Interface MirrorMap.Mirror<K,V,R>

Type Parameters:

K - The type of keys maintained by this map.

V - The type of value object of this mirror.

R - The type of reflected value object of this mirror.

Enclosing class:

MirrorMap<K,V,R>

public static interface MirrorMap.Mirror<K,V,R>

Interface providing methods for the reflection of one type of object to another, and vice-versa.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
V	reflectionToValue(K key, R reflection) Reflects a reflected value object of type <R> to a value object of type <V>.
default MirrorMap.Mirror<K,R,V>	reverse() Returns the reverse representation of this MirrorMap.Mirror, whereby the value object type <V> and reflected value object of type <R> are swapped.
R	valueToReflection(K key, V value) Reflects a value object of type <V> to a reflected value object of type <R>.

The reflected value object of type <R>.

reflectionToValue

V reflectionToValue(K key,
                    R reflection)

Reflects a reflected value object of type <R> to a value object of type <V>.

Parameters:

key - The key.

reflection - The reflected value object of type <R>.

Returns:

The value object of type <V>.

reverse

default MirrorMap.Mirror<K,R,V> reverse()

Returns the reverse representation of this MirrorMap.Mirror, whereby the value object type <V> and reflected value object of type <R> are swapped.

Returns:

The reverse representation of this MirrorMap.Mirror.
