MBeanAttributeInfo

public MBeanAttributeInfo(String name,
                          String type,
                          String description,

                          boolean isIs)
                   throws IllegalArgumentException
Constructs an MBeanAttributeInfo object.

Parameters:
name - The name of the attribute.
type - The type or class name of the attribute.
description - A human readable description of the attribute.
isReadable - True if the attribute has a getter method, false otherwise.
isWritable - True if the attribute has a setter method, false otherwise.
isIs - True if this attribute has an "is" getter, false otherwise.
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException

MBeanAttributeInfo

public MBeanAttributeInfo(String name,
                          String description,
                          Method getter,
                          Method setter)
                   throws IntrospectionException
This constructor takes the name of a simple attribute, and Method objects for reading and writing the attribute.

Parameters:
name - The programmatic name of the attribute.
description - A human readable description of the attribute.
getter - The method used for reading the attribute value. May be null if the property is write-only.
setter - The method used for writing the attribute value. May be null if the attribute is read-only.
Throws:
IntrospectionException - There is a consistency problem in the definition of this attribute.
Method Detail

clone

public Object clone()

Returns a shallow clone of this instance. The clone is obtained by simply calling super.clone(), thus calling the default native shallow cloning mechanism implemented by Object.clone(). No deeper cloning of any internal field is made.

Since this class is immutable, cloning is chiefly of interest to subclasses.

Overrides:
clone in class Object
Returns:
a clone of this instance.
See Also:
Cloneable

getType

public String getType()
Returns the class name of the attribute.

Returns:
the class name.

isReadable

public boolean isReadable()
Whether the value of the attribute can be read.

Returns:
True if the attribute can be read, false otherwise.

isWritable

public boolean isWritable()
Whether new values can be written to the attribute.

Returns:
True if the attribute can be written to, false otherwise.

isIs

public boolean isIs()
Indicates if this attribute has an "is" getter.

Returns:
true if this attribute has an "is" getter.

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)
Compare this MBeanAttributeInfo to another.

Overrides:
equals in class MBeanFeatureInfo
Parameters:
o - the object to compare to.
Returns:
true iff o is an MBeanAttributeInfo such that its MBeanFeatureInfo.getName(), getType(), MBeanFeatureInfo.getDescription(), isReadable(), isWritable(), and isIs() values are equal (not necessarily identical) to those of this MBeanAttributeInfo.

Object.hashCode(), Hashtable

hashCode

public int hashCode()
Description copied from class: Object
Returns a hash code value for the object. This method is supported for the benefit of hashtables such as those provided by java.util.Hashtable.

The general contract of hashCode is:

As much as is reasonably practical, the hashCode method defined by class Object does return distinct integers for distinct objects. (This is typically implemented by converting the internal address of the object into an integer, but this implementation technique is not required by the JavaTM programming language.)

Overrides:
hashCode in class MBeanFeatureInfo
Returns:
a hash code value for this object.

Object.equals(java.lang.Object), Hashtable
