Method Detail

cloneIterator

protected AssetExternalIdentifiers cloneIterator(AssetDescriptor parentAsset)

Clones this iterator.

Specified by:

cloneIterator in class AssetExternalIdentifiers

Parameters:

parentAsset - descriptor of parent asset

Returns:

new cloned object.

cloneElement

protected AssetPropertyBase cloneElement(AssetDescriptor parentAsset,
                                         AssetPropertyBase template)

Method implemented by a subclass that ensures the cloning process is a deep clone.

Overrides:

cloneElement in class AssetExternalIdentifiers

Parameters:

parentAsset - descriptor of parent asset

template - object to clone

Returns:

new cloned object.

getCachedList

protected List<AssetPropertyBase> getCachedList(int cacheStartPointer,
                                                int maximumSize)
                                         throws PropertyServerException

Method implemented by subclass to retrieve the next cached list of elements.

Specified by:

getCachedList in class AssetPropertyIteratorBase

Parameters:

cacheStartPointer - where to start the cache.

maximumSize - maximum number of elements in the cache.

Returns:

list of elements corresponding to the supplied cache pointers.

Throws:
