addReferenceResolver(referenceResolver:IReferenceResolver):void
This method adds a reference resolver that will be used to resolve property
references.

|
clearObjectFromInternalCache(name:String):Object
Removes an object from the internal object definition cache.
| IObjectFactory | ||
|
containsObject(objectName:String):Boolean

| IObjectFactory | ||
|
getObject(name:String, constructorArguments:Array = null):*
Will retrieve an object by it's name/id If the definition is a singleton it will be retrieved from
cache if possible.
| IObjectFactory | ||
|

Returns the type that is defined on the object definition.

public function addReferenceResolver(referenceResolver:IReferenceResolver):voidThis method adds a reference resolver that will be used to resolve property references.
ParametersreferenceResolver:IReferenceResolver — The implementation of IReferenceResolver that should be added

| clearObjectFromInternalCache | () | method |
public function clearObjectFromInternalCache(name:String):ObjectRemoves an object from the internal object definition cache. This cache is used to cache singletons.
Parametersname:String — The name/id of the object to remove
|
Object — the removed object
|
| containsObject | () | method |
public function containsObject(objectName:String):BooleanDetermines if the object factory contains a definition with the given name.
ParametersobjectName:String — The name/id of the object definition
|
Boolean — true if a definition with that name exists
|

| getObject | () | method |
public function getObject(name:String, constructorArguments:Array = null):*Will retrieve an object by it's name/id If the definition is a singleton it will be retrieved from cache if possible. If the definition defines an init method, the init method will be called after all properties have been set.
If any object post processors are defined they will be run against the newly created instance. The class that is instantiated can implement the following interfaces for a special treatment:IInitializingObject: The method defined by the interface will called after the
properties have been set
IFactoryObject: The actual object will be retrieved using the getObject method
name:String — The name of the object as defined in the object definition
|
|
constructorArguments:Array (default = null) |
* — An instance of the requested object
|
ObjectDefinitionNotFoundError — The name of the given object should be
present as an object definition
|
|
|
|
PropertyTypeError — The type of a property definition should
match the type of property on the instance
|
|
ClassNotFoundError — The class set on the definition should
be compiled into the application
|
|
ResolveReferenceError — Indicating a problem resolving the
references of a certain property

| getType | () | method |
public function getType(objectName:String):ClassReturns the type that is defined on the object definition.
ParametersobjectName:String — The name/id of the object definition
|
Class — the class that is used to construct the object
|

| isPrototype | () | method |
public function isPrototype(objectName:String):BooleanDetermines if the definition with the given name is a prototype.
ParametersobjectName:String — The name/id of the object definition
|
Boolean — true if the definitions is defined as a prototype
|

| isSingleton | () | method |
public function isSingleton(objectName:String):BooleanDetermines if the definition with the given name is a singleton.
ParametersobjectName:String — The name/id of the object definition
|
Boolean — true if the definitions is defined as a singleton

| resolveReference | () | method |
public function resolveReference(property:Object):ObjectResolves a property in an object definition. If the property could not be resolved, the given property is returned. This means that the property will be checked against all reference resolvers. If a reference resolver can process it, it will do so.
This method is used to resolve implementations of IObjectReference. In order to capture nested references container types like Array and Dictionary are checked as well. Parametersproperty:Object — the property that possibly that might contain references
