org.picocontainer.parameters
Class ConstantParameter

java.lang.Object
  org.picocontainer.parameters.AbstractParameter
      org.picocontainer.parameters.ConstantParameter

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Parameter

public class ConstantParameter
extends AbstractParameter
implements Parameter, Serializable

A ConstantParameter should be used to pass in "constant" arguments to constructors. This includes Strings,Integers or any other object that is not registered in the container.

Description copied from interface: Parameter

Check if the Parameter can satisfy the expected type using the container.

Specified by:

resolve in interface Parameter

Parameters:

container - the container from which dependencies are resolved.

forAdapter - the ComponentAdapter that is asking for the instance

injecteeAdapter - the adapter to be injected into (null for N/A)

expectedType - the required type

expectedNameBinding - Expected parameter name

useNames - should use parameter names for disambiguation

binding - @return true if the component parameter can be resolved.

verify

public void verify(PicoContainer container,
                   ComponentAdapter<?> adapter,
                   Type expectedType,
                   NameBinding expectedNameBinding,
                   boolean useNames,
                   Annotation binding)
            throws PicoException

Verify that the Parameter can satisfy the expected type using the container

Specified by:

verify in interface Parameter

Parameters:

container - the container from which dependencies are resolved.

adapter - the ComponentAdapter that is asking for the verification

expectedType - the required type

expectedNameBinding - Expected parameter name

Throws:

PicoCompositionException - if parameter and its dependencies cannot be resolved

PicoException

protected boolean isAssignable(Type expectedType)

accept

public void accept(PicoVisitor visitor)

Visit the current Parameter.

Specified by:

accept in interface Parameter

Parameters:

visitor - the visitor.
