protected void clearChanged()
Parameters
NA
Return Value
NA
Exception
NA
Example
The following example shows the usage of java.util.Observable.clearChanged() method.
package com.tutorialspoint; import java.util.Observable; import java.util.Observer; class ObservedObject extends Observable { private String watchedValue; public ObservedObject(String value) { watchedValue = value; } public void setValue(String value) { // if value has changed notify observers if(!watchedValue.equals(value)) { watchedValue = value; // mark as value changed setChanged(); } } public void resetValue() { // reset value changed flag clearChanged(); } } public class ObservableDemo implements Observer { public String name; public ObservableDemo(String name) { this.name = name; } public static void main(String[] args) { // create watched and watcher objects ObservedObject watched = new ObservedObject("Original Value"); // watcher object listens to object change ObservableDemo watcher = new ObservableDemo("Watcher"); // add observer to the watched object watched.addObserver(watcher); // trigger value change System.out.println("setValue method called..."); watched.setValue("New Value"); // check if value has changed if(watched.hasChanged()) System.out.println("Value changed"); else System.out.println("Value not changed"); // trigger reset System.out.println("resetValue method called..."); watched.resetValue(); // check if value has changed if(watched.hasChanged()) System.out.println("Value changed"); else System.out.println("Value not changed"); } public void update(Observable obj, Object arg) { System.out.println("Update called"); } }
Let us compile and run the above program, this will produce the following result −
setValue method called... Value changed resetValue method called... Value not changed
