Enum ClassificationPropagationRule

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Comparable<ClassificationPropagationRule>
    public enum ClassificationPropagationRule
extends Enum<ClassificationPropagationRule>
implements Serializable
    ClassificationPropagationRule is part of a relationship definition (RelationshipDef). It indicates whether classifications from one entity should propagate across a relationship instance. It allows classification for, say confidentiality to be propagated to related entities.

    The propagation rule defines the direction of propagation:

    • NONE: no propagation of classifications across the relationship.
    • ONE_TO_TWO: from entity at end 1 of the relationship to the entity at end 2 of the relationship.
    • TWO_TO_ONE: from entity at end 2 of the relationship to the entity at end 1 of the relationship.
    • BOTH: two way propagation.

    • Method Detail

      • values

        public static ClassificationPropagationRule[] 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 (ClassificationPropagationRule c : ClassificationPropagationRule.values())
    System.out.println(c);
        Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

      • valueOf

        public static ClassificationPropagationRule 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
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
        NullPointerException - if the argument is null

      • getOrdinal

        public int getOrdinal()
        Return the numeric representation of the propagation rule.
        Returns:
        int ordinal

      • getName

        public String getName()
        Return the default name of the propagation rule.
        Returns:
        String name

      • getDescription

        public String getDescription()
        Return the default description of the propagation rule.
        Returns:
        String description
