protected java.lang.String mJavaTypeString

Method Detail

isReadOnly

public boolean isReadOnly()

Description copied from interface: AttributeDefinition

Finds out whether this attribute is read-only or is updateable.

Specified by:

isReadOnly in interface AttributeDefinition

Returns:

True if this attribute is read-only, false otherwise.

isKey

public boolean isKey()

Description copied from interface: AttributeDefinition

Finds out whether this attribute is the primary key of the row.

Specified by:

isKey in interface AttributeDefinition

Returns:

True if this attribute is the primary key, false otherwise.

getJavaTypeString

public java.lang.String getJavaTypeString()

Description copied from interface: VariableDefinition

Retrieves the type of the variable.

Specified by:

getJavaTypeString in interface VariableDefinition

Returns:

The fully qualified Java class name of the variable type.

setJavaTypeString

public void setJavaTypeString(java.lang.String jType)

getSourceTypeString

public java.lang.String getSourceTypeString()

Description copied from interface: AttributeDefinition

Returns the actual java type of the attribute in the data source. This may be different from the java type returned by getJavaTypeString if the data control is returning an attribute as a different datatype as what it is in its data source. For example, if the source type is a java.lang.String representing some number, the java type of the attribute could be java.lang.Integer.

Specified by:

getSourceTypeString in interface AttributeDefinition

Returns:

The java type of the attribute in the data source.

getDefinitionType

public int getDefinitionType()

Description copied from interface: Definition

Retrieves the type of this definition. It can be one of the TYPE_* constants defined in this class. This is useful to find out the actual type of the Definition without doing an instanceof operations.

Specified by:

getDefinitionType in interface Definition

Specified by:

getDefinitionType in class AbstractNamedDefinition

Returns:

The type of definition that this Definition implementation class implements.

getProperty

public java.lang.Object getProperty(java.lang.String propertyName)

Description copied from interface: NamedDefinition

Retrieves the value of a property with the given name. Properties can be used for UI hints such as display width and height.

Specified by:

getProperty in interface NamedDefinition

Overrides:

getProperty in class AbstractNamedDefinition

Parameters:

propertyName - Name of the property to be retrieved.

Returns:

Value of the property with the given property name.
