Class SearchContentAdapter

java.lang.Object

org.biojava.bio.search.SearchContentAdapter

All Implemented Interfaces:

SearchContentHandler

Direct Known Subclasses:

FilteringContentHandler

public class SearchContentAdapter
extends Object
implements SearchContentHandler

An adapter for SearchContentHandler.

This adapter is in the same spirit as the event handler adapters in java.awt.event, and is intended as a simple base-class for implementations that only want to handle a small number of the possible call-backs. All method implementations are empty except for getMoreSearches() and setMoreSearches(). These two maintain a boolean state between calls. If you over-ride one, you should override the other.

Example

 // a very boring handler
 SearchContentHanlder ignoreEverything = new SearchContentAdapter();

 // just respond to sub hit properties
 SearchContentHander subHitsOnly = new SearchContentAdapter() {
   public void addSubHitProperth(Object key, Object value) {
     System.out.println(key + " -> " + value);
   }
 };
