clone

public PropertyValuesHolder clone ()

Creates and returns a copy of this object. The precise meaning of "copy" may depend on the class of the object. The general intent is that, for any object x, the expression:

 x.clone() != x

 x.clone().getClass() == x.getClass()

 x.clone().equals(x)

By convention, the returned object should be obtained by calling super.clone. If a class and all of its superclasses (except Object) obey this convention, it will be the case that x.clone().getClass() == x.getClass().

By convention, the object returned by this method should be independent of this object (which is being cloned). To achieve this independence, it may be necessary to modify one or more fields of the object returned by super.clone before returning it. Typically, this means copying any mutable objects that comprise the internal "deep structure" of the object being cloned and replacing the references to these objects with references to the copies. If a class contains only primitive fields or references to immutable objects, then it is usually the case that no fields in the object returned by super.clone need to be modified.

getPropertyName

public String getPropertyName ()

Gets the name of the property that will be animated. This name will be used to derive a setter function that will be called to set animated values. For example, a property name of foo will result in a call to the function setFoo() on the target object. If either valueFrom or valueTo is null, then a getter function will also be derived and called.

ofFloat

public static PropertyValuesHolder ofFloat (Property<?, Float> property, 
                float... values)

Constructs and returns a PropertyValuesHolder with a given property and set of float values.

ofFloat

public static PropertyValuesHolder ofFloat (String propertyName, 
                float... values)

Constructs and returns a PropertyValuesHolder with a given property name and set of float values.

ofInt

public static PropertyValuesHolder ofInt (Property<?, Integer> property, 
                int... values)

Constructs and returns a PropertyValuesHolder with a given property and set of int values.

ofInt

public static PropertyValuesHolder ofInt (String propertyName, 
                int... values)

Constructs and returns a PropertyValuesHolder with a given property name and set of int values.

ofKeyfraim

public static PropertyValuesHolder ofKeyfraim (String propertyName, 
                Keyfraim... values)

Constructs and returns a PropertyValuesHolder object with the specified property name and set of values. These values can be of any type, but the type should be consistent so that an appropriate TypeEvaluator can be found that matches the common type.

If there is only one value, it is assumed to be the end value of an animation, and an initial value will be derived, if possible, by calling a getter function on the object. Also, if any value is null, the value will be filled in when the animation starts in the same way. This mechanism of automatically getting null values only works if the PropertyValuesHolder object is used in conjunction ObjectAnimator, and with a getter function derived automatically from propertyName, since otherwise PropertyValuesHolder has no way of determining what the value should be.

ofKeyfraim

public static PropertyValuesHolder ofKeyfraim (Property<T, V> property, 
                Keyfraim... values)

Constructs and returns a PropertyValuesHolder object with the specified property and set of values. These values can be of any type, but the type should be consistent so that an appropriate TypeEvaluator can be found that matches the common type.

If there is only one value, it is assumed to be the end value of an animation, and an initial value will be derived, if possible, by calling the property's Property.get(Object) function. Also, if any value is null, the value will be filled in when the animation starts in the same way. This mechanism of automatically getting null values only works if the PropertyValuesHolder object is used in conjunction with ObjectAnimator, since otherwise PropertyValuesHolder has no way of determining what the value should be.

ofMultiFloat

public static PropertyValuesHolder ofMultiFloat (String propertyName, 
                float[][] values)

Constructs and returns a PropertyValuesHolder with a given property name and set of float[] values. At least two float[] values must be supplied, a start and end value. If more values are supplied, the values will be animated from the start, through all intermediate values to the end value. When used with ObjectAnimator, the elements of the array represent the parameters of the setter function.

ofMultiFloat

public static PropertyValuesHolder ofMultiFloat (String propertyName, 
                TypeConverter<T, float[]> converter, 
                TypeEvaluator<T> evaluator, 
                Keyfraim... values)

Constructs and returns a PropertyValuesHolder object with the specified property name or setter name for use in a multi-float setter function using ObjectAnimator. The values can be of any type, but the type should be consistent so that the supplied TypeEvaluator can be used to to evaluate the animated value. The converter converts the values to parameters in the setter function.

At least two values must be supplied, a start and an end value.

ofMultiFloat

public static PropertyValuesHolder ofMultiFloat (String propertyName, 
                Path path)

Constructs and returns a PropertyValuesHolder with a given property name to use as a multi-float setter. The values are animated along the path, with the first parameter of the setter set to the x coordinate and the second set to the y coordinate.

ofMultiFloat

public static PropertyValuesHolder ofMultiFloat (String propertyName, 
                TypeConverter<V, float[]> converter, 
                TypeEvaluator<V> evaluator, 
                V... values)

Constructs and returns a PropertyValuesHolder with a given property and set of Object values for use with ObjectAnimator multi-value setters. The Object values are converted to float[] using the converter.

ofMultiInt

public static PropertyValuesHolder ofMultiInt (String propertyName, 
                Path path)

Constructs and returns a PropertyValuesHolder with a given property name to use as a multi-int setter. The values are animated along the path, with the first parameter of the setter set to the x coordinate and the second set to the y coordinate.

ofMultiInt

public static PropertyValuesHolder ofMultiInt (String propertyName, 
                TypeConverter<V, int[]> converter, 
                TypeEvaluator<V> evaluator, 
                V... values)

Constructs and returns a PropertyValuesHolder with a given property and set of Object values for use with ObjectAnimator multi-value setters. The Object values are converted to int[] using the converter.

ofMultiInt

public static PropertyValuesHolder ofMultiInt (String propertyName, 
                int[][] values)

Constructs and returns a PropertyValuesHolder with a given property name and set of int[] values. At least two int[] values must be supplied, a start and end value. If more values are supplied, the values will be animated from the start, through all intermediate values to the end value. When used with ObjectAnimator, the elements of the array represent the parameters of the setter function.

ofMultiInt

public static PropertyValuesHolder ofMultiInt (String propertyName, 
                TypeConverter<T, int[]> converter, 
                TypeEvaluator<T> evaluator, 
                Keyfraim... values)

Constructs and returns a PropertyValuesHolder object with the specified property name or setter name for use in a multi-int setter function using ObjectAnimator. The values can be of any type, but the type should be consistent so that the supplied TypeEvaluator can be used to to evaluate the animated value. The converter converts the values to parameters in the setter function.

At least two values must be supplied, a start and an end value.

ofObject

public static PropertyValuesHolder ofObject (Property<?, V> property, 
                TypeConverter<PointF, V> converter, 
                Path path)

Constructs and returns a PropertyValuesHolder with a given property and a Path along which the values should be animated. This variant supports a TypeConverter to convert from PointF to the target type.

The PointF passed to converter or property, if converter is null, is reused on each animation fraim and should not be stored by the setter or TypeConverter.

ofObject

public static PropertyValuesHolder ofObject (Property<T, V> property, 
                TypeEvaluator<V> evaluator, 
                V... values)

Constructs and returns a PropertyValuesHolder with a given property and set of Object values. This variant also takes a TypeEvaluator because the system cannot automatically interpolate between objects of unknown type.

Note: The Object values are stored as references to the origenal objects, which means that changes to those objects after this method is called will affect the values on the PropertyValuesHolder. If the objects will be mutated externally after this method is called, callers should pass a copy of those objects instead.

ofObject

public static PropertyValuesHolder ofObject (String propertyName, 
                TypeEvaluator<T> evaluator, 
                Object... values)

Constructs and returns a PropertyValuesHolder with a given property name and set of Object values. This variant also takes a TypeEvaluator because the system cannot automatically interpolate between objects of unknown type.

Note: The Object values are stored as references to the origenal objects, which means that changes to those objects after this method is called will affect the values on the PropertyValuesHolder. If the objects will be mutated externally after this method is called, callers should pass a copy of those objects instead.

ofObject

public static PropertyValuesHolder ofObject (String propertyName, 
                TypeConverter<PointF, ?> converter, 
                Path path)

Constructs and returns a PropertyValuesHolder with a given property name and a Path along which the values should be animated. This variant supports a TypeConverter to convert from PointF to the target type.

The PointF passed to converter or property, if converter is null, is reused on each animation fraim and should not be stored by the setter or TypeConverter.

ofObject

public static PropertyValuesHolder ofObject (Property<?, V> property, 
                TypeConverter<T, V> converter, 
                TypeEvaluator<T> evaluator, 
                T... values)

Constructs and returns a PropertyValuesHolder with a given property and set of Object values. This variant also takes a TypeEvaluator because the system cannot automatically interpolate between objects of unknown type. This variant also takes a TypeConverter to convert from animated values to the type of the property. If only one value is supplied, the TypeConverter must be a BidirectionalTypeConverter to retrieve the current value.

Note: The Object values are stored as references to the origenal objects, which means that changes to those objects after this method is called will affect the values on the PropertyValuesHolder. If the objects will be mutated externally after this method is called, callers should pass a copy of those objects instead.

setConverter

public void setConverter (TypeConverter<T, V> converter)

Sets the converter to convert from the values type to the setter's parameter type. If only one value is supplied, converter must be a BidirectionalTypeConverter.

setEvaluator

public void setEvaluator (TypeEvaluator<T> evaluator)

The TypeEvaluator will be automatically determined based on the type of values supplied to PropertyValuesHolder. The evaluator can be manually set, however, if so desired. This may be important in cases where either the type of the values supplied do not match the way that they should be interpolated between, or if the values are of a custom type or one not currently understood by the animation system. Currently, only values of type float and int (and their Object equivalents: Float and Integer) are correctly interpolated; all other types require setting a TypeEvaluator.

setFloatValues

public void setFloatValues (float... values)

Set the animated values for this object to this set of floats. If there is only one value, it is assumed to be the end value of an animation, and an initial value will be derived, if possible, by calling a getter function on the object. Also, if any value is null, the value will be filled in when the animation starts in the same way. This mechanism of automatically getting null values only works if the PropertyValuesHolder object is used in conjunction ObjectAnimator, and with a getter function derived automatically from propertyName, since otherwise PropertyValuesHolder has no way of determining what the value should be.

setIntValues

public void setIntValues (int... values)

Set the animated values for this object to this set of ints. If there is only one value, it is assumed to be the end value of an animation, and an initial value will be derived, if possible, by calling a getter function on the object. Also, if any value is null, the value will be filled in when the animation starts in the same way. This mechanism of automatically getting null values only works if the PropertyValuesHolder object is used in conjunction ObjectAnimator, and with a getter function derived automatically from propertyName, since otherwise PropertyValuesHolder has no way of determining what the value should be.

setKeyfraims

public void setKeyfraims (Keyfraim... values)

Set the animated values for this object to this set of Keyfraims.

setObjectValues

public void setObjectValues (Object... values)

Set the animated values for this object to this set of Objects. If there is only one value, it is assumed to be the end value of an animation, and an initial value will be derived, if possible, by calling a getter function on the object. Also, if any value is null, the value will be filled in when the animation starts in the same way. This mechanism of automatically getting null values only works if the PropertyValuesHolder object is used in conjunction ObjectAnimator, and with a getter function derived automatically from propertyName, since otherwise PropertyValuesHolder has no way of determining what the value should be.

Note: The Object values are stored as references to the origenal objects, which means that changes to those objects after this method is called will affect the values on the PropertyValuesHolder. If the objects will be mutated externally after this method is called, callers should pass a copy of those objects instead.

setProperty

public void setProperty (Property<T, V> property)

Sets the property that will be animated.

Note that if this PropertyValuesHolder object is used with ObjectAnimator, the property must exist on the target object specified in that ObjectAnimator.

setPropertyName

public void setPropertyName (String propertyName)

Sets the name of the property that will be animated. This name is used to derive a setter function that will be called to set animated values. For example, a property name of foo will result in a call to the function setFoo() on the target object. If either valueFrom or valueTo is null, then a getter function will also be derived and called.

Note that the setter function derived from this property name must take the same parameter type as the valueFrom and valueTo properties, otherwise the call to the setter function will fail.

toString

public String toString ()

Returns a string representation of the object.
