Class Vertex<T>

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Comparable<Vertex<T>>

    public final class Vertex<T>
    extends Object
    implements Comparable<Vertex<T>>
    Vertex is used to track dependencies and each node in a graph. Typical uses would be to ensure components are started up and torn down in the proper order, or bundles were loaded and unloaded in the proper order, etc.

    • Constructor Detail

      • Vertex

        public Vertex​(T node)
        A vertex wraps a node, which can be anything.
        Parameters:
        node - The wrapped node.
      • Vertex

        public Vertex​(String name,
                      T node)
        A vertex wraps a node, which can be anything.
        Parameters:
        name - A name for the node which will be used to produce useful errors.
        node - The wrapped node.
    • Method Detail

      • reset

        public void reset()
        Reset the Vertex so that all the flags and runtime states are set back to the original values.
      • getName

        public String getName()
        Returns the name of the Vertex.
        Returns:
        The name of the Vertex.
      • getNode

        public T getNode()
        Get the wrapped node that this Vertex represents.
        Returns:
        the node
      • addDependency

        public void addDependency​(Vertex<T> v)
        Add a dependecy to this Vertex. The Vertex that this one depends on will be marked as referenced and then added to the list of dependencies. The list is checked before the dependency is added.
        Parameters:
        v - The vertex we depend on.
      • resolveOrder

        public void resolveOrder()
                          throws CyclicDependencyException
        Recurse through the tree from this vertex assigning an order to each and at the same time checking for any cyclic dependencies.
        Throws:
        CyclicDependencyException - If a cyclic dependency is discovered.
      • getDependencies

        public List<Vertex<T>> getDependencies()
        Get the list of dependencies.
        Returns:
        The list of dependencies.
      • compareTo

        public int compareTo​(Vertex<T> o)
        Used in the sort algorithm to sort all the Vertices so that they respect the ordinal they were given during the topological sort.
        Specified by:
        compareTo in interface Comparable<T>
        Parameters:
        o - The other Vertex to compare with
        Returns:
        -1 if this < o, 0 if this == o, or 1 if this > o
      • getOrder

        public int getOrder()
        Get the ordinal for this vertex.
        Returns:
        the order.
