Class ConfigBuilder


  • @Generated("mdsal-binding-generator")
    public class ConfigBuilder
    extends Object
    Class that builds Config instances. Overall design of the class is that of a fluent interface, where method chaining is used.

    In general, this class is supposed to be used like this template:

       
         Config createConfig(int fooXyzzy, int barBaz) {
             return new ConfigBuilder()
                 .setFoo(new FooBuilder().setXyzzy(fooXyzzy).build())
                 .setBar(new BarBuilder().setBaz(barBaz).build())
                 .build();
         }
       
     

    This pattern is supported by the immutable nature of Config, as instances can be freely passed around without worrying about synchronization issues.

    As a side note: method chaining results in:

    • very efficient Java bytecode, as the method invocation result, in this case the Builder reference, is on the stack, so further method invocations just need to fill method arguments for the next method invocation, which is terminated by build(), which is then returned from the method
    • better understanding by humans, as the scope of mutable state (the builder) is kept to a minimum and is very localized
    • better optimization opportunities, as the object scope is minimized in terms of invocation (rather than method) stack, making escape analysis a lot easier. Given enough compiler (JIT/AOT) prowess, the cost of th builder object can be completely eliminated

        Parameters:
        arg - grouping object
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if given argument is none of valid types or has property with incompatible value

        E$$ - augmentation type
        Parameters:
        augmentationType - augmentation type class
        Returns:
        Augmentation object from this builder, or null if not present
        Throws:
        NullPointerException - if augmentType is null
      • addAugmentation

        public ConfigBuilder addAugmentation​(org.opendaylight.yangtools.yang.binding.Augmentation<Config> augmentation)

        Parameters:
        augmentationType - augmentation type to be removed
        Returns:
        this builder
      • build
