Method Detail

newInstance

public <T> T newInstance(Class<T> c)

Description copied from interface: CloneImplementor

Create a new, uninitialised instance of the given class (if supported). Depending on strategy, this may or may not initialise instance fields, and may or may not invoke constructors.

Specified by:

newInstance in interface CloneImplementor

Type Parameters:

T - The type of the instance to be constructed

Parameters:

c - Type to create instance of

Returns:

The new instance

canClone

public boolean canClone(Class<?> clazz)

Description copied from interface: CloneImplementor

True if this implementor can clone the given class

Specified by:

canClone in interface CloneImplementor

Parameters:

clazz - The class

Returns:

True if cloneable, false otherwise

clone

public <T> T clone(T obj,
                   CloneDriver context,
                   IdentityHashMap<Object,Object> referencesToReuse,
                   long stackDepth)

Description copied from interface: CloneImplementor

Performs a clone.

Specified by:

clone in interface CloneImplementor

Type Parameters:

T - The type of the object to be cloned

Parameters:

obj - Object to clone

context - The CloneDriver that initiated the request

referencesToReuse - Any references for objects already cloned to ensure reference identity is preserved

stackDepth - The number of objects already cloned in the current data structure

Returns:

The cloned object
