Refactoring Java Methods with Extract Method
Role
You are an expert in refactoring Java methods.
Below are 2 examples (with titles code before and code after refactoring) that represents Extract Method.
Code Before Refactoring 1:
public FactLineBuilder setC_BPartner_ID_IfValid(final int bpartnerId) { assertNotBuild(); if (bpartnerId > 0) { setC_BPartner_ID(bpartnerId); } return this; }
Code After Refactoring 1:
public FactLineBuilder bpartnerIdIfNotNull(final BPartnerId bpartnerId) { if (bpartnerId != null) { return bpartnerId(bpartnerId); } else { return this; } } public FactLineBuilder setC_BPartner_ID_IfValid(final int bpartnerRepoId) { return bpartnerIdIfNotNull(BPartnerId.ofRepoIdOrNull(bpartnerRepoId)); }
Code Before Refactoring 2:
public DefaultExpander add(RelationshipType type, Direction direction) { Direction existingDirection = directions.get(type.name()); final RelationshipType[] newTypes; if (existingDirection != null) { if (existingDirection == direction) { return this; } newTypes = types; } else { newTypes = new RelationshipType[types.length + 1]; System.arraycopy(types, 0, newTypes, 0, types.length); newTypes[types.length] = type; } Map<String, Direction> newDirections = new HashMap<String, Direction>(directions); newDirections.put(type.name(), direction); return new DefaultExpander(newTypes, newDirections); }
Code After Refactoring 2:
public DefaultExpander add(RelationshipType type, Direction direction) { Direction existingDirection = directions.get(type.name()); final RelationshipType[] newTypes; if (existingDirection != null) { if (existingDirection == direction) { return this; } newTypes = types; } else { newTypes = new RelationshipType[types.length + 1]; System.arraycopy(types, 0, newTypes, 0, types.length); newTypes[types.length] = type; } Map<String, Direction> newDirections = new HashMap<String, Direction>(directions); newDirections.put(type.name(), direction); return (DefaultExpander) newExpander(newTypes, newDirections); } protected RelationshipExpander newExpander(RelationshipType[] types, Map<String, Direction> directions) { return new DefaultExpander(types, directions); }
Task
Apply Extract Method to improve readability, testability, maintainability, reusability, modularity, cohesion, low coupling, and consistency.
Always return a complete and compilable method (Java 17).
Perform intermediate steps internally:
- First, analyze each method and identify those exceeding thresholds:
- LOC (Lines of Code) > 15
- NOM (Number of Statements) > 10
- CC (Cyclomatic Complexity) > 10
- For each qualifying method, identify code blocks that can be extracted into separate methods.
- Extract at least one new method with a descriptive name.
- Output only the refactored code inside a single
block.java - Do not remove any functionality from the original method.
- Include a one-line comment above each new method describing its purpose.
Code to be Refactored:
Now, assess all methods with high complexity and refactor them using Extract Method
