Class ImmutableMultiset.Builder<E>

  com.google.common.collect.ImmutableCollection.Builder<E>

Direct Known Subclasses:

ImmutableSortedMultiset.Builder

Enclosing class:

ImmutableMultiset<E>

public static class ImmutableMultiset.Builder<E>
extends ImmutableCollection.Builder<E>

A builder for creating immutable multiset instances, especially public static final multisets ("constant multisets"). Example:

 public static final ImmutableMultiset<Bean> BEANS =
       new ImmutableMultiset.Builder<Bean>()
           .addCopies(Bean.COCOA, 4)
           .addCopies(Bean.GARDEN, 6)
           .addCopies(Bean.RED, 8)
           .addCopies(Bean.BLACK_EYED, 10)
           .build();

Builder instances can be reused; it is safe to call build() multiple times to build multiple multisets in series.

Constructor Summary

ImmutableMultiset.Builder()
Creates a new builder.

Method Summary

ImmutableMultiset.Builder<E>	add(E... elements) Adds each element of elements to the ImmutableMultiset.
ImmutableMultiset.Builder<E>	add(E element) Adds element to the ImmutableMultiset.
ImmutableMultiset.Builder<E>	addAll(Iterable<? extends E> elements) Adds each element of elements to the ImmutableMultiset.
ImmutableMultiset.Builder<E>	addAll(Iterator<? extends E> elements) Adds each element of elements to the ImmutableMultiset.
ImmutableMultiset.Builder<E>	addCopies(E element, int occurrences) Adds a number of occurrences of an element to this ImmutableMultiset.
ImmutableMultiset<E>	build() Returns a newly-created ImmutableMultiset based on the contents of the Builder.
ImmutableMultiset.Builder<E>	setCount(E element, int count) Adds or removes the necessary occurrences of an element such that the element attains the desired count.

Constructor Detail

ImmutableMultiset.Builder

public ImmutableMultiset.Builder()

Creates a new builder. The returned builder is equivalent to the builder generated by ImmutableMultiset.builder().

Method Detail

add

public ImmutableMultiset.Builder<E> add(E element)

Adds element to the ImmutableMultiset.

Specified by:

add in class ImmutableCollection.Builder<E>

Parameters:

element - the element to add

Returns:

this Builder object

Throws:

NullPointerException - if element is null

addCopies

public ImmutableMultiset.Builder<E> addCopies(E element,
                                              int occurrences)

Adds a number of occurrences of an element to this ImmutableMultiset.

Parameters:

element - the element to add

occurrences - the number of occurrences of the element to add. May be zero, in which case no change will be made.

Returns:

this Builder object

Throws:

NullPointerException - if element is null

IllegalArgumentException - if occurrences is negative, or if this operation would result in more than Integer.MAX_VALUE occurrences of the element

setCount

public ImmutableMultiset.Builder<E> setCount(E element,
                                             int count)

Adds or removes the necessary occurrences of an element such that the element attains the desired count.

Parameters:

element - the element to add or remove occurrences of

count - the desired count of the element in this multiset

Returns:

this Builder object

Throws:

NullPointerException - if element is null

IllegalArgumentException - if count is negative

add

public ImmutableMultiset.Builder<E> add(E... elements)

Adds each element of elements to the ImmutableMultiset.

Overrides:

add in class ImmutableCollection.Builder<E>

Parameters:

elements - the elements to add

Returns:

this Builder object

Throws:

NullPointerException - if elements is null or contains a null element

addAll

public ImmutableMultiset.Builder<E> addAll(Iterable<? extends E> elements)

Adds each element of elements to the ImmutableMultiset.

Overrides:

addAll in class ImmutableCollection.Builder<E>

Parameters:

elements - the Iterable to add to the ImmutableMultiset

Returns:

this Builder object

Throws:

NullPointerException - if elements is null or contains a null element

addAll

public ImmutableMultiset.Builder<E> addAll(Iterator<? extends E> elements)

Adds each element of elements to the ImmutableMultiset.

Overrides:

addAll in class ImmutableCollection.Builder<E>

Parameters:

elements - the elements to add to the ImmutableMultiset

Returns:

this Builder object

Throws:

NullPointerException - if elements is null or contains a null element

build

public ImmutableMultiset<E> build()

Returns a newly-created ImmutableMultiset based on the contents of the Builder.

Specified by:

build in class ImmutableCollection.Builder<E>
