Class ReferenceBase

java.lang.Object
  com.remedy.arsys.api.ReferenceBase

Direct Known Subclasses:

ExternalReferenceInfo, ReferenceInfo

public class ReferenceBase

extends java.lang.Object

The ReferenceBase class is the base class for SYSTEM_REFERENCE and EXTERNAL_REFERENCE. (getDataType()) Used to set and return the objects referenced by a container.

Field Summary

static int	EXTERNAL_REFERENCE External reference data type (ExternalReferenceInfo)
static int	SYSTEM_REFERENCE Internal reference data type (InternalID)

Constructor Summary

protected

ReferenceBase(java.lang.String label, java.lang.String desc, ReferenceType refType, int dataType)

Method Summary

java.lang.Object	clone() Makes a deep copy of the object.
boolean	equals(java.lang.Object anObject) Use this method for checking equality.
int	getDataType() Returns an integer specifying the type of reference.
char[]	getDescription() Returns a string specifying a display-only description for the reference.
char[]	getLabel() Returns a string specifying a display-only label for the reference.
ReferenceType	getReferenceType() Returns union that defines either an internal or external reference depending on its datatype,which is either 0 (Constants.ARREF_DATA_ARSREF) or 1 (Constants.ARREF_DATA_EXTREF).
int	hashCode() Returns the hash code value for this instance of the current class.
void	setDataType(int nType) Sets an integer specifying the type of reference.
void	setDescription(char[] desc) Sets a character string specifying a display-only description for the reference.

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object anObject)

Use this method for checking equality. The result is true only if the argument is not null, is of same type and represents the same content.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns the hash code value for this instance of the current class. This method is supported as required by the general contract of Object.hashCode, for the benefit of hash tables such as those provided by java.util.Hashtable.
