Annotation Interface OnDeactivate

@Documented @Target(METHOD) public @interface OnDeactivate
Identifies method that is called when the ComputableValue changes to the INACTIVE state from any other state.

This method can only be associated with a Memoize annotated method that has 0 parameters. This limitation is in place to limit implementation complexity and because no use case for this functionality has been found.

The method must also conform to the following constraints:

  • Must not be annotated with any other arez annotation
  • Must have 0 parameters
  • Must not return a value
  • Must not be private
  • Must not be static
  • Must not be abstract
  • Must not throw exceptions
  • Must not be for a Memoize method that has the Memoize.keepAlive() parameter set to true
  • Must be accessible to the class annotated by the ArezComponent annotation.
  • Should not be public as not expected to be invoked outside the component. A warning will be generated but can be suppressed by the SuppressWarnings or SuppressArezWarnings annotations with a key "Arez:PublicHookMethod". This warning is also suppressed by the annotation processor if it is implementing an interface method.
  • Should not be protected if in the class annotated with the ArezComponent annotation as the method is not expected to be invoked outside the component. A warning will be generated but can be suppressed by the SuppressWarnings or SuppressArezWarnings annotations with a key "Arez:ProtectedMethod".
