Personality (Apache Jena)

java.lang.Object
- org.apache.jena.enhanced.Personality<T>

Direct Known Subclasses:

GraphPersonality, NodePersonality
```
public class Personality<T>
extends java.lang.Object
```
Defines a set of permitted mappings from [interface] Class objects to Implementation factories that can generate instances of the facet represented by the Class.

Constructors
Constructor	Description
`Personality()`	base constructor, does nothing [except implicitly create _types_]
`Personality(Personality<T> other)`	initialise this personality with the bindings from _other_

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Concrete Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`<X extends T> Personality<T>`	`add(java.lang.Class<X> interf, Implementation impl)`	Add a new interface and its implementation to this Personality.
`Personality<T>`	`add(Personality<T> p)`	extend this personality by adding in all the mappings from the argument _p_.
`Personality<T>`	`copy()`	create a new Personality copying this one; the _types_ state is copied, not shared.
`<X extends T> Implementation`	`getImplementation(java.lang.Class<X> t)`	get the implementation for the specified type, returning null if there isn't one available.
`<X extends T> X`	`newInstance(java.lang.Class<X> interf, Node n, EnhGraph that)`	make a new instance of a type _interf_ based on the node _n_ and the polymorphic _that_; use the implementation wrapper for _interf_ in _types_.

  - add
```
public <X extends T> Personality<T> add(java.lang.Class<X> interf,
                                        Implementation impl)
```
    Add a new interface and its implementation to this Personality.
    
    Parameters:
    
    interf - The interface to add, expressed as a Type object.
    
    impl - A way of implementing _interf_.
  - copy
```
public Personality<T> copy()
```
    create a new Personality copying this one; the _types_ state is copied, not shared.
  - getImplementation
```
public <X extends T> Implementation getImplementation(java.lang.Class<X> t)
```
    get the implementation for the specified type, returning null if there isn't one available.
  - add
```
public Personality<T> add(Personality<T> p)
```
    extend this personality by adding in all the mappings from the argument _p_. return _this_ (for call chaining).
  - newInstance
```
public <X extends T> X newInstance(java.lang.Class<X> interf,
                                   Node n,
                                   EnhGraph that)
```
    make a new instance of a type _interf_ based on the node _n_ and the polymorphic _that_; use the implementation wrapper for _interf_ in _types_.
