public class ObjectStates
extends java.lang.Object

This is the base class for any class representing the possible states for an object. It provides methods for searching the state maps for the requested state value or string. Normally the state's integer representation, string representation, and description are all pulled from the configuration properties file. This does not work very well when operating in multiple languages. If translation of states is necessary, please use the methods getStateAsUserResource and getStateDescriptionAsUserResource instead of getStateAsString and getStateDescription respectively. The resource file at getResourceFileName will be used to look up string values for each of the states.

getStateDescriptionMap

public java.util.Properties getStateDescriptionMap()

stateDescriptionMap is the mapping between a state name and a description string

getStateValue

public int getStateValue(java.lang.String pStateName)

This method gets the requested states value.

Parameters:

pState - The name of the state we are getting the value for

Returns:

The integer value of the state

getStateDescription

public java.lang.String getStateDescription(java.lang.String pStateString)

This method gets the requested states description.

Parameters:

pState - The string value of the state we are getting the description for

Returns:

The description of the state

getStateDescription

public java.lang.String getStateDescription(int pStateValue)

This method gets the requested states description.

Parameters:

pState - The name of the state we are getting the description for

Returns:

This method gets the requested states string value.

Parameters:

pState - The value of the state we are getting the string value for

Returns:

The string value of the state

getStateFromString

public int getStateFromString(java.lang.String pState)

This method takes a states string value and returns the int value

Parameters:

pState - The string value of the state

Returns:

The int value of the state

getResourcePrefix

public java.lang.String getResourcePrefix()

Return the resource key prefix To allow for different objects to have the same states translated in different ways, this prefix will be prepended to any keys. For example the order has a state called processing. The shipping group also has a state called processing. To allow this to be translated in different ways, a prefix is prepended to the state meaning there are separate entries for: ORDER.PROCESSING and SHIPPING.PROCESSING

getDescriptionResourcePrefix

public java.lang.String getDescriptionResourcePrefix()

Return the resource key prefix for descriptions Currenty this returns resourcePrefix + "DESC"
