Constructor Detail

public Attribute()

Method Detail

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Description copied from interface: CoreComponentI

Returns a representation of the component as a String. Note: toString() is really only guaranteed effective for debugging, because namespaces may require the additional intelligence of a visitor class.

Overrides:

toString in class CoreComponent

toString

public java.lang.String toString(ComponentSetI namespaceContext)

Description copied from interface: CoreComponentI

Returns a representation of the component as a String. Given a namespaceContext, this may be more effective than the regular toString().

getBasicType

public int getBasicType()

Attribute has the basic type ATTRIBUTE. Duh.

Overrides:

getBasicType in class CoreComponent

listen

public boolean listen(CoreComponentI component)
               throws MOEException

For now, the Attribute class doesn't listen. I may revisit this decison later.

Overrides:

listen in class CoreComponent

clone

public java.lang.Object clone()

Description copied from class: CoreComponent

Non-clone implementation needs replacement. Will be made abstract when subclasses have implementation.

Overrides:

clone in class CoreComponent

main

public static void main(java.lang.String[] args)
                 throws java.lang.Exception

Need to update - currently elements only
