementors can use this method to allow single INode instances to be added to a graph that follow the semantics of the INode instances created via the getGraph method.

This implementation returns a single INode instance returned from a call to NodeFactory.createNode().

Specified by:

getSingleNode in interface INodeContextFactory
