## org.apache.jorphan.collections
Class SearchByClass<T>

    java.lang.Object
      org.apache.jorphan.collections.SearchByClass<T>

All Implemented Interfaces:
  HashTreeTraverser

    public class SearchByClass<T>

extends Object
implements HashTreeTraverser

Useful for finding all nodes in the tree that represent objects of a particular type. For instance, if your tree contains all strings, and a few StringBuilder objects, you can use the SearchByClass traverser to find all the StringBuilder objects in your tree.

Usage is simple. Given a `HashTree` object "tree", and a SearchByClass object:

     HashTree tree = new HashTree();
     // ... tree gets filled with objects
     SearchByClass searcher = new SearchByClass(StringBuilder.class);
     tree.traverse(searcher);
     Iterator iter = searcher.getSearchResults().iterator();
     while (iter.hasNext()) {
      StringBuilder foundNode = (StringBuilder) iter.next();
      HashTree subTreeOfFoundNode = searcher.getSubTree(foundNode);
      //  .... do something with node and subTree...
     }

Constructor Summary
`SearchByClass(Class<T> searchClass)` Creates an instance of SearchByClass, and sets the Class to be searched for.

Method Summary
`void` | `addNode(Object node, HashTree subTree)` The tree traverses itself depth-first, calling addNode for each object it encounters as it goes.
`Collection<T>` | `getSearchResults()` After traversing the HashTree, call this method to get a collection of the nodes that were found.
`HashTree` | `getSubTree(Object root)` Given a specific found node, this method will return the sub tree of that node.
`void` | `processPath()` Process path is called when a leaf is reached.
`void` | `subtractNode()` Indicates traversal has moved up a step, and the visitor should remove the top node from its stack structure.

Constructor Detail

### SearchByClass

    public SearchByClass(Class<T> searchClass)

  Creates an instance of SearchByClass, and sets the Class to be searched for.

  Parameters:
    `searchClass` -

Method Detail

### getSearchResults

    public Collection<T> getSearchResults()

  After traversing the HashTree, call this method to get a collection of the nodes that were found.

  Returns:
    Collection All found nodes of the requested type

### getSubTree

    public HashTree getSubTree(Object root)

  Given a specific found node, this method will return the sub tree of that node.

  Parameters:
    `root` - the node for which the sub tree is requested
  Returns:
    HashTree

### addNode

    public void addNode(Object node,
                        HashTree subTree)

  The tree traverses itself depth-first, calling addNode for each object it encounters as it goes. This is a callback method, and should not be called except by a HashTree during traversal.

  Specified by:
    `addNode` in interface `HashTreeTraverser`
  Parameters:
    `node` - the node currently encountered
    `subTree` - the HashTree under the node encountered

### subtractNode

    public void subtractNode()

  Indicates traversal has moved up a step, and the visitor should remove the top node from its stack structure. This is a callback method, and should not be called except by a HashTree during traversal.

  Specified by:
    `subtractNode` in interface `HashTreeTraverser`

### processPath

    public void processPath()

  Process path is called when a leaf is reached. If a visitor wishes to generate Lists of path elements to each leaf, it should keep a Stack data structure of nodes passed to it with addNode, and removing top items for every `HashTreeTraverser.subtractNode()` call. This is a callback method, and should not be called except by a HashTree during traversal.

  Specified by:
    `processPath` in interface `HashTreeTraverser`
