/**
* DOCUMENTATION FROM APACHE AVALON DELEGATE CLASS
*
*
* Delegates are a typesafe pointer to another method. Since Java does not
* have language support for such a construct, this utility will construct
* a proxy that forwards method calls to any method with the same signature.
* This utility is inspired in part by the C# delegate mechanism. We
* implemented it in a Java-centric manner.
*
*
* Delegate
*
* Any interface with one method can become the interface for a delegate.
* Consider the example below:
*
*
*
* public interface MainDelegate {
* int main(String[] args);
* }
*
*
*
* The interface above is an example of an interface that can become a
* delegate. It has only one method, and the interface is public. In
* order to create a delegate for that method, all we have to do is
* call MethodDelegate.create(this, "alternateMain", MainDelegate.class)
.
* The following program will show how to use it:
*
*
*
* public class Main {
* public static int main( String[] args ) {
* Main newMain = new Main();
* MainDelegate start = (MainDelegate)
* MethodDelegate.create(newMain, "alternateMain", MainDelegate.class);
* return start.main( args );
* }
*
* public int alternateMain( String[] args ) {
* for (int i = 0; i < args.length; i++) {
* System.out.println( args[i] );
* }
* return args.length;
* }
* }
*
*
*
* By themselves, delegates don't do much. Their true power lies in the fact that
* they can be treated like objects, and passed to other methods. In fact that is
* one of the key building blocks of building Intelligent Agents which in tern are
* the foundation of artificial intelligence. In the above program, we could have
* easily created the delegate to match the static main
method by
* substituting the delegate creation call with this:
* MethodDelegate.createStatic(getClass(), "main", MainDelegate.class)
.
*
*
* Another key use for Delegates is to register event listeners. It is much easier
* to have all the code for your events separated out into methods instead of individual
* classes. One of the ways Java gets around that is to create anonymous classes.
* They are particularly troublesome because many Debuggers do not know what to do
* with them. Anonymous classes tend to duplicate alot of code as well. We can
* use any interface with one declared method to forward events to any method that
* matches the signature (although the method name can be different).
*
*
* Equality
* The criteria that we use to test if two delegates are equal are:
*
* -
* They both refer to the same instance. That is, the
instance
* parameter passed to the newDelegate method was the same for both. The
* instances are compared with the identity equality operator, ==
.
*
* - They refer to the same method as resolved by
Method.equals
.
*
