Chapter 10 ■ Directing the Cast of Actors: Creating a Casting Director Engine and Creating the Bagel Actor Class
Figure 10-10. Mouse-over the yellow light bulb icon in the line number area of the pane and reveal the constructor tip
For the first final keyword that you click on, and Alt-Enter, and have NetBeans write your CastingDirector()
constructor method for, it will code the public CastingDirector(){...} structure for you, and add the first instantiation
statement. As you can see in Figure 10-11, once you click on each of the three final keywords at the top of your class
and use the same work process, you can have NetBeans write the entire constructor method for you. The Java code
that NetBeans generates uses the Java this keyword (so that the CastingDirector object can refer to itself) to preface
each of the three data store objects, as well as using the Java new keyword to create new instances of ArrayList and
HashSet should look like the following:
public CastingDirector() {
this.CURRENT_CAST = new ArrayList();
this.COLLIDE_CHECKLIST = new ArrayList();
this.REMOVED_ACTORS = new HashSet();
}
