Avoid explicit cast while using the CamelContext.getEndpoint() or
ApplicationContext.getBean() API and better rely on the overloaded counterpart
of them taking a class type as the second argument (implicit cast)

Key: CAMEL-4765
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-4765
Project: Camel
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 2.9.0
Reporter: Babak Vahdat
Assignee: Babak Vahdat
Priority: Minor
Some simple change examples on the trunk are:
From:
{code}
jpaTemplate = (JpaTemplate)applicationContext.getBean("jpaTemplate");
{code}
To:
{code}
jpaTemplate = applicationContext.getBean("jpaTemplate", JpaTemplate.class);
{code}
Or
From:
{code}
HttpEndpoint epOut = (HttpEndpoint)
getContext().getEndpoint("http://localhost:" + port1 +
"?bridgeEndpoint=true&throwExceptionOnFailure=false");
{code}
To:
{code}
HttpEndpoint epOut = getContext().getEndpoint("http://localhost:" + port1 +
"?bridgeEndpoint=true&throwExceptionOnFailure=false", HttpEndpoint.class);
{code}
Here another one with the removal of @SuppressWarnings as a side effect:
From:
{code}
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
public <T> T lookup(Class<T> type) {
ApplicationContext context = getApplicationContext();
String[] names = context.getBeanNamesForType(type, true, true);
if (names != null) {
int count = names.length;
if (count == 1) {
// lets instantiate the single bean
return (T)context.getBean(names[0]);
} else if (count > 1) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Too many beans in the
application context of type: " + type + ". Found: " + count);
}
}
throw new IllegalArgumentException("No bean available in the
application context of type: " + type);
}
{code}
To:
{code}
public <T> T lookup(Class<T> type) {
ApplicationContext context = getApplicationContext();
String[] names = context.getBeanNamesForType(type, true, true);
if (names != null) {
int count = names.length;
if (count == 1) {
// lets instantiate the single bean
return context.getBean(names[0], type);
} else if (count > 1) {
throw new IllegalArgumentException("Too many beans in the
application context of type: " + type + ". Found: " + count);
}
}
throw new IllegalArgumentException("No bean available in the
application context of type: " + type);
}
{code}
There're also cases where we could make a huge benefit of this so that the
following code:
{code}
public <T> T getMandatoryBean(Class<T> type, String name) {
Object value = applicationContext.getBean(name);
assertNotNull("No spring bean found for name <" + name + ">", value);
if (type.isInstance(value)) {
return type.cast(value);
} else {
fail("Spring bean <" + name + "> is not an instanceof " +
type.getName() + " but is of type " + ObjectHelper.className(value));
return null;
}
}
{code}
becomes just a one liner as:
{code}
public <T> T getMandatoryBean(Class<T> type, String name) {
return applicationContext.getBean(name, type);
}
{code}
I also came across the cases where the prefered API indeed was used but there
were unneccessary casts around it:
From:
{code}
// must type cast to work with Spring 2.5.x
SpringCamelContext context = (SpringCamelContext)
applicationContext.getBeansOfType(SpringCamelContext.class).values().iterator().next();
{code}
To:
{code}
SpringCamelContext context =
applicationContext.getBeansOfType(SpringCamelContext.class).values().iterator().next();
{code}
Another benefit of this patch is a better test code coverage, because as one
would intuitively expect DefaultCamelContext.getEndpoint(String name, Class<T>
endpointType) makes use of DefaultCamelContext.getEndpoint(String uri)
before casting and returning the answer. So that now through the usage of the
first method API (expecting two parameters) we do call both of them while
testing (one explicitly and the other one implicitly)
There're 147 sources affected by the provided patch (one source change is just
a pre-existing checkstyle violation by HtmlToPdfMojo.java).
I did verify *only* the tests on camel-core but *not the rest* with the
following test result (Windows-Vista):
