Class BaseAdditiveAttributeMerger

java.lang.Object
  org.jasig.services.persondir.support.merger.BaseAdditiveAttributeMerger

All Implemented Interfaces:

IAttributeMerger

Direct Known Subclasses:

MultivaluedAttributeMerger, NoncollidingAttributeAdder, ReplacingAttributeAdder

public abstract class BaseAdditiveAttributeMerger
extends Object
implements IAttributeMerger

Merges the Sets of IPersons additively calling the abstract mergePersonAttributes(Map, Map) method on the attributes of IPersons that exist in both sets. The mergeAvailableQueryAttributes(Set, Set) and mergePossibleUserAttributeNames(Set, Set) methods do a simple addative merge of the sets. These can be overriden by subclasses.

Method Detail

mergeAvailableQueryAttributes

public Set<String> mergeAvailableQueryAttributes(Set<String> toModify,
                                                 Set<String> toConsider)

Description copied from interface: IAttributeMerger

Modify the "toModify" argument in consideration of the "toConsider" argument. Return the resulting Set which may or may not be the same reference as the "toModify" argument. The modification performed is implementation-specific -- implementations of this interface exist to perform some particular transformation on the toModify argument given the toConsider argument.

Specified by:

mergeAvailableQueryAttributes in interface IAttributeMerger

Parameters:

toModify - Modify this set

toConsider - In consideration of this set

Returns:

The modified set

mergePossibleUserAttributeNames

public Set<String> mergePossibleUserAttributeNames(Set<String> toModify,
                                                   Set<String> toConsider)

Description copied from interface: IAttributeMerger

Modify the "toModify" argument in consideration of the "toConsider" argument. Return the resulting Set which may or may not be the same reference as the "toModify" argument. The modification performed is implementation-specific -- implementations of this interface exist to perform some particular transformation on the toModify argument given the toConsider argument.

Specified by:

mergePossibleUserAttributeNames in interface IAttributeMerger

Parameters:

toModify - Modify this set

toConsider - In consideration of this set

Returns:

The modified set

mergeResults

public final Set<IPersonAttributes> mergeResults(Set<IPersonAttributes> toModify,
                                                 Set<IPersonAttributes> toConsider)

Description copied from interface: IAttributeMerger

Merge the results of a search.IPersonLookupDao call and a compiled results map.

Specified by:

mergeResults in interface IAttributeMerger

Parameters:

toModify - The compiled results map, this will be modified based on the values in toConsider.

toConsider - The query results map, this will not be modified.

buildMutableAttributeMap

protected Map<String,List<Object>> buildMutableAttributeMap(Map<String,List<Object>> attributes)

Do a deep clone of an attribute Map to ensure it is completley mutable.

createMutableAttributeMap

protected Map<String,List<Object>> createMutableAttributeMap(int size)

Create the Map used when merging attributes

mergePersonAttributes

protected abstract Map<String,List<Object>> mergePersonAttributes(Map<String,List<Object>> toModify,
                                                                  Map<String,List<Object>> toConsider)

Modify the "toModify" argument in consideration of the "toConsider" argument. Return the resulting Map, which may or may not be the same reference as the "toModify" argument. The modification performed is implementation-specific -- implementations of this interface exist to perform some particular transformation on the toModify argument given the toConsider argument.

Parameters:

toModify - - modify this map

toConsider - - in consideration of this map

Returns:

the modified Map

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if either toModify or toConsider is null

mergeAttributes

public Map<String,List<Object>> mergeAttributes(Map<String,List<Object>> toModify,
                                                Map<String,List<Object>> toConsider)

Description copied from interface: IAttributeMerger

Modify the "toModify" argument in consideration of the "toConsider" argument. Return the resulting Map, which may or may not be the same reference as the "toModify" argument. The modification performed is implementation-specific -- implementations of this interface exist to perform some particular transformation on the toModify argument given the toConsider argument.

Specified by:

mergeAttributes in interface IAttributeMerger

Parameters:

toModify - - modify this map

toConsider - - in consideration of this map

Returns:

the modified Map
