AutoValue —— Generated immutable value classes

本文参考

在《Effective Java》第三版第十条"Obey the general contract when overriding equals"中提到google的AutoValue框架能够自动生成equals()方法，实际上这个框架的作用不仅仅限于生成equals()方法那么简单，它还能够使值类通过静态工厂方法构建实例，并实现Builder构建者模式，省去了程序员对值类的重复性工作

环境

idea 2020.1 + AutoValue 1.7.1

Maven配置

我们需要同时配置auto-value-annotations和auto-value两个dependency

<dependency>
<groupId>com.google.auto.value</groupId>
<artifactId>auto-value-annotations</artifactId>
<version>1.7.1</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

<dependency>
<groupId>com.google.auto.value</groupId>
<artifactId>auto-value</artifactId>
<version>1.7.1</version>
<optional>true</optional>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

Idea配置

在Build,Execution,Deployment -> Complier -> Annotation Processor中勾选Enable annotation processing

默认的Production source directory和Test sources directory不需要更改

基本用法

如下代码所示，构造Person抽象类，create()静态工厂方法，和抽象的字段方法

@AutoValue
abstract class Person {

abstract String getName();

abstract int getAge();

static Person create(String name, int age) {

return new AutoValue_Person(name, age);
}
}

此时显然还没有AutoValue_Person这个类（固定的前缀写法），因此idea会报错，但是我们暂时不用担心这个问题

编写一个简单的测试类，测试方法如下

@Test
public void test() {

Person person = Person.create("kuluo", 18);

assertEquals("kuluo", person.name());
}

可以先对源代码进行编译而不运行，编译结束后可以看到AutoValue_Person的报错消失

我们可以在默认的target\generated-sources\annotations或target\generated-test-sources\test-annotations文件夹中看到生成的值类

@Generated("com.google.auto.value.processor.AutoValueProcessor")
final class AutoValue_Person extends Person {

private final String name;

private final int age;

AutoValue_Person(String name, int age) {

if (name == null) {

throw new NullPointerException("Null name");
}

this.name = name;

this.age = age;
}

@Override

String getName() {

return name;
}

@Override

int getAge() {

return age;
}

@Override

public String toString() {

return "Person{"

+ "name=" + name + ", "

+ "age=" + age

+ "}";
}

@Override

public boolean equals(Object o) {

if (o == this) {

return true;
}

if (o instanceof Person) {

Person that = (Person) o;

return this.name.equals(that.name()) && this.age == that.age();
}

return false;
}

@Override

public int hashCode() {

int h$ = 1;

h$ *= 1000003;

h$ ^= name.hashCode();

h$ *= 1000003;

h$ ^= age;

return h$;
}
}

注意：

值类被声明为final类型，无法再被继承

值类不具备setter方法，实例被创建后就无法被更改

若在构造实例时允许传入可变类型的值，如List<String>和String[]，则需要在Guava中选择对应的不可变类型，并更改create()静态工厂方法

check if the mutable type has a corresponding immutable cousin. For example, the types List<String> and String[] have the immutable counterpart ImmutableList<String> in Guava. If so, use the immutable type for your property, and only accept the mutable type during construction

@AutoValue
abstract class Person {

abstract ImmutableList<String> getName();

abstract int getAge();

static Person create(List<String> name, int age) {

return new AutoValue_Person(ImmutableList.copyOf(name), age);
}
}

值类在构建实例时会检查每一个字段是否为null，若某字段为null，则抛出空指针异常

若允许某个字段为null，则必须在抽象类create()静态工厂方法的声明中，为该字段和它对应的getter方法同时添加@Nullable注解

if @Nullable is only added to the parameter in create (or similarly the setter method of AutoValue.Builder), but not the corresponding accessor method, it won't have any effect.

@AutoValue
abstract class Person {

@Nullable abstract String getName();

abstract int getAge();

static Person create(@Nullable String name, int age) {

return new AutoValue_Person(name, age);
}
}

下面仅展示发生变化的方法，我们可以看到在equals()方法和hashCode()方法中也自动增加了对null的判断

AutoValue_Person(@Nullable String name, int age) {

this.name = name;

this.age = age;
}

@Nullable
@Override

String getName() {

return name;
}

@Override

public boolean equals(Object o) {

if (o == this) {

return true;
}

if (o instanceof Person) {

Person that = (Person) o;

return (this.name == null ? that.getName() == null : this.name.equals(that.getName()))

&& this.age == that.getAge();
}

return false;
}

@Override

public int hashCode() {

int h$ = 1;

h$ *= 1000003;

h$ ^= (name == null) ? 0 : name.hashCode();

h$ *= 1000003;

h$ ^= age;

return h$;
}

Builder构建者模式用法

涉及抽象静态内部类Builder，并为它添加@AutoValue.Builder注解

@AutoValue
abstract class PersonWithBuilder {

abstract String getName();

abstract int getAge();

static Builder builder() {

return new AutoValue_PersonWithBuilder.Builder();
}

@AutoValue.Builder

abstract static class Builder {

abstract Builder name(String name);

abstract Builder age(int age);

abstract PersonWithBuilder build();
}
}

编写一个简单的测试类，测试代码如下：

@Test
public void testWithBuilder() {

PersonWithBuilder personWithBuilder = PersonWithBuilder

.builder()
.name("kuluo")
.age(18)
.build();

assertEquals("kuluo", personWithBuilder.getName());

assertEquals(18, personWithBuilder.getAge());
}

编译运行后生成AutoValue_PersonWithBuilder类

@Generated("com.google.auto.value.processor.AutoValueProcessor")
final class AutoValue_PersonWithBuilder extends PersonWithBuilder {

private final String name;

private final int age;

private AutoValue_PersonWithBuilder(String name, int age) {

this.name = name;

this.age = age;
}

@Override

String getName() { return name; }

@Override

int getAge() { return age; }

@Override

public String toString() {

return "PersonWithBuilder{"

+ "name=" + name + ", "

+ "age=" + age

+ "}";
}

@Override

public boolean equals(Object o) {

if (o == this) { return true; }

if (o instanceof PersonWithBuilder) {

PersonWithBuilder that = (PersonWithBuilder) o;

return this.name.equals(that.getName()) && this.age == that.getAge();
}

return false;
}

@Override

public int hashCode() {

int h$ = 1;

h$ *= 1000003;

h$ ^= name.hashCode();

h$ *= 1000003;

h$ ^= age;

return h$;
}

static final class Builder extends PersonWithBuilder.Builder {

private String name;

private Integer age;

Builder() {
}

@Override

PersonWithBuilder.Builder name(String name) {

if (name == null) {

throw new NullPointerException("Null name");
}

this.name = name;

return this;
}

@Override

PersonWithBuilder.Builder age(int age) {

this.age = age;

return this;
}

@Override

PersonWithBuilder build() {

String missing = "";

if (this.name == null) {

missing += " name";
}

if (this.age == null) {

missing += " age";
}
if (!missing.isEmpty()) {
throw new IllegalStateException("Missing required properties:" + missing);
}
return new AutoValue_PersonWithBuilder(this.name, this.age);
}
}
}

注意：

值类在构建实例时会在build()方法内检查每一个字段是否为null，若某字段为null，则抛出空指针异常

若允许某个字段为null，则必须同时在抽象静态内部类的"setter"方法的形参和外侧的"getter"方法同时添加@Nullable注解

@AutoValue
abstract class PersonWithBuilder {

@Nullable abstract String getName();

abstract int getAge();

static Builder builder() {

return new AutoValue_PersonWithBuilder.Builder();
}

@AutoValue.Builder

abstract static class Builder {

abstract Builder name(@Nullable String name);

abstract Builder age(int age);

abstract PersonWithBuilder build();
}
}

我们可以在生成的AutoValue_PersonWithBuilder类中看到已经没有了对name的null判断

@Override
PersonWithBuilder build() {

String missing = "";

if (this.age == null) {

missing += " age";
}

if (!missing.isEmpty()) {

throw new IllegalStateException("Missing required properties:" + missing);
}

return new AutoValue_PersonWithBuilder(this.name, this.age);
}

若需要为某字段设置默认值，仅需在builder()方法中调用Builder的"setter"方法

@AutoValue
abstract class PersonWithBuilder {

abstract String getName();

abstract int getAge();

static Builder builder() {

return new AutoValue_PersonWithBuilder.Builder().name("kuluo");
}

@AutoValue.Builder

abstract static class Builder {

abstract Builder name(String name);

abstract Builder age(int age);

abstract PersonWithBuilder build();
}
}

使用Builder模式后会屏蔽静态工厂方法，若一定要使用静态工厂方法，则需要在静态工厂方法内调用Builder静态内部类来创建实例，而不是私有的构造方法
