I often use this design in my code to maintain configurable values. Consider this code:
public enum Options {
REGEX_STRING("Some Regex"),
REGEX_PATTERN(Pattern.compile(REGEX_STRING.getString()), false),
THREAD_COUNT(2),
OPTIONS_PATH("options.config", false),
DEBUG(true),
ALWAYS_SAVE_OPTIONS(true),
THREAD_WAIT_MILLIS(1000);
Object value;
boolean saveValue = true;
private Options(Object value) {
this.value = value;
}
private Options(Object value, boolean saveValue) {
this.value = value;
this.saveValue = saveValue;
}
public void setValue(Object value) {
this.value = value;
}
public Object getValue() {
return value;
}
public String getString() {
return value.toString();
}
public boolean getBoolean() {
Boolean booleanValue = (value instanceof Boolean) ? (Boolean) value : null;
if (value == null) {
try {
booleanValue = Boolean.valueOf(value.toString());
}
catch (Throwable t) {
}
}
// We want a NullPointerException here
return booleanValue.booleanValue();
}
public int getInteger() {
Integer integerValue = (value instanceof Number) ? ((Number) value).intValue() : null;
if (integerValue == null) {
try {
integerValue = Integer.valueOf(value.toString());
}
catch (Throwable t) {
}
}
return integerValue.intValue();
}
public float getFloat() {
Float floatValue = (value instanceof Number) ? ((Number) value).floatValue() : null;
if (floatValue == null) {
try {
floatValue = Float.valueOf(value.toString());
}
catch (Throwable t) {
}
}
return floatValue.floatValue();
}
public static void saveToFile(String path) throws IOException {
FileWriter fw = new FileWriter(path);
Properties properties = new Properties();
for (Options option : Options.values()) {
if (option.saveValue) {
properties.setProperty(option.name(), option.getString());
}
}
if (DEBUG.getBoolean()) {
properties.list(System.out);
}
properties.store(fw, null);
}
public static void loadFromFile(String path) throws IOException {
FileReader fr = new FileReader(path);
Properties properties = new Properties();
properties.load(fr);
if (DEBUG.getBoolean()) {
properties.list(System.out);
}
Object value = null;
for (Options option : Options.values()) {
if (option.saveValue) {
Class<?> clazz = option.value.getClass();
try {
if (String.class.equals(clazz)) {
value = properties.getProperty(option.name());
}
else {
value = clazz.getConstructor(String.class).newInstance(properties.getProperty(option.name()));
}
}
catch (NoSuchMethodException ex) {
Debug.log(ex);
}
catch (InstantiationException ex) {
Debug.log(ex);
}
catch (IllegalAccessException ex) {
Debug.log(ex);
}
catch (IllegalArgumentException ex) {
Debug.log(ex);
开发者_如何学Python }
catch (InvocationTargetException ex) {
Debug.log(ex);
}
if (value != null) {
option.setValue(value);
}
}
}
}
}
This way, I can save and retrieve values from files easily. The problem is that I don't want to repeat this code everywhere. Like as we know, enums can't be extended; so wherever I use this, I have to put all these methods there. I want only to declare the values and that if they should be persisted. No method definitions each time; any ideas?
Using an enum to hold configurable values like this looks like an entirely wrong design. Enums are singletons, so effectively you can only have one configuration active at any given time.
An EnumMap sounds more like what you need. It's external to the enum, so you can instantiate as many configurations as you need.
import java.util.*;
public class EnumMapExample {
static enum Options {
DEBUG, ALWAYS_SAVE, THREAD_COUNT;
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
Map<Options,Object> normalConfig = new EnumMap<Options,Object>(Options.class);
normalConfig.put(Options.DEBUG, false);
normalConfig.put(Options.THREAD_COUNT, 3);
System.out.println(normalConfig);
// prints "{DEBUG=false, THREAD_COUNT=3}"
Map<Options,Object> debugConfig = new EnumMap<Options,Object>(Options.class);
debugConfig.put(Options.DEBUG, true);
debugConfig.put(Options.THREAD_COUNT, 666);
System.out.println(debugConfig);
// prints "{DEBUG=true, THREAD_COUNT=666}"
}
}

java.util.EnumMapA specialized
Mapimplementation for use withenumtype keys. All of the keys in an enum map must come from a single enum type that is specified, explicitly or implicitly, when the map is created. Enum maps are represented internally as arrays. This representation is extremely compact and efficient.
i tried doing something similar with enum maps and properties files (please see code below). but my enums were simple and only had one value except for an embedded case. i may have something that is more type safe. i will look around for it.

answering your comment:
seems like i am getting values by using the enum as the key. i am probably confused.
an enum can implement an interface and each set of enums could have an instance of that base class and delegate calls to it (see item 34 of http://java.sun.com/docs/books/effective/toc.html)
i found the other code that went with my generic attributes (please see below), but i can't find any tests for it and am not quite sure what i was doing other than perhaps to add some stronger typing.
my motivation for all of this was to store some attributes for a photo viewer like picasa, i wanted to store a bunch of attributes for a picture in a single line of a property file
package p;
import java.util.*;
public enum GA {
// like properties, seems like this wants to be constructed with a set of default values
i(Integer.class) {
Integer fromString(final String s) {
return new Integer(s);
}
Integer fromNull() {
return zero; // return empty string?
}
},
b(Boolean.class) {
Boolean fromString(final String s) {
return s.startsWith("t")?true:false;
}
Boolean fromNull() {
return false;
}
},
d(Double.class) {
Double fromString(final String s) {
return new Double(s);
}
Double fromNull() {
return new Double(zero);
}
};
GA() {
this(String.class);
}
GA(final Class clazz) {
this.clazz=clazz;
}
abstract Object fromString(String string);
abstract Object fromNull();
static GenericAttributes<GA> fromProperties(final Properties properties) {
final GenericAttributes<GA> pas=new GenericAttributes<GA>(GA.class);
for(Map.Entry<Object,Object> entry:properties.entrySet()) {
final String key=(String)entry.getKey();
final GA pa=valueOf(key);
if(pa!=null) {
final String stringValue=(String)entry.getValue();
Object value=pa.fromString(stringValue);
pas.addProperty(key,value);
} else throw new RuntimeException(key+"is not a member of "+"GA");
}
return pas;
}
// private final Object defaultValue; // lose type?; require cast?
/* private */final Class clazz;
static final Integer zero=new Integer(0);
}
If you are still looking for answers, you could give a try to Properties library which is open-source with MIT license. Using this, you won't have to specify string constants and everything will be determined by an enum defined by you. And, it has some other features too. Highlights of this library are:
- All property keys are defined in a single place, i.e. a user defined
enum - Property values can contain variables (starting with
$sign, e.g.$PATH) wherePATHis a property key in same file - Property value can be obtained as specified data type, so no need to convert string value to required data type
- Property value can be obtained as list of specified data types
- Property value can be a multi-line text
- Can make property keys mandatory or optional
- Can specify default value for the property key if value is not available
- Is thread safe
