Enum OpenMetadataExchangeRule

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Comparable<OpenMetadataExchangeRule>
    public enum OpenMetadataExchangeRule
extends Enum<OpenMetadataExchangeRule>
implements Serializable
    OpenMetadataExchangeRule controls the sending/receiving of metadata instances on the metadata highway.
    • REGISTRATION_ONLY means do not send/receive reference metadata - just perform the minimal registration exchanges.
    • JUST_TYPEDEFS means only send/receive/validate type definitions (TypeDefs).
    • SELECTED_TYPES means that in addition to TypeDefs events, only metadata instances of the types supplied in the related list of TypeDefs (see typesToSend, typesToSave and typesToFederate) should be processed.
    • DESELECTED_TYPES means that in addition to TypeDefs events, only metadata instances NOT of the types supplied in the related list of TypeDefs (see typesToSend, typesToSave and typesToFederate) should be processed.
    • LEARNED_TYPES means that the local repository requests reference copies of metadata based on the requests of the local user community.
    • ALL means send/receive all types of metadata that are supported by the local repository.

      • values

        public static OpenMetadataExchangeRule[] values()
        Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows: 
        for (OpenMetadataExchangeRule c : OpenMetadataExchangeRule.values())
    System.out.println(c);
        Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

      • valueOf

        public static OpenMetadataExchangeRule valueOf​(String name)
        Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
        Parameters:
        name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
        Returns:
        the enum constant with the specified name
