Interface Loadable

public interface Loadable
Represents an object that can be loaded and unloaded dynamically.

This interface provides a standard contract for managing the lifecycle of objects that require initialization and cleanup. Implementing classes should define what "loading" and "unloading" mean in their specific context.

Example usage:


 public class ConfigManager implements Loadable {
     private boolean loaded;

     @Override
     public boolean isLoaded() {
         return loaded;
     }

     @Override
     public void load() {
         // Load configuration files
         loaded = true;
     }

     @Override
     public void unload() {
         // Release resources
         loaded = false;
     }
 }

      boolean isLoaded()
      Checks whether this object is currently loaded.
      Returns:
      true if the object is loaded, false otherwise

    • load

      void load()
      Loads the object, initializing necessary resources.

      This method should be implemented to perform any setup operations required before using the object.

      This method should clean up any allocated memory, close file streams, or reset states as necessary.
