java annotations - small prog

[sebo]

i've got some test-prog to write using annotations, there are some guidelines how it has to look like, so here they are:

i have to define @Bind annotation which used for chosen fields of a class let me add their values to a map behind the keys = variable names.

The process of adding and getting values to/from the map has to find his place in another class called Binder.

i'm new in java things so..... :(

things i must follow:
-----------------------

public class Test {
@Bind static double a;
@Bind static double b;
double static c;

somwhere in a method:
a = 7;
b = 12;
c = 1;

in some method of a constructor:
Binder bdr = new Binder(...)
bdr.bind();

somwhere else:
Map<..> map = bdr.getMap();

and using 'map' there should be a possibility to access the values of 'a' and 'b', but not the 'c'.

It seems to be very easy, but not for me, not now... can anyone help me to do this so i can be able to work on other things like that... thx in advance!

Do you have any code for your problem?

Can you show how you define the annotations.

k, so if i'm right there should be an apart class for the annotation:

public @interface Bind {
//and because i'm not experienced i'm not sure if there is sth needed here ?
}

my test-class, not sure if correct:

public class Test {
	
	@Bind static double a;
	@Bind static double b;
	static double c;

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		setValues();
		Binder bdr = new Binder(a,b,c);
		bdr.bind();
		
		Map<Integer,double> map = new HashMap<Integer,double>();
		map = bdr.getMap();
		
		//some for-each to get these values
	}
	
	private static void setValues() {
		a = 7;
		b = 12;
		c = 1;
	}		
}

but i still don't know how should exactly my Binder-class look like in order to add and get those values.... just to be honest - dnt know how it exactly works :(

public class Binder {
	
	public Binder(double a, double b, double c) {
		// TODO
	}
	
	public void bind() {
		// TODO 		
	}

	public Map<Integer, Integer> getMap() {
		// TODO 
		return null;
	}
}

any help now?

anybody ...?

I really mess with your question now. Are you talking about the Binder class method functionality or annotations? Can you explain it little more.
