All Implemented Interfaces:

ILookUp

public class StartsWithLookUpAgent
extends Object
implements ILookUp

Agent that looks up items of an locale-rules alphabetically sort ordered Vector that start with a text. Those items will be returned as a List.

Creates a new instance of the class StartsWithLookUpAgent.

Method Details

doLookUpConsideringCaseSensitive

public List<Object> doLookUpConsideringCaseSensitive(String text,
 Vector<Object> sortOrderedItems,
 StringComparator comp)

Description copied from interface: ILookUp

This method should be used when is wanted to distinguish small letters from capital letters during the search.

It's necessary that all items of the array implement the Comparable interface.

It's also necessary that the value returned by the toString() method of each item (supposing they inherit from Object) would be the expected value user saw (that would be used to compare the items).

And elements of the Vector should be sort ordered by a StringComparator with the same configuration as comp.

Specified by:

doLookUpConsideringCaseSensitive in interface ILookUp

Parameters:

text - java.lang.String

sortOrderedItems - java.util.Vector

comp - An StringComparator object which implements the compareTo() method. Must have the same configuration that was used to sort order the items of sortOrderedItems.

Returns:

A sublist with all items that carry out with the particular search algorithm requirements
