Interface OpenMBeanConstructorInfo

public interface OpenMBeanConstructorInfo

Describes a constructor for an open management bean. This interface includes those methods specified by {@link javax.management.MBeanConstructorInfo}, so implementations should extend this class. The {@link #getSignature()} method should return an array containing instances of {@link OpenMBeanParameterInfo}.

Since: 1.5

Method Summary
boolean	equals(Object obj) Compares this attribute with the supplied object.
String	getDescription() Returns a description of this constructor.
String	getName() Returns the name of this constructor.
MBeanParameterInfo[]	getSignature() Returns the constructor's signature, in the form of information on each parameter.
int	hashCode() Returns the hashcode of the constructor information as the sum of the hashcodes of the name and signature (calculated by `java.util.Arrays.asList(signature).hashCode()`).
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 OpenMBeanConstructorInfo} with an equal name and signature.

Parameters: obj the object to compare.

Returns: true if the object is a {@link OpenMBeanParameterInfo} instance, name.equals(object.getName()), and signature.equals(object.getSignature()).

getDescription

public String getDescription()

Returns a description of this constructor.

Returns: a human-readable description.

getName

public String getName()

Returns the name of this constructor.

Returns: the name of the constructor.

getSignature

public MBeanParameterInfo[] getSignature()

Returns the constructor's signature, in the form of information on each parameter. Each parameter is described by an instance of {@link OpenMBeanParameterInfo}.

Returns: an array of {@link OpenMBeanParameterInfo} objects, describing the constructor parameters.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns the hashcode of the constructor information as the sum of the hashcodes of the name and signature (calculated by java.util.Arrays.asList(signature).hashCode()).

Returns: the hashcode of the constructor information.

toString

public String toString()

Returns a textual representation of this instance. This is constructed using the class name (javax.management.openmbean.OpenMBeanConstructorInfo) along with the name and signature.

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