Package wt.graph

Class ObjectGraphCallback

java.lang.Object

wt.visitor.CompositeVisitor

wt.graph.ObjectGraphCallback

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Visitor

public class ObjectGraphCallback
extends CompositeVisitor
implements Serializable

Performs common pre/post-processing activities on each visited node as a callback. This could also be a customization point where application callbacks (visitors) are added to help satisfy a particular consumer's specific requirements.

For instance, if an application had additional requirements to censor information in the object graph, based on say specific access control permissions, then the application could add their custom visitor to the object graph's set visitor. Then when the object graph was next traversed, not only would all of the previously added visitors be employed, but additionally the newly added application visitor as well.

Supported API: true

Extendable: false
