OpenMBeanConstructorInfo

public interface OpenMBeanConstructorInfo

Describes a constructor of an Open MBean.

This interface declares the same methods as the class {@link javax.management.MBeanConstructorInfo}. A class implementing this interface (typically {@link OpenMBeanConstructorInfoSupport}) should extend {@link javax.management.MBeanConstructorInfo}.

The {@link #getSignature()} method should return at runtime an array of instances of a subclass of {@link MBeanParameterInfo} which implements the {@link OpenMBeanParameterInfo} interface (typically {@link OpenMBeanParameterInfoSupport}).

Fields Summary
Constructors Summary
Methods Summary
public booleanequals(java.lang.Object obj)
Compares the specified obj parameter with this OpenMBeanConstructorInfo instance for equality.

Returns true if and only if all of the following statements are true:

  • obj is non null,
  • obj also implements the OpenMBeanConstructorInfo interface,
  • their names are equal
  • their signatures are equal.
This ensures that this equals method works properly for obj parameters which are different implementations of the OpenMBeanConstructorInfo interface.
 

param
obj the object to be compared for equality with this OpenMBeanConstructorInfo instance;
return
true if the specified object is equal to this OpenMBeanConstructorInfo instance.

public java.lang.StringgetDescription()
Returns a human readable description of the constructor described by this OpenMBeanConstructorInfo instance.

return
the description.

public java.lang.StringgetName()
Returns the name of the constructor described by this OpenMBeanConstructorInfo instance.

return
the name.

public javax.management.MBeanParameterInfo[]getSignature()
Returns an array of OpenMBeanParameterInfo instances describing each parameter in the signature of the constructor described by this OpenMBeanConstructorInfo instance.

return
the signature.

public inthashCode()
Returns the hash code value for this OpenMBeanConstructorInfo instance.

The hash code of an OpenMBeanConstructorInfo instance is the sum of the hash codes of all elements of information used in equals comparisons (ie: its name and signature, where the signature hashCode is calculated by a call to java.util.Arrays.asList(this.getSignature).hashCode()).

This ensures that t1.equals(t2) implies that t1.hashCode()==t2.hashCode() for any two OpenMBeanConstructorInfo instances t1 and t2, as required by the general contract of the method {@link Object#hashCode() Object.hashCode()}.

return
the hash code value for this OpenMBeanConstructorInfo instance

public java.lang.StringtoString()
Returns a string representation of this OpenMBeanConstructorInfo instance.

The string representation consists of the name of this class (ie javax.management.openmbean.OpenMBeanConstructorInfo), and the name and signature of the described constructor.

return
a string representation of this OpenMBeanConstructorInfo instance
