Method Detail

getClassName

public java.lang.String getClassName(java.lang.String prefix,
                                     java.lang.String source,
                                     java.lang.Object key,
                                     Predicate names)

Choose a name for a generated class.

Parameters:

prefix - a dotted-name chosen by the generating class (possibly to put the generated class in a particular package)

source - the fully-qualified class name of the generating class (for example "net.sf.cglib.Enhancer")

key - A key object representing the state of the parameters; for caching to work properly, equal keys should result in the same generated class name. The default policy incorporates key.hashCode() into the class name.

names - a predicate that returns true if the given classname has already been used in the same ClassLoader.

Returns:

the fully-qualified class name
