Class BatchProcessor<T,​S>

  • Type Parameters:
    T - the object Type to be processed.
    S - the expected output Type of the processing.
    public final class BatchProcessor<T,​S>
extends java.lang.Object
    Used to process one or multiple objects. Processing is accomplished via a level of abstraction. This is the primary control structure of the SNBA code base.

      • BatchProcessor

        public BatchProcessor()
        Constructs a BatchProcessor. Since a BatchProcessor object only relies on restrictions set using angle bracket operators, no other information is needed for proper instantiation.

    • Method Detail

      • processSingular

        public java.util.ArrayList<S> processSingular​(T toProcess,
                                              Processable<T,​S> processor)
        Processes a singular object. Utilizes a system of abstraction to allow multiple parts of the program to rely on the same infrastructure for performing mass-processing.
        Parameters:
        toProcess - the T object to process.
        processor - the Processable object to process with.
        Returns:
        the S object array containing the results of the processing.

      • processMultiple

        public java.util.ArrayList<java.util.ArrayList<S>> processMultiple​(T[] toProcess,
                                                                   Processable<T,​S> processor)
        Processes multiple files. This method does so by calling the processSingular(T, Processable) method.
        Parameters:
        toProcess - the T object array containing the objects to be processed.
        processor - the Processable object to process the objects with.
        Returns:
        the S object two dimensional array containing the collective results of the processing.
