Class PropertyGroup

java.lang.Object
  oracle.jbo.common.PropertyGroup

public final class PropertyGroup
extends java.lang.Object

This is an example of a java type-safe constant.

The constructor is private, so the only instances of this object that can ever exist are those created in the static initializer.

This constant exposes its extent via the getGroups() call. The objects returned can be used in the query against the Property metadata eg. PropertyMetadata.getProperties(PropertyGroup x)

Hence we have a controlled list of values, marshalled by this class.

9.0.4 05Nov02 note see the article by Eric Armstrong in JavaWorld, July 1997 "Create enumerated constants in Java"
