ViewElementDescriptor

• java.lang.Object
  • com.android.ide.eclipse.editors.descriptors.ElementDescriptor

Fields Summary
private String	mCanonicalClassName
private com.android.ide.eclipse.editors.descriptors.AttributeDescriptor[]	mLayoutAttributes The list of layout attributes. Can be empty but not null.

Constructors Summary
public ViewElementDescriptor(String xml_name, String ui_name, String canonicalClassName, String tooltip, String sdk_url, com.android.ide.eclipse.editors.descriptors.AttributeDescriptor[] attributes, com.android.ide.eclipse.editors.descriptors.AttributeDescriptor[] layoutAttributes, com.android.ide.eclipse.editors.descriptors.ElementDescriptor[] children, boolean mandatory) Constructs a new {@link ViewElementDescriptor} based on its XML name, UI name, the canonical name of the class it represents, its tooltip, its SDK url, its attributes list, its children list and its mandatory flag. param xml_name The XML element node name. Case sensitive. param ui_name The XML element name for the user interface, typically capitalized. param canonicalClassName The canonical class name the {@link ViewElementDescriptor} is representing. param tooltip An optional tooltip. Can be null or empty. param sdk_url An optional SKD URL. Can be null or empty. param attributes The list of allowed attributes. Can be null or empty. param layoutAttributes The list of layout attributes. Can be null or empty. param children The list of allowed children. Can be null or empty. param mandatory Whether this node must always exist (even for empty models). A mandatory UI node is never deleted and it may lack an actual XML node attached. A non-mandatory UI node MUST have an XML node attached and it will cease to exist when the XML node ceases to exist. super(xml_name, ui_name, tooltip, sdk_url, attributes, children, mandatory); mCanonicalClassName = canonicalClassName; mLayoutAttributes = layoutAttributes != null ? layoutAttributes : new AttributeDescriptor[0];
public ViewElementDescriptor(String xml_name, String canonicalClassName, com.android.ide.eclipse.editors.descriptors.ElementDescriptor[] children, boolean mandatory) Constructs a new {@link ElementDescriptor} based on its XML name, the canonical name of the class it represents, and its children list. The UI name is build by capitalizing the XML name. The UI nodes will be non-mandatory. param xml_name The XML element node name. Case sensitive. param canonicalClassName The canonical class name the {@link ViewElementDescriptor} is representing. param children The list of allowed children. Can be null or empty. param mandatory Whether this node must always exist (even for empty models). A mandatory UI node is never deleted and it may lack an actual XML node attached. A non-mandatory UI node MUST have an XML node attached and it will cease to exist when the XML node ceases to exist. super(xml_name, children, mandatory); mCanonicalClassName = canonicalClassName;
public ViewElementDescriptor(String xml_name, String canonicalClassName, com.android.ide.eclipse.editors.descriptors.ElementDescriptor[] children) Constructs a new {@link ElementDescriptor} based on its XML name and children list. The UI name is build by capitalizing the XML name. The UI nodes will be non-mandatory. param xml_name The XML element node name. Case sensitive. param canonicalClassName The canonical class name the {@link ViewElementDescriptor} is representing. param children The list of allowed children. Can be null or empty. super(xml_name, children); mCanonicalClassName = canonicalClassName;
public ViewElementDescriptor(String xml_name, String canonicalClassName) Constructs a new {@link ElementDescriptor} based on its XML name and on the canonical name of the class it represents. The UI name is build by capitalizing the XML name. The UI nodes will be non-mandatory. param xml_name The XML element node name. Case sensitive. param canonicalClassName The canonical class name the {@link ViewElementDescriptor} is representing. super(xml_name); mCanonicalClassName = canonicalClassName;
