Extracts a new PathMap from this PathMap's elements with the paths relocated to the provided "to-path".

Returns:

The PathMap with the elements from the provided PathMap with accordingly relocated paths.

getType

public Class<T> getType()

Specified by:

getType in interface org.refcodes.mixin.TypeAccessor<T>

toDataStructure

public Object toDataStructure(String aFromPath)

Similar to the PathMap.toMap(String) method, though in case all the keys of a nested Map instance (applicable to the root Map as well) represent an array (as of PathMap.getArray(String)), then an array is generated where the index of each value in the Map is represented by the number representation of the Map's key for that value. The result is a data structure consisting of Map instances and arrays.

Specified by:

toDataStructure in interface PathMap<T>

Parameters:

aFromPath - The path below which the PathMap to be converted into a data structure.

Returns:

A data structure being a mixture of Map instances and arrays representing the data below the given path.

insert

public void insert(Object aFrom)

Inspects the given object and adds all elements found in the given object. Elements of type Map, Collection and arrays are identified and handled as of their type: The path for each value in a Map is appended with its according key. The path for each value in a Collection or array is appended with its according index of occurrence (in case of a List or an array, its actual index). In case of reflection, the path for each member is appended with its according mamber's name. All elements (e.g. the members and values) are inspected recursively which results in the according paths of the terminating values.

Specified by:

insert in interface PathMap.MutablePathMap<T>

Parameters:

aFrom - The object which is to be inspected with the therein contained values being added with their according determined paths.

insertBetween

public void insertBetween(String aToPath,
 Object aFrom,
 String aFromPath)

Same as PathMap.MutablePathMap.insert(Object) though starting insertion of object's introspected values at the given "to-path" and starting object introspection at the given "from-path", e.g. ignoring all paths not starting with the given path during the introspection process. The resulting paths do not start with the "from-path" path, them start with the given "to-path".

Specified by:

insertBetween in interface PathMap.MutablePathMap<T>

Parameters:

aToPath - The sub-path where to insert the object's introspected values to.

aFrom - The object which is to be inspected with the therein contained values being added with their according determined paths.

aFromPath - The path from where to start adding elements of the provided object.

insertFrom

public void insertFrom(Object aFrom,
 String aFromPath)

Same as PathMap.MutablePathMap.insert(Object) though starting object introspection at the given "path", e.g. ignoring all paths not starting with the given path during the introspection process. The resulting paths do not start with the provided path.

Specified by:

insertFrom in interface PathMap.MutablePathMap<T>

Parameters:

aFrom - The object which is to be inspected with the therein contained values being added with their according determined paths.

aFromPath - The path from where to start adding elements of the provided object.

insertTo

public void insertTo(String aToPath,

Specified by:

insertTo in interface PathMap.MutablePathMap<T>

Parameters:

aToPath - The sub-path where to insert the object's introspected values to.

aFrom - The object which is to be inspected with the therein contained values being added with their according determined paths.

merge

public void merge(Object aFrom)

Inspects the given object and adds all elements found in the given object in case the targeted path does not exist or points to a null value. E.g. existing path/value pairs are not overwritten. Elements of type Map, Collection and arrays are identified and handled as of their type: The path for each value in a Map is appended with its according key. The path for each value in a Collection or array is appended with its according index of occurrence (in case of a List or an array, its actual index). In case of reflection, the path for each member is appended with its according mamber's name. All elements (e.g. the members and values) are inspected recursively which results in the according paths of the terminating values.

Specified by:

merge in interface PathMap.MutablePathMap<T>

Parameters:

aFrom - The object which is to be inspected with the therein contained values being added with their according determined paths.

mergeBetween

public void mergeBetween(String aToPath,
 Object aFrom,
 String aFromPath)

Same as PathMap.MutablePathMap.merge(Object) though starting merging of object's introspected values at the given "to-path" and starting object introspection at the given "from-path", e.g. ignoring all paths not starting with the given path during the introspection process. The resulting paths do not start with the "from-path" path, them start with the given "to-path".

Parameters:

aToPath - The sub-path where to merge the object's introspected values to.
