Constructor Detail

PrimitiveDef

public PrimitiveDef()

Default constructor initializes the PrimitiveDef based on the supplied category.

PrimitiveDef

public PrimitiveDef(PrimitiveDefCategory primitiveDefCategory)

Superclass constructor initializes the PrimitiveDef based on the supplied category.

Parameters:

primitiveDefCategory - PrimitiveDefCategory Enum

PrimitiveDef

public PrimitiveDef(PrimitiveDef template)

Copy/clone constructor creates a copy of the supplied template.

Parameters:

template - PrimitiveDef to copy

Method Detail

cloneFromSubclass

public AttributeTypeDef cloneFromSubclass()

Delegate the process of cloning to the subclass.

Specified by:

cloneFromSubclass in class AttributeTypeDef

Returns:

subclass of AttributeTypeDef

getPrimitiveDefCategory

public PrimitiveDefCategory getPrimitiveDefCategory()

Return the type category for this primitive type.

Returns:

PrimitiveDefCategory Enum

setPrimitiveDefCategory

public void setPrimitiveDefCategory(PrimitiveDefCategory primitiveDefCategory)

Set up the type category for this primitive type.

Parameters:

primitiveDefCategory - PrimitiveDefCategory Enum

toString

public String toString()

Standard toString method.

Overrides:

toString in class AttributeTypeDef

Returns:
