Uses of HandlerLink in dk.rode.thesis.chainofresponsibility
 

Subinterfaces of HandlerLink in dk.rode.thesis.chainofresponsibility
 interface HandlerChain<R>
          A handler chain is an ordered list of handlers that will be passed a request in turn until the first applicable handler can handle it.
 

Classes in dk.rode.thesis.chainofresponsibility that implement HandlerLink
 class AbstractHandlerChain<R>
          An abstract handler chain implements the basic traits of the HandlerChain interface.
 class StandardHandlerChain<R>
          A standard handler chain is the standard implementation of the HandlerChain interface.
 class WeakHandlerChain<R>
          A weak handler chain is a thread-safe handler chain storing registered handlers as weak references.
 

Methods in dk.rode.thesis.chainofresponsibility with parameters of type HandlerLink
 Handler<Character> CharacterHandler.handle(Character character, HandlerLink<Character> link)
          Implements the semantics required for chaining character handlers so sub-classes do not have to.
 Handler<R> Handler.handle(R request, HandlerLink<R> link)
          Handles the request supplied as request or forwards it to the next handler in the chain represented by the handler link supplied as link, if any.
 Handler<R> AbstractHandlerChain.handle(R request, HandlerLink<R> link)
