    • SetProperty

      public SetProperty()
  • Method Details

    • getSet

      public Set<E> getSet(S source)
      By default, this method returns Collections.EMPTY_SET in case the source object is null. Otherwise, this method delegates to doGetSet(Object).

      Clients may override this method if they e.g. want to return a specific default set in case the source object is null.

      Specified by:
      getSet in interface ISetProperty<S,E>
      Parameters:
      source - the property source (may be null)
      Returns:
      an unmodifiable Set with the current contents of the source's set property
      Since:
      1.3
      See Also:
    • doGetSet

      protected Set<E> doGetSet(S source)
      Returns a Set with the current contents of the source's set property
      Parameters:
      source - the property source
      Returns:
      a Set with the current contents of the source's set property
      Since:
      1.6
      Restriction:
      This method is not intended to be referenced by clients.
    • setSet

      public final void setSet(S source, Set<E> set)
      Description copied from interface: ISetProperty
      Updates the property on the source with the specified change.

      Note: This method is made available to facilitate basic property access. However if the property source lacks property change notification, then observables on the source object may not be notified of the change. In most cases it is preferable to modify the source through an IObservableSet than through the property directly.

      Specified by:
      setSet in interface ISetProperty<S,E>
      Parameters:
      source - the property source (may be null)
      set - the new set
      Since:
      1.3
    • doSetSet

      protected void doSetSet(S source, Set<E> set)
      Updates the property on the source with the specified change.
      Parameters:
      source - the property source
      set - the new set
      Since:
      1.6
      Restriction:
      This method is not intended to be referenced by clients.
    • updateSet

      public final void updateSet(S source, SetDiff<E> diff)
      Description copied from interface: ISetProperty
      Updates the property on the source with the specified change.

      Note: This method is made available to facilitate basic property access. However if the property source lacks property change notification, then observables on the source object may not be notified of the change. In most cases it is preferable to modify the source through an IObservableSet than through the property directly.

      Specified by:
      updateSet in interface ISetProperty<S,E>
      Parameters:
      source - the property source (may be null)
      diff - a diff describing the change
      Since:
      1.3
    • doUpdateSet

      protected void doUpdateSet(S source, SetDiff<E> diff)
      Updates the property on the source with the specified change.
      Parameters:
      source - the property source
      diff - a diff describing the change
      Since:
      1.6
      Restriction:
      This method is not intended to be referenced by clients.
    • observe

      public IObservableSet<E> observe(S source)
      Description copied from interface: ISetProperty
      Returns an observable set observing this set property on the given property source
      Specified by:
      observe in interface ISetProperty<S,E>
      Parameters:
      source - the property source
      Returns:
      an observable set observing this set property on the given property source
    • setFactory

      public IObservableFactory<S,IObservableSet<E>> setFactory()
      Description copied from interface: ISetProperty
      Returns a factory for creating observable sets tracking this property of a particular property source.
      Specified by:
      setFactory in interface ISetProperty<S,E>
      Returns:
      a factory for creating observable sets tracking this property of a particular property source.
    • setFactory

      public IObservableFactory<S,IObservableSet<E>> setFactory(Realm realm)
      Description copied from interface: ISetProperty
      Returns a factory for creating observable sets in the given realm, tracking this property of a particular property source.
      Specified by:
      setFactory in interface ISetProperty<S,E>
      Parameters:
      realm - the realm
      Returns:
      a factory for creating observable sets in the given realm, tracking this property of a particular property source.
    • observeDetail

      public <U extends S> IObservableSet<E> observeDetail(IObservableValue<U> master)
      Description copied from interface: ISetProperty
      Returns an observable set on the master observable's realm which tracks this property of the current value of master.
      Specified by:
      observeDetail in interface ISetProperty<S,E>
      Parameters:
      master - the master observable
      Returns:
      an observable set on the given realm which tracks this property of the current value of master.
    • values

      public final <T> IMapProperty<S,E,T> values(IValueProperty<? super E,T> detailValues)
      Description copied from interface: ISetProperty
      Returns the nested combination of this property and the specified detail value property. Note that because this property is a projection of value properties over a set, the only modifications supported are through the IObservableMap.put(Object, Object) and Map.putAll(java.util.Map) methods. In the latter case, this property does not put entries for keys not already in the master key set. Modifications made through the returned property are delegated to the detail property, using the corresponding set element from the master property as the source.
      Specified by:
      values in interface ISetProperty<S,E>
      Parameters:
      detailValues - the detail property
      Returns:
      the nested combination of the master set and detail value properties
