Class Char

java.lang.Object
  oracle.jbo.domain.Char

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, oracle.jbo.domain.DomainInterface, oracle.jbo.domain.KeyAttributeInterface

public class Char
extends java.lang.Object
implements oracle.jbo.domain.DomainInterface, java.io.Serializable, oracle.jbo.domain.KeyAttributeInterface

This class provides a lightweight wrapper for java.lang.Sting, the native Java type for Char objects. This wrapper allows an instance of the java.lang.String to be used as a domain object. The intent of many of the methods in this class is to wrap the corresponding method in the java.lang.String class such that it returns an instance of an oracle.jbo.domain.Char object.

Method Detail

getData

public java.lang.Object getData()

Specified by:

getData in interface oracle.jbo.domain.DomainInterface

setContext

public void setContext(oracle.jbo.domain.DomainOwnerInterface owner,
