The implementation contained in the above two attachments provides for three new properties:
o.e.c.b.collections.copy.suffix
A string property like the mostly undocumented o.e.c.b.collections.reference.suffix, except for
set-by-copy methods. Default is the empty string. Has no effect if not using
o.e.c.b.extraCollectionMethods.
o.e.c.b.collections.array.suffix
Also like reference.suffix, except for get-by- and set-by-array methods. Note that the set-by-
array methods get this suffix, even though they are also set-by-copy methods. Default is the
empty string. The user must take care that array.suffix and reference.suffix are not the same,
otherwise his/her code won't compile – it will have two methods with the same signature.
o.e.c.b.collections.useInterfaces
A boolean property that indicates that SG should not explicitly use ArrayList declarations for
collection handling. Specifically:
- Declaration of a collection - use List. (Note that default initialization is still ArrayList.)
- get[Element]ByReference - return List.
- set[Element]ByReference(element) - parameter is a List
- set[Element](elementCollection) - parameter is a Collection. (This patch also changes the
generated implementation to use an Iterator instead of direct access.)
Default is false. Has no effect if not using -types j2.
I've run both the MasterTestSuite and the RegressionTestSuite against the SG with this patch
applied and nothing failed that didn't also fail in the released version 0.9.5.
