Method Detail

getAdapter

public <A extends IAdapter> A getAdapter(java.lang.Class<A> adapterType)

Description copied from interface: IAdaptable

The method parameter sets a type of the adapter, which instance we want to get. As we can see from the method declaration, there can be only one adapter of the declared type for every adaptable object.

Therefore, if it is necessary to bind several objects of the same type and an adaptable object, its adapter has to "wrap up" all these the same-type objects in it and provide access to them.

Specified by:

getAdapter in interface IAdaptable

Type Parameters:

A - type of the adapter, which instance we want to get.

Parameters:

adapterType - type of the adapter, which instance we want to get.

Returns:

Adapter instance bounded to the adaptable object.
