Class XPVendor

java.lang.Object
  com.plumtree.openfoundation.platform.XPVendor

public class XPVendor
extends java.lang.Object

Enumerated ordinal type for VM vendor. On Java, this is the JVM vendor (Sun, IBM, BEA); on .NET, this is the CLR vendor (currently just Microsoft).

The purpose of this class is to allow you to make assertions based on which vendor you're currently using. It allows you to write code like this:

   XPVendor v = XPVendor.GetVendor();
   if(v.equals(XPVendor.BEA)) { // ...
 

You can also use it to get the full name of the vendor as specified by the VM vendor itself, using the GetFullName() method.

protected XPVendor()

Method Detail

GetVendor

public static XPVendor GetVendor(int id)

Gets vendor by ID. Will return null for an ID not in our enumeration list.

Parameters:

id - ID for expected vendor.

Returns:

XPVendor object corresponds to id.

GetName

public java.lang.String GetName()

Return XPVendor object's platform name.

Returns:

the short name of the platform

equals

public boolean equals(XPVendor vendor)

Compare if two objects represent the same vendor using their ID's.

Parameters:

vendor - object to be compared with current instance.

Returns:

true if two objects represent the same vendor, false if otherwise.

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

GetVendor

public static XPVendor GetVendor()

Returns the vendor object corresponding to the current VM vendor. If this cannot be determined, we'll return XPVendor.UNKNOWN

Returns:

XPVendor object of current OS.

computeVendor

protected static XPVendor computeVendor(java.lang.String vendor)

Create JVM's vendor object using vendors' name.

Parameters:

vendor - vendor name.

Returns:

JVM vendors' XPVendor objects.

GetVersion

public static java.lang.String GetVersion()

Returns the name of the version of the JRE/CLR. On Java this is the "java.vm.version" system property.

Returns:

JVM version number of current OS.

GetFullName

public static java.lang.String GetFullName()

Returns the full name of the JRE/CLR vendor. On Java this is the "java.vendor" system property.

Returns:

Full name of JRE/CLR vendor.
