net.bmahe.genetics4j.gp.ImmutableInputSpec.Builder

Enclosing class:

ImmutableInputSpec

public static final class ImmutableInputSpec.Builder
extends Object

Builds instances of type ImmutableInputSpec. Initialize attributes and then invoke the build() method to create an immutable instance.

Builder is not thread-safe and generally should not be stored in a field or collection, but instead used immediately to create instances.

Adds one element to types list.

Parameters:

element - A types element

Returns:

this builder for use in a chained invocation

addTypes

public final ImmutableInputSpec.Builder addTypes(Class... elements)

Adds elements to types list.

Parameters:

elements - An array of types elements

Returns:

this builder for use in a chained invocation

types

public final ImmutableInputSpec.Builder types(Iterable<? extends Class> elements)

Sets or replaces all elements for types list.

Parameters:

elements - An iterable of types elements
