Interface ISingleCollection<T>

Type Parameters:

T - object of the type user specifies at the time of instantiation of this interface.

All Superinterfaces:

ICollectionIterable<T>, java.lang.Iterable<T>, java.io.Serializable

All Known Implementing Classes:

SingleCollection

public interface ISingleCollection<T>
extends ICollectionIterable<T>, java.io.Serializable

This interface needs to be implemented by all classes which implements the functionality of Single Collection. This interface provides the user with an abstract interface towards collections holding series of objects.

Method Detail

add

boolean add(T objT)

The implementor of this method should provide the mechanism to add the object to the collection .

Parameters:

objT - object - object of the type user specifies at the time of instantiation of this interface.

Returns:

boolean - returns the status indicating whether the element is added or not .

contains

boolean contains(T objT)

The implementation of this method checks the presence of a specified element in the collection.

Parameters:

objT - object of the type user specifies at the time of instantiation of this interface.

Returns:

boolean - shows status as success or failure.

get

T get(int index)

The implementation of this method retrieves the element based on the location.

Parameters:

index - integer indicating the position of the element to be retrieved from the collection.

Returns:

object - object of the type user specifies at the time of instantiation of this interface .

size

int size()

The implementation of this method retrieves the size of the collection.

Returns:

int - returns the number of elements present in the collection.

elementAt

T elementAt(int index)

The implementation of this method retrieves the element based on its index.

Parameters:

index - index of the element to be retrieved from the collection.

Returns:

T - object retrieved from the collection.

toArray

T[] toArray()

The implementation of this method retrieves the array from this collection.

Returns:

T[] - returns the array representation of the collection.

remove

void remove(int iIndex)

The implementation of this method removes the element at the specified index.

Parameters:

iIndex - - position of the element.

remove

void remove(T objT)

The implementation of this method removes the element specified from the collection.

Parameters:

objT - - element to be removed.

isEmpty

boolean isEmpty()

The implementation of this method checks that either collection is null or empty.

Returns:

boolean - element to be removed.

clear

void clear()

Removes all of the elements from this SingleCollection. The SingleCollection will be empty after this call returns (unless it throws an exception).
