Method Detail

valueOf

public T valueOf(java.lang.Class<?> firstNameComponent,
                 java.lang.String secondNameComponent)

Shortcut of valueOf(firstNameComponent.getName() + "#" + secondNameComponent).

valueOf

public T valueOf(java.lang.String name)

Returns the Constant which is assigned to the specified name. If there's no such Constant, a new one will be created and returned. Once created, the subsequent calls with the same name will always return the previously created one (i.e. singleton.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the Constant

getOrCreate

private T getOrCreate(java.lang.String name)

Get existing constant by name or creates new one if not exists. Threadsafe

Parameters:

name - the name of the Constant

exists

public boolean exists(java.lang.String name)

Returns true if a AttributeKey exists for the given name.

newInstance

public T newInstance(java.lang.String name)

Creates a new Constant for the given name or fail with an IllegalArgumentException if a Constant for the given name exists.

createOrThrow

private T createOrThrow(java.lang.String name)

Creates constant by name or throws exception. Threadsafe

Parameters:

name - the name of the Constant

newConstant

protected abstract T newConstant(int id,
                                 java.lang.String name)

nextId

@Deprecated
public final int nextId()

Deprecated.
