public abstract class AbstractReference2CharFunction<K>
extends java.lang.Object
implements Reference2CharFunction<K>, java.io.Serializable

An abstract class providing basic methods for functions implementing a type-specific interface.

This class handles directly a default return value (including methods to access it). Instances of classes inheriting from this class have just to return defRetValue to denote lack of a key in type-specific methods. The value is serialized.

Implementing subclasses have just to provide type-specific get(), type-specific containsKey(), and size() methods.

Method Detail

defaultReturnValue

public void defaultReturnValue(char rv)

Description copied from interface: Reference2CharFunction

Sets the default return value (optional operation). This value must be returned by type-specific versions of get(), put() and remove() to denote that the map does not contain the specified key. It must be 0/false/null by default.

Specified by:

defaultReturnValue in interface Reference2CharFunction<K>

Parameters:

rv - the new default return value.

Reference2CharFunction.defaultReturnValue()

defaultReturnValue

public char defaultReturnValue()

Description copied from interface: Reference2CharFunction

Gets the default return value.

This default implementation just return the default null value of the type (null for objects, 0 for scalars, false for Booleans).

Specified by:

defaultReturnValue in interface Reference2CharFunction<K>

Returns:

the current default return value.
