Interface NamingPolicy<T>

Type Parameters:

T - the type of object stored in the namespace

public interface NamingPolicy<T>

Generates names for namespace entries when none is provided. By specifying a NamingPolicy, a user can control the behavior of the NamespaceBuilder.add(Object) method. This does not necessarily guarantee success of the namespace operation; if the generated name collides with a name already in use, the collision policy is still in effect.

A number of common policies are defined in NamespaceBuilder. Refer to the Javadoc there for details.
