Interface Presenter<C extends Container,ActivityComponent>

Type Parameters:

C - The Container instance this Presenter controls.

ActivityComponent - The ActivityComponent.

public interface Presenter<C extends Container,ActivityComponent>

The Presenter class in the MVP context. In the Model-View-Presenter pattern, the Presenter retrieves data from the Model, and formats it so the View (Container) can present it. The lifecycle of a Presenter consists of two methods:

acquire(Container, Object) releaseContainer(Container)

Control over the Container instance starts at acquire(Container, Object), and ends at releaseContainer(Container). There are no guarantees on the order of calls to these two methods. Presenters survive configuration changes, making it easy to manage data and asynchronous calls.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	acquire(C container, ActivityComponent activityComponent) Binds the Container this BasePresenter controls.
void	releaseContainer(C container) Tells this Presenter to release the Container instance.

                                  C container)
