Method Detail

getInstance

public static JSONInstanceHandler getInstance()

writeWorld

public void writeWorld(World world)

Description copied from class: InstanceHandler

Specified by:

writeWorld in class InstanceHandler

Parameters:

world - the world to be written

writeBidder

public void writeBidder(Bidder<?> bidder)

Description copied from class: InstanceHandler

Writes a new bidder instance. If a bidder with the same world and population id already is stored, it might be overwritten.

Specified by:

writeBidder in class InstanceHandler

Parameters:

bidder - the bidder to be written

getPopulationIds

public Collection<Long> getPopulationIds(long worldId)

Specified by:

getPopulationIds in class InstanceHandler

Returns:

A collection containing all ids of the stored population for the requested world
