Nested Class Summary

class

AttributeSetMapping.AttributeSetMappingComparator Deprecated. Comparator used when inspecting properties during attribute set persistence.

Constructor Summary

AttributeSetMapping()
Deprecated. Constructor: initializes the object with an ID of -1

AttributeSetMapping(com.endeca.portal.liferay.ext.metadata.model.MetadataPropertyRecord record)
Deprecated. Constructor that initializes the object from a MetadataRecord.

AttributeSetMapping(java.lang.String attributeName)
Deprecated. Convenience constructor that initializes the object for a specified attribute.

Method Summary

boolean	equals(java.lang.Object obj) Deprecated. Returns true if the provided display name property object's Metadata Object ID and mapping value (the attribute name) are the same.
java.lang.String	getAttributeName() Deprecated. Returns the "value" of the attribute mapping, which is the name of the attribute that this mapping represents
java.util.Comparator<MetadataProperty>	getPropertyComparator() Deprecated. Specify the Comparator to use when determining if a MetadataProperty has been modified and should therefore be persisted to the database.
java.lang.String	getType() Deprecated. Returns

Constructor Detail

AttributeSetMapping

public AttributeSetMapping()

Deprecated.

Constructor: initializes the object with an ID of -1

AttributeSetMapping

public AttributeSetMapping(com.endeca.portal.liferay.ext.metadata.model.MetadataPropertyRecord record)

Deprecated.

Constructor that initializes the object from a MetadataRecord. The underlying object is not persisted to the database; that must be done explicitly if you want it to be persisted.

Parameters:

record - the source MetadataRecord

AttributeSetMapping

public AttributeSetMapping(java.lang.String attributeName)

Deprecated.

Convenience constructor that initializes the object for a specified attribute.

Parameters:

attributeName - the name of the attribute this mapping represents

Method Detail

getAttributeName

public java.lang.String getAttributeName()

Deprecated.

Returns the "value" of the attribute mapping, which is the name of the attribute that this mapping represents

Returns:

the name of the attribute

getType

public java.lang.String getType()

Deprecated.

Returns

Specified by:

getType in interface Metadata

Specified by:

getType in class MetadataProperty

Returns:

the type of metadata this object represents

See Also:

Metadata.getType()

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object obj)

Deprecated.

Returns true if the provided display name property object's Metadata Object ID and mapping value (the attribute name) are the same. This equals method is important for List.contains() operations; changing the logic here could have consequences.

Overrides:

equals in class MetadataProperty

getPropertyComparator

public java.util.Comparator<MetadataProperty> getPropertyComparator()

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: MetadataProperty

Specify the Comparator to use when determining if a MetadataProperty has been modified and should therefore be persisted to the database. Return null to use equals() instead of a custom comparator. This base class returns null; subclasses should override this method when necessary. Note that we abuse the Comparator interface - we don't truly care about ordering; we only care if the objects being compared are equivalent (i.e. the comparator returns 0). However, subclasses should fully comply with the Comparator interface for forward compatibility. *

Overrides:

getPropertyComparator in class MetadataProperty

Returns:

a custom Comparator or null to use equals()
