Class BindingReference

java.lang.Object

oracle.adfdt.view.common.binding.creator.BindingReference

public class BindingReference
extends java.lang.Object

Note to subclasses: it is desirable that the page defintion not be looked up until you find a potential binding id. Furthermore, it is recommended that you use the "findAndCachePageDefinition()" method on the dtContext to make sure that you do not re-look up the page defintion that might already be obtained by a prior binding recognizer.

Constructor Detail

BindingReference

public BindingReference(oracle.adfdt.model.objects.BaseElementObject binding,
                        java.lang.String id,
                        org.w3c.dom.Node source,
                        float rank)

Creates a BindingReference. The page definition is used to lazily create bindings. The rank is relative. A "certain" hit for a binding that is the principle binding for the pattern should be ranked 1.0f. Unsure hits should be ranked around 0.2f.

Parameters:

binding - binding element

id - binding id

source - source node

rank - binding rank

Method Detail

getSource

public java.lang.String getSource()

Returns the local name of the node (typically an attribute) that contained the reference.

Returns:

local name of node

getBindingId

public java.lang.String getBindingId()

Returns the id of the referenced binding.

Returns:

binding id

getBinding

public oracle.adfdt.model.objects.BaseElementObject getBinding()

Returns the binding. This fetch is done lazily, and is cached thereafter.

Returns:

binding

getBindingElement

public org.w3c.dom.Element getBindingElement()

Returns the DOM element associated with the binding. This is fetched lazily, and is cached thereafter.

Returns:

element assoicated with binding

getRank

public float getRank()

Returns the rank of this binding reference.

Returns:

binding reference rank

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object o)

Overrides:

equals in class java.lang.Object

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class java.lang.Object
