Class PropertyInstanceHolder

java.lang.Object
  com.bea.wli.worklist.portal.PropertyInstanceHolder

All Implemented Interfaces:

DataTypeInPlaceEditableValue, DataTypeValue, PropertyInstance, Serializable

public class PropertyInstanceHolder
extends Object
implements PropertyInstance, DataTypeInPlaceEditableValue

Utility class to assist in the editing of task properties. This class holds a PropertyInstance from a task, and decorates it with a summary value and other helper classes. These helpers allow the property to be edited in-place, and ease the interaction with standard property editors like the text and JavaBean/XMLBean property editors.
