Method Detail

getImpl

public static ApplyCommand getImpl()

addCommands

public void addCommands(java.util.Map commands,
                        CommandList list)

Description copied from interface: BuiltInCommand

Tells the Command to add the commands that it wants to implement into the passed data structure.

Specified by:

addCommands in interface BuiltInCommand

Parameters:

commands - a Map whose keys are commands, and whose values are Commands that handle those commands.

list - the CommandList the Command is being added to.

knowsCommand

public boolean knowsCommand(java.lang.String command)

Description copied from interface: Command

Returns true if this Command wants to handle the command. The Command can examine the arguments and determine that it doesn't actually understand the command, in which case it should return false.

This method exists to allow more than one game object to implement the same command verb, but with different expected arguments.

If two objects register for the same command and the same arguments, the object that was registered most recently gets to handle at the command.

Specified by:

knowsCommand in interface Command

Parameters:

command - the entire command string, including arguments

Returns:

true if we want to handle the command

createEvent

public CommandEvent createEvent(CommandEvent initial)

Implements Command.createEvent()

Specified by:

createEvent in interface Command

Parameters:

initial - the initial, raw event

Returns:

a TargetedEvent with the apply-target set (getTarget()), and a "notFoundMsg" set to "There is nothing to apply here.".

execute

public boolean execute(CommandEvent e)

Description copied from interface: Command

Executes the specified CommandEvent. The CommandEvent contains all the parameters and state required to execute the command; the parameters have been filtered through hook objects, so they may not be the same as when the event was created.

Specified by:

execute in interface Command

Parameters:

e - the CommandEvent to execute

Returns:

true if the event completed successfully, else false.
