Class IpsModel

java.lang.Object

org.faktorips.runtime.model.IpsModel

public class IpsModel
extends Object

Repository of Faktor-IPS model information. This class should be used to obtain model instances from runtime classes or their instances instead of using the constructors. By caching model information, this class operates more efficiently if model information is retrieved repeatedly.

Method Detail

getTableStructure

public static TableStructure getTableStructure(Class<? extends ITable> tableObjectClass)

Parameters:

tableObjectClass - a generated subclass of ITable

Returns:

a TableStructure describing the type and columns of the given ITable class

getTableStructure

public static TableStructure getTableStructure(ITable table)

Returns:

a TableStructure describing the type and columns of the given ITable

isProductCmptType

Parameters:

productModelClass - The generated class for a product component type, may be either an implementation class of a published interface.

Returns:

the product model object for the given product model class

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the given class is not properly annotated for a product model

getProductCmptType

public static ProductCmptType getProductCmptType(IProductComponent productComponent)
