All Known Implementing Classes:

BasicCollector, DefaultCollector

Enclosing class:

Mustache

public static interface Mustache.Collector

Handles interpreting objects as collections.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
Mustache.VariableFetcher	createFetcher(Object ctx, String name) Creates a fetcher for a so-named variable in the supplied context object, which will never be null.
<K,V> Map<K,V>	createFetcherCache() Creates a map to be used to cache Mustache.VariableFetcher instances.
Iterator<?>	toIterator(Object value) Returns an iterator that can iterate over the supplied value, or null if the value is not a collection.

Method Detail

toIterator

Iterator<?> toIterator(Object value)

Returns an iterator that can iterate over the supplied value, or null if the value is not a collection.

createFetcher

Mustache.VariableFetcher createFetcher(Object ctx,
                                       String name)

Creates a fetcher for a so-named variable in the supplied context object, which will never be null. The fetcher will be cached and reused for future contexts for which octx.getClass().equals(nctx.getClass().

createFetcherCache

<K,V> Map<K,V> createFetcherCache()

Creates a map to be used to cache Mustache.VariableFetcher instances. The GWT-compatible collector returns a HashMap here, but the reflection based fetcher (which only works on the JVM and Android, returns a concurrent hashmap.
