Class FixtureImportsComposite

java.lang.Object
  org.mockcentral.server.FixtureImportsComposite

public class FixtureImportsComposite
extends java.lang.Object

A class for storing the composite list of imported Fixture instances for a given Fixture object. This list will include the imports declared within the current Fixture plus the imports declared within imported ones, their imports, and so on. Circularity is tested for and will result in a MockCentralServerException. This class facilitates the sorting of the list of Fixture instances into the proper build order for the MockCentralServer class.
