This artifact provides a single jar that contains all classes required to use remote EJB and JMS, including all dependencies. It is intended for use by those not using maven, maven users should just import the EJB and JMS BOM's instead (shaded JAR's cause lots of problems with maven, as it is very easy to inadvertently end up with different versions on classes on the class path).

There is a newer version: 34.0.0.Final

/**
 * 

Lazy DynaBean List.

* *

There are two main purposes for this class:

*
    *
  • To provide Lazy List behaviour - automatically * growing and populating the List * with either DynaBean, java.util.Map * or POJO Beans.
  • *
  • To provide a straight forward way of putting a Collection * or Array into the lazy list and a straight forward * way to get it out again at the end.
  • *
* *

All elements added to the List are stored as DynaBean's:

*
    *
  • java.util.Map elements are "wrapped" in a LazyDynaMap. *
  • POJO Bean elements are "wrapped" in a WrapDynaBean. *
  • DynaBean's are stored un-changed. *
* *

toArray()

*

The toArray() method returns an array of the * elements of the appropriate type. If the LazyDynaList * is populated with java.util.Map objects a * Map[] array is returned. * If the list is populated with POJO Beans an appropriate * array of the POJO Beans is returned. Otherwise a DynaBean[] * array is returned. *

* *

toDynaBeanArray()

*

The toDynaBeanArray() method returns a * DynaBean[] array of the elements in the List. *

* *

N.B.All the elements in the List must be the * same type. If the DynaClass or Class * of the LazyDynaList's elements is * not specified, then it will be automatically set to the type * of the first element populated. *

* *

Example 1

*

If you have an array of java.util.Map[] - you can put that into * a LazyDynaList.

* *

 *    TreeMap[] myArray = .... // your Map[]
 *    List lazyList = new LazyDynaList(myArray);
 * 
* *

New elements of the appropriate Map type are * automatically populated:

* *

 *    // get(index) automatically grows the list
 *    DynaBean newElement = (DynaBean)lazyList.get(lazyList.size());
 *    newElement.put("someProperty", "someValue");
 * 
* *

Once you've finished you can get back an Array of the * elements of the appropriate type:

* *

 *    // Retrieve the array from the list
 *    TreeMap[] myArray = (TreeMap[])lazyList.toArray());
 * 
* * *

Example 2

*

Alternatively you can create an empty List and * specify the Class for List's elements. The LazyDynaList * uses the Class to automatically populate elements:

* *

 *    // e.g. For Maps
 *    List lazyList = new LazyDynaList(TreeMap.class);
 *
 *    // e.g. For POJO Beans
 *    List lazyList = new LazyDynaList(MyPojo.class);
 *
 *    // e.g. For DynaBeans
 *    List lazyList = new LazyDynaList(MyDynaBean.class);
 * 
* *

Example 3

*

Alternatively you can create an empty List and specify the * DynaClass for List's elements. The LazyDynaList uses * the DynaClass to automatically populate elements:

* *

 *    // e.g. For Maps
 *    DynaClass dynaClass = new LazyDynaMap(new HashMap());
 *    List lazyList = new LazyDynaList(dynaClass);
 *
 *    // e.g. For POJO Beans
 *    DynaClass dynaClass = (new WrapDynaBean(myPojo)).getDynaClass();
 *    List lazyList = new LazyDynaList(dynaClass);
 *
 *    // e.g. For DynaBeans
 *    DynaClass dynaClass = new BasicDynaClass(properties);
 *    List lazyList = new LazyDynaList(dynaClass);
 * 
* *

N.B. You may wonder why control the type * using a DynaClass rather than the Class * as in the previous example - the reason is that some DynaBean * implementations don't have a default empty constructor and * therefore need to be instantiated using the DynaClass.newInstance() * method.

* *

Example 4

*

A slight variation - set the element type using either * the setElementType(Class) method or the * setElementDynaClass(DynaClass) method - then populate * with the normal java.util.List methods(i.e. * add(), addAll() or set()).

* *

 *    // Create a new LazyDynaList (100 element capacity)
 *    LazyDynaList lazyList = new LazyDynaList(100);
 *
 *    // Either Set the element type...
 *    lazyList.setElementType(TreeMap.class);
 *
 *    // ...or the element DynaClass...
 *    lazyList.setElementDynaClass(new MyCustomDynaClass());
 *
 *    // Populate from a collection
 *    lazyList.addAll(myCollection);
