将类作为方法中的参数传递，并在If语句中使用此参数

Question

I would like to have something like this:

public static List<Type> getProtocolls(Class clazz, Transaction trx) {
    Iterator<Type> iterator = trx.getContext().getProtocolls()
    List<Type> list = null;
    while (iterator.hasNext()) {
        if (iterator.next() instanceof clazz) {
            list.add(iterator.next())
        }       
    }
    return list;
}

I am talking mainly about this part: (iterator.next() instanceof clazz) - is this even possible to pass Class as a parameter like this? Eclipse says "clazz cannot be resolved to a type".

Answer 1

You could use the isAssignableFrom method. Also, note you have two calls to next() in the loop, so you'll be skipping half the elements - you should extract the result of this call to a local variable:

while (iterator.hasNext()) {
    Type t = iterator.next();
    if (clazz.isAssignableFrom(t.getClass())) {
        list.add(t)
    }       
}

EDIT:
As @Fildor noted in the comments, you also forgot to initialized list . Instead of initializing to null list you currently have, you should have something down the lines of List<Type> list = new LinkedList<>(); .

Answer 2

You have mention the reference but you have to use the Class there :-

public static List<Type> getProtocolls(Class clazz, Transaction trx) {
    Iterator<Type> iterator = trx.getContext().getProtocolls()
    List<Type> list = null;
    while (iterator.hasNext()) {
        if (iterator.next() instanceof Class ) {
            list.add(iterator.next())
        }       
    }
    return list;
}
