The example is as follows: I have a Box
that needs to be filled with some Thing
s. I'm interested only in weight of each thing. Also, beside weight, I need to correctly identify the thing that I'm measuring. Each thing type has different Id type. In this case I have toys and fruits, which have ToyId
and FruitId
respectively. In the end, I need to be able to print thing identifier and thing weight.
Question: Is it somehow possible to access specific methods on ThingId
s without using instanceof operator (as in example)?
class Color{}
interface ThingId {}
class FruitId implements ThingId {
String name; //"apple", "orange", ...
FruitId(String name){ this.name = name; }
String getName(){ return this.name; }
}
class ToyId implements ThingId {
String shape; //"square", "circle", ...
Color color; //"red", "blue"...
ToyId(String shape, Color color){ this.shape = shape; this.color = color; }
String getShape(){ return this.shape; }
Color getColor(){ return this.color; }
}
class Thing{
ThingId thingId;
Integer weight;
public Thing(ThingId thingId, Integer weight){
this.thingId = thingId;
this.weight = weight;
}
ThingId getThingId(){ return this.thingId; }
Integer getWeight(){ return this.weight; }
}
class Box {
Set<Thing> things = new HashSet<>();
void addThing(Thing thing){
this.things.add(thing);
}
Collection<Thing> getThings(){
return this.things;
}
}
class Program {
public static void main(String[] args) {
FruitId appleId = new FruitId("apple");
Thing apple = new Thing(appleId, 1);
ToyId cubeId = new ToyId("square", new Color());
Thing cube = new Thing(cubeId, 22);
Box box = new Box();
box.addThing(apple);
box.addThing(cube);
for(Thing t : box.getThings()){
System.out.print("Thing Id is: ");
if(t.getThingId() instanceof FruitId) { //any other possibility than using instance of?
process((FruitId)t.getThingId());
}
if(t.getThingId() instanceof ToyId){ //any other possibility than using instance of?
process((ToyId)t.getThingId());
}
System.out.println("Weight is : " + t.getWeight());
}
}
static void process(FruitId fruitId){
System.out.println(fruitId.getName());
}
static void process(ToyId toyId){
System.out.println(toyId.getShape() + toyId.getColor());
}
}
