Enum IdempotenceType

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Comparable<IdempotenceType>
    public enum IdempotenceType
extends Enum<IdempotenceType>
    This value indicates, whether the evaluation of this role gives the same results regardless of its position in the assignment/inducement hierarchy. I.e. evaluation of this roles does not depend on the assignment parameters of focus or any of the preceding roles. This flag is used to enable aggressive caching of role evaluation, so idempotent roles are only evaluated once regardless of their position in the hierarchy as we can assume that any subsequent evaluation will produce exactly the same results as the first evaluation. This is a very important feature that allows efficient evaluation of big role hierarchies.

    • Enum Constant Detail

      • NONE

        public static final IdempotenceType NONE
        Role is not idempotent. The role must be evaluated for all situations: all assignment paths, all orders, etc.

      • CONSERVATIVE

        public static final IdempotenceType CONSERVATIVE
        This value indicates, that the evaluation of this role gives the same results regardless of its position in the assignment/inducement hierarchy. I.e. evaluation of this roles does not depend on the assignment parameters of focus or any of the preceding roles. However, the role will still be re-evaluated if it is found with assignment path of different depths or orders (e.g. in meta-role situations).

      • AGGRESSIVE

        public static final IdempotenceType AGGRESSIVE
        This value indicates, that the evaluation of this role gives the same results regardless of its position in the assignment/inducement hierarchy including different path lengths and evaluation orders. I.e. evaluation of this roles does not depend on the assignment parameters of focus or any of the preceding roles and it has no meta-role capability (e.g. higher-order inducements).

    • Method Detail

      • values

        public static IdempotenceType[] values()
        Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows: 
        for (IdempotenceType c : IdempotenceType.values())
    System.out.println(c);
        Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

      • valueOf

        public static IdempotenceType valueOf​(String name)
        Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
        Parameters:
        name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
        Returns:
        the enum constant with the specified name
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
        NullPointerException - if the argument is null
