That means we cannot * extend it, so instead we use the delegate pattern. The idea is that * instead of extending {@code IntSet4}, we keep one in a field. Then we can * implement our {@link InstrumentedIntSet} by delegating method calls to the * delegate (that is, letting the delegate do the work), and we can extend * the functionality by doing other things in our wrapper methods besides * delegating (such as updating the count). * *
One disadvantage of this approach is that we now have to write a shim * for every method, even if all it does is delegate, whereas inheritance * would have included all the non-overridden methods for us. An advantage is * the increase in flexibility, since we can now do things such as instrument * an existing {@link IntSet} without having to know its implementation. * Since the delegate is a field, we could also do things like change it at * will. (This class doesn't support that at this point, but it wouldn't be * difficult to add.) */ public class InstrumentedIntSet4 implements InstrumentedIntSet { private int addCount = 0; private final IntSet delegate; /** * Constructs a new instrumented integer set. */ public InstrumentedIntSet4() { delegate = new IntSet4(); } /** * Constructs an instrumented integer set on top of an existing * {@link IntSet}. * * @param base the integer set to instrument (non-null) */ public InstrumentedIntSet4(IntSet base) { Objects.requireNonNull(base, "base cannot be null"); delegate = base; } /** * Returns the count of how many times an element has been added to the set. * * @return the count of added elements */ public int getAddCount() { return addCount; } @Override public void add(int value) { delegate.add(value); ++addCount; } @Override public void addAll(int... values) { delegate.addAll(values); addCount += values.length; } @Override public void remove(int value) { delegate.remove(value); } @Override public boolean member(int value) { return delegate.member(value); } }
