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.
