Agree with enforcing contracts, but IMHO it would be a safer construct
to throw an IllegalStateException if the manager is already set instead
of silently ignoring it.
For this purpose, I have an ImmutablePropertyException (see attached
file) that automates this check in one line. You just have to write :
public void Compose(ComponentManager manager)
{
ImmutableProperyException.check(this.manager, manager, "Manager
already set");
this.manager = manager;
}
I'd be happy if this utility class could make its way into Avalon (but
where : framework, excalibur ?)
