java.util.ServiceLoader.Provider

Represents a service provider located by ServiceLoader.

When using a loader's stream() method then the elements are of type Provider. This allows processing to select or filter on the provider class without instantiating the provider.

Summary

Public methods
abstract S	`get()` Returns an instance of the provider.
abstract Class<out S>!	`type()` Returns the provider type.

Public methods

get

Added in API level 35

abstract fun get(): S

Returns an instance of the provider.

Return
`S`	An instance of the provider.

Exceptions
`java.util.ServiceConfigurationError`	If the service provider cannot be instantiated, or in the case of a provider factory, the public static "`provider()`" method returns `null` or throws an error or exception. The `ServiceConfigurationError` will carry an appropriate cause where possible.

type

Added in API level 35

abstract fun type(): Class<out S>!

Returns the provider type. There is no guarantee that this type is accessible or that it has a public no-args constructor. The get() method should be used to obtain the provider instance.

When a module declares that the provider class is created by a provider factory then this method returns the return type of its public static "provider()" method.

Return
`Class<out S>!`	The provider type
