More specifically, I have:
case class Key (key: String)
abstract class abstr {
type MethodMap = PartialFunction[Key, String => Unit]
def myMap: MethodMap // abstract
def useIt (key: Key, value: String) = {
val meth = myMap(key)
meth(value)
}
def report = {
for (key <- myMap.keySet) // how to do this
println("I support "+key)
}
}
I use it like this:
class concrete extends abstr {
var one: Boolean
def method1(v: String): Unit = ???
def method2(v: String): Unit = ???
def map1: MethodMap = {
case Key("AAA") => method1
}
def map2: MethodMap = {
case Key("AAA") => method2
}
override def myMap: MethodMap = if (one) map1 else map2
}
Of course, this is somewhat simplified, but the report function is necessary.
Some history: I first had it implemented using Map
but then I changed it to PartialFunction
in order to support the following override def myMap: MethodMap = if (one) map1 else map2
.
Any suggestion to refactor my code to support everything is also appreciated.
