Interface OpenMBeanAttributeInfo

public interface OpenMBeanAttributeInfo extends OpenMBeanParameterInfo

Describes an attribute associated with an open management bean. This interface includes those methods specified by {@link javax.management.MBeanAttributeInfo}, so implementations should extend this class.

Since: 1.5

Method Summary
boolean	equals(Object obj) Compares this attribute with the supplied object.
int	hashCode() Returns the hashcode of the attribute information as the sum of the hashcodes of the name, open type, default value, maximum value, minimum value, the set of legal values and the access properties.
boolean	isIs() Returns true if the accessor method of this attribute is of the form `isXXX`.
boolean	isReadable() Returns true if value of this attribute can be read.
boolean	isWritable() Returns true if the value of this attribute can be changed.
String	toString() Returns a textual representation of this instance.

Method Detail

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Compares this attribute with the supplied object. This returns true iff the object is an instance of {@link OpenMBeanAttributeInfo} with an equal name and open type, the same default, minimum, maximum and legal values and the same access properties ({@link #isIs()}, {@link #isReadable()}, {@link #isWritable()}).

Parameters: obj the object to compare.

Returns: true if the object is a {@link OpenMBeanParameterInfo} instance, name.equals(object.getName()), openType.equals(object.getOpenType()), defaultValue.equals(object.getDefaultValue()), minValue.equals(object.getMinValue()), maxValue.equals(object.getMaxValue()), legalValues.equals(object.getLegalValues()), is == object.isIs(), isRead == object.isReadable(), and isWrite == object.isWritable().

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns the hashcode of the attribute information as the sum of the hashcodes of the name, open type, default value, maximum value, minimum value, the set of legal values and the access properties.

Returns: the hashcode of the attribute information.

isIs

public boolean isIs()

Returns true if the accessor method of this attribute is of the form isXXX.

Returns: true if the accessor takes the form isXXX.

isReadable

public boolean isReadable()

Returns true if value of this attribute can be read.

Returns: true if the value of the attribute can be read.

isWritable

public boolean isWritable()

Returns true if the value of this attribute can be changed.

Returns: true if the value of the attribute can be changed.

toString

public String toString()

Returns a textual representation of this instance. This is constructed using the class name (javax.management.openmbean.OpenMBeanAttributeInfo) along with the name, open type, default, minimum, maximum and legal values of the parameter and the access permissions ({@link #isIs()}, {@link #isReadable()}, {@link #isWritable()}).

Returns: a @link{java.lang.String} instance representing the instance in textual form.
