Interface OperaArguments

All Superinterfaces:

Iterable<OperaArgument>

All Known Implementing Classes:

OperaArguments, OperaCoreArguments, OperaDesktopArguments

public interface OperaArguments
extends Iterable<OperaArgument>

Defines a joint interface for interacting with arguments to various kinds of Operas. OperaArguments represents a command-line argument list and contains individual arguments represented by OperaArgument's.

Method Detail

add

void add(String argument)

Adds a new argument to the command-line argument list representation. A new OperaArgument will be created with an empty value.

Parameters:

argument - the argument key to add

add

void add(String argument,
       Object value)

Adds a new argument with a value to the command-line argument list representation. A new OperaArgument will be created with specified value.

Parameters:

argument - the argument key to add

value - the value the argument should hold

add

void add(OperaArgument argument)

Adds a new argument to the command-line argument list representation. The OperaArgument can optionally hold a value.

Parameters:

argument - the argument to add

remove

void remove(OperaArgument argument)

Removes the specified argument from the command-line argument list representation.

Parameters:

argument - the argument to remove

get

OperaArgument get(int index)

Convenience method to access the given indexed argument in the command-line list representation. This maps to OperaArguments.getArguments().get(x).

Parameters:

index - the argument to fetch

Returns:

an argument

getArguments

List<OperaArgument> getArguments()

Gets the list of all arguments, each represented by OperaArgument.

Returns:

list of all arguments

iterator

Iterator<OperaArgument> iterator()

Gets an iterator for all arguments present in this collection.

Specified by:

iterator in interface Iterable<OperaArgument>

Returns:

iterator of all arguments

getArgumentsAsStringList

List<String> getArgumentsAsStringList()

Gets all arguments as a string list, including the argument's values.

Returns:

list of all arguments, including values

toString

String toString()

Gets the string representation of the command-line, as it would be used externally.

Overrides:

toString in class Object

Returns:

full command-line including argument keys and values

size

int size()

Fetches the number of arguments in the command-line list representation. Convenience method for OperaArguments.getArguments().size().

Returns:

number of arguments (not including values)

merge

OperaArguments merge(OperaArguments extraArguments)

Merge this command-line list representation with another representation. Note that this will alter the state of the current object as it does not return a new OperaArguments object.

Parameters:

extraArguments - the OperaArguments to merge into this

Returns:

a reference to self

sign

String sign()

Gets the command-line argument sign used by this implementation of OperaArguments. Depending on which implementation (OperaCoreArguments, OperaDesktopArguments) you are using, you will get a OperaArgument.OperaArgumentSign.

Returns:

a command-line argument sign
