This may be silly question. but i want to know there is some possibility to do this.
Suppose I have interface like
public interface GroupIdentifier {
Integer getRevision();
}
And I need another method named as getNextRevision. So what i can do is, implement default method inside same interface and return next number.
EX :
public interface GroupIdentifier {
//OUTER GET REVISION
Integer getRevision();
default GroupIdentifier getNextRevisionIdentifier() {
return new GroupIdentifier() {
//INNER GET REVISION
public Integer getRevision() {
//Here I want to return OUTER GET REVISION + 1
return null;
}
};
}
}
Is there some possibility to this.
I have fixed my solution as below.
public interface GroupIdentifier {
Integer getRevision();
default GroupIdentifier getNextRevisionIdentifier(GroupIdentifier identifier) {
return new GroupIdentifier() {
@Override
public Integer getRevision() {
return identifier.getRevision() + 1;
}
};
}
}
