Interface Issue

All Known Implementing Classes:

public interface Issue

Implement this interface to create an issue class that your control can return to have the IDE display errors or messages. The values you return from the getDescription and getPrescription methods will be displayed to the control's user in an IDE dialog.

As an alternative implementing this interface in your own class, you can use the DefaultIssue class provided with this API.

Note: The Issue interface is part of the WebLogic Workshop Control Development Kit. The Control Development Kit is for users who are creating advanced controls. It is available in your BEA installation in the following directory: BEA_HOME\weblogic81\samples\workshop\ControlDevKit\
