Constructors Summary
public CompositeType(String typeName, String description, String[] itemNames, String[] itemDescriptions, OpenType[] itemTypes)
Constructs a CompositeType instance, checking for the validity of the given parameters. The validity constraints are described below for each parameter.

Note that the contents of the three array parameters itemNames, itemDescriptions and itemTypes are internally copied so that any subsequent modification of these arrays by the caller of this constructor has no impact on the constructed CompositeType instance.

The Java class name of composite data values this composite type represents (ie the class name returned by the {@link OpenType#getClassName() getClassName} method) is set to the string value returned by CompositeData.class.getName().

param
typeName The name given to the composite type this instance represents; cannot be a null or empty string.
 
param
description The human readable description of the composite type this instance represents; cannot be a null or empty string.
 
param
itemNames The names of the items contained in the composite data values described by this CompositeType instance; cannot be null and should contain at least one element; no element can be a null or empty string. Note that the order in which the item names are given is not important to differentiate a CompositeType instance from another; the item names are internally stored sorted in ascending alphanumeric order.
 
param
itemDescriptions The descriptions, in the same order as itemNames, of the items contained in the composite data values described by this CompositeType instance; should be of the same size as itemNames; no element can be a null or empty string.
 
param
itemTypes The open type instances, in the same order as itemNames, describing the items contained in the composite data values described by this CompositeType instance; should be of the same size as itemNames; no element can be null.
 
throws
IllegalArgumentException If typeName or description is a null or empty string, or itemNames or itemDescriptions or itemTypes is null, or any element of itemNames or itemDescriptions is a null or empty string, or any element of itemTypes is null, or itemNames or itemDescriptions or itemTypes are not of the same size.
 
throws
OpenDataException If itemNames contains duplicate item names (case sensitive, but leading and trailing whitespaces removed).

public booleancontainsKey(java.lang.String itemName)
Returns true if this CompositeType instance defines an item whose name is itemName.

param
itemName the name of the item.
return
true if an item of this name is present.


	if (itemName == null) {
	    return false;
	}
	return nameToDescription.containsKey(itemName);
    
public booleanequals(java.lang.Object obj)
Compares the specified obj parameter with this CompositeType instance for equality.

Two CompositeType instances are equal if and only if all of the following statements are true:

  • their type names are equal
  • their items' names and types are equal

 

param
obj the object to be compared for equality with this CompositeType instance; if obj is null, equals returns false.
return
true if the specified object is equal to this CompositeType instance.


	// if obj is null, return false
	//
	if (obj == null) {
	    return false;
	}

	// if obj is not a CompositeType, return false
	//
	CompositeType other;
	try {
	    other = (CompositeType) obj;
	} catch (ClassCastException e) {
	    return false;
	}

	// Now, really test for equality between this CompositeType instance and the other
	//
	
	// their names should be equal
	if ( ! this.getTypeName().equals(other.getTypeName()) ) {
	    return false;
	}

	// their items names and types should be equal
	if ( ! this.nameToType.equals(other.nameToType) ) {
	    return false;
	}

	// All tests for equality were successfull
	//
	return true;
    
public java.lang.StringgetDescription(java.lang.String itemName)
Returns the description of the item whose name is itemName, or null if this CompositeType instance does not define any item whose name is itemName.

param
itemName the name of the item.
return
the description.


	if (itemName == null) {
	    return null;
	}
	return (String) nameToDescription.get(itemName);
    
public javax.management.openmbean.OpenTypegetType(java.lang.String itemName)
Returns the open type of the item whose name is itemName, or null if this CompositeType instance does not define any item whose name is itemName.

param
itemName the name of the time.
return
the type.


	if (itemName == null) {
	    return null;
	}
	return (OpenType<?>) nameToType.get(itemName);
    
public inthashCode()
Returns the hash code value for this CompositeType instance.

The hash code of a CompositeType instance is the sum of the hash codes of all elements of information used in equals comparisons (ie: name, items names, items types). This ensures that t1.equals(t2) implies that t1.hashCode()==t2.hashCode() for any two CompositeType instances t1 and t2, as required by the general contract of the method {@link Object#hashCode() Object.hashCode()}.

As CompositeType instances are immutable, the hash code for this instance is calculated once, on the first call to hashCode, and then the same value is returned for subsequent calls.

return
the hash code value for this CompositeType instance


	// Calculate the hash code value if it has not yet been done (ie 1st call to hashCode())
	//
	if (myHashCode == null) {
	    int value = 0;
	    value += this.getTypeName().hashCode();
	    String key;
	    for (Iterator k = nameToDescription.keySet().iterator(); k.hasNext();  ) {
		key = (String) k.next();
		value += key.hashCode();
		value += this.nameToType.get(key).hashCode();
	    }
	    myHashCode = new Integer(value);
	}
	
	// return always the same hash code for this instance (immutable)
	//
	return myHashCode.intValue();
    
booleanisAssignableFrom(javax.management.openmbean.OpenType ot)
Tests whether values of the given type can be assigned to this open type. The result is true if the given type is also a CompositeType with the same name ({@link #getTypeName()}), and every item in this type is also present in the given type with the same name and assignable type. There can be additional items in the given type, which are ignored.

param
ot the type to be tested.
return
true if {@code ot} is assignable to this open type.

        if (!(ot instanceof CompositeType))
            return false;
        CompositeType ct = (CompositeType) ot;
        if (!ct.getTypeName().equals(getTypeName()))
            return false;
        for (String key : keySet()) {
            OpenType<?> otItemType = ct.getType(key);
            OpenType<?> thisItemType = getType(key);
            if (otItemType == null ||
                    !thisItemType.isAssignableFrom(otItemType))
                return false;
        }
        return true;
    
public booleanisValue(java.lang.Object obj)
Tests whether obj is a value which could be described by this CompositeType instance.

If obj is null or is not an instance of javax.management.openmbean.CompositeData, isValue returns false.

If obj is an instance of javax.management.openmbean.CompositeData, then let {@code ct} be its {@code CompositeType} as returned by {@link CompositeData#getCompositeType()}. The result is true if {@code this} is assignable from {@code ct}. This means that:

  • {@link #getTypeName() this.getTypeName()} equals {@code ct.getTypeName()}, and
  • there are no item names present in {@code this} that are not also present in {@code ct}, and
  • for every item in {@code this}, its type is assignable from the type of the corresponding item in {@code ct}.

A {@code TabularType} is assignable from another {@code TabularType} if they have the same {@linkplain TabularType#getTypeName() typeName} and {@linkplain TabularType#getIndexNames() index name list}, and the {@linkplain TabularType#getRowType() row type} of the first is assignable from the row type of the second.

An {@code ArrayType} is assignable from another {@code ArrayType} if they have the same {@linkplain ArrayType#getDimension() dimension}; and both are {@linkplain ArrayType#isPrimitiveArray() primitive arrays} or neither is; and the {@linkplain ArrayType#getElementOpenType() element type} of the first is assignable from the element type of the second.

In every other case, an {@code OpenType} is assignable from another {@code OpenType} only if they are equal.

These rules mean that extra items can be added to a {@code CompositeData} without making it invalid for a {@code CompositeType} that does not have those items.

param
obj the value whose open type is to be tested for compatibility with this CompositeType instance.
return
true if obj is a value for this composite type, false otherwise.


	// if obj is null or not CompositeData, return false
	//
	if (!(obj instanceof CompositeData)) {
	    return false;
	}

	// if obj is not a CompositeData, return false
	//
	CompositeData value = (CompositeData) obj;

	// test value's CompositeType is assignable to this CompositeType instance
	//
	CompositeType valueType = value.getCompositeType();
        return this.isAssignableFrom(valueType);
    
public java.util.SetkeySet()
Returns an unmodifiable Set view of all the item names defined by this CompositeType instance. The set's iterator will return the item names in ascending order.

return
a {@link Set} of {@link String}.


	// Initializes myNamesSet on first call
	if (myNamesSet == null) {
	    myNamesSet = Collections.unmodifiableSet(nameToDescription.keySet());
	}

	return myNamesSet; // always return the same value
    
public java.lang.StringtoString()
Returns a string representation of this CompositeType instance.

The string representation consists of the name of this class (ie javax.management.openmbean.CompositeType), the type name for this instance, and the list of the items names and types string representation of this instance.

As CompositeType instances are immutable, the string representation for this instance is calculated once, on the first call to toString, and then the same value is returned for subsequent calls.

return
a string representation of this CompositeType instance


	// Calculate the string representation if it has not yet been done (ie 1st call to toString())
	//
	if (myToString == null) {
	    StringBuffer result = new StringBuffer();
	    result.append(this.getClass().getName());
	    result.append("(name=");
	    result.append(getTypeName());
	    result.append(",items=(");
	    int i=0; 
	    Iterator k=nameToType.keySet().iterator();
	    String key;
	    while (k.hasNext()) {
		key = (String) k.next();
		if (i > 0) result.append(",");
		result.append("(itemName=");
		result.append(key);
		result.append(",itemType=");
		result.append(nameToType.get(key).toString() +")");
		i++;
	    }
	    result.append("))");
	    myToString = result.toString();
	}

	// return always the same string representation for this instance (immutable)
	//
	return myToString;
