Class GenericObjectFactory<T>

java.lang.Object
  org.hypergraphdb.type.GenericObjectFactory<T>

All Implemented Interfaces:

ObjectFactory<T>

public class GenericObjectFactory<T>
extends java.lang.Object
implements ObjectFactory<T>

An ObjectFactory implementation that simply uses a specific Class to fabricate instances. If the Class has a constructor taking a single argument of type HGHandle[] than this constructor is used in a call to the make(HGHandle [] targetSet) method. Otherwise, if that latter version of make is called, an exception will be thrown. Note that the implementation doesn't check whether the Class that it handles actually implements the HGLink interface.
