Class ObjectFieldDefinition

java.lang.Object

gr.uoa.di.madgik.grs.record.field.FieldDefinition

gr.uoa.di.madgik.grs.record.field.ObjectFieldDefinition

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class ObjectFieldDefinition
extends FieldDefinition

The FieldDefinition implementation for ObjectField. The compression instruction is not used for the respective ObjectField as the actual payload serialization is performed outside the Field methods

Method Detail

setTransportDirective

public void setTransportDirective(IBuffer.TransportDirective directive)

Sets the transport directive to be used during transfer

The set IBuffer.TransportDirective is not affected. Only the default IBuffer.TransportDirective.Full is supported

Overrides:

setTransportDirective in class FieldDefinition

Parameters:

directive - the directive to be used

FieldDefinition.setTransportDirective(gr.uoa.di.madgik.grs.buffer.IBuffer.TransportDirective)

getTransportDirective

public IBuffer.TransportDirective getTransportDirective()

Retrieves the transport directive to be used during transfer

The default IBuffer.TransportDirective.Full is returned

Overrides:

getTransportDirective in class FieldDefinition

Returns:

the transport directive to be used during transfer

See Also:

FieldDefinition.getTransportDirective()

extendEquals

public boolean extendEquals(Object obj)

Method to be implemented by extenders to check if two instances are equal

Specified by:

extendEquals in class FieldDefinition

Parameters:

obj - the instance to check for equality

Returns:

true if equal, false otherwise
