Annotation Type NotYetImplemented
-
@Documented @Target({METHOD,CONSTRUCTOR}) @Retention(RUNTIME) public @interface NotYetImplemented
Eclipse and other tools will generate default implementation for you if you want to implement an interface. The problem with this implementation is that you must always overwrite this default implementation.To be able to mark these methods as "not yet finished" you can put this annotation in front of it. If you add a text this text is used for thrown UnsupportedOperationException. You can add "{0}" if you want to see the method name in the exception e.g.
@NotYetImplemented("don''t call {0} today")
.NOTE: a single quote must be written as "''" (see example above) because java.text.MessageFormat is used here for the error message.
See patterntesting.sample.Fraction in PatternTesting Samples as an example how to use it.
