Method Detail

cloneValue

public ClassFilter cloneValue(ClassFilter original)

Description copied from class: DmcAttribute

This method must be overridden to clone whatever value is stored in this attribute. The concept of clone constructors was considered, but this doesn't work for enumerated values.

Overrides:

cloneValue in class DmcTypeDmcFilter<ClassFilter>

Parameters:

original - the original value

Returns:

A clone of the value.

deserializeValue

public ClassFilter deserializeValue(DmcInputStreamIF dis)
                             throws Exception

Description copied from class: DmcAttribute

This method must be overridden to read a single value from the input stream.

Overrides:

deserializeValue in class DmcTypeDmcFilter<ClassFilter>

Parameters:

dis - the input stream.

Returns:

A value read from the input stream.

Throws:

Exception - if problems occur

serializeValue

public void serializeValue(DmcOutputStreamIF dos,
                           ClassFilter value)
                    throws Exception

Description copied from class: DmcAttribute

This method must be overridden to serialize the specified value to the output stream.

Overrides:

serializeValue in class DmcTypeDmcFilter<ClassFilter>

Parameters:

dos - The output stream.

value - The value to be serialized.

Throws:

Exception - if problems occur

typeCheck

public ClassFilter typeCheck(Object value)
                      throws DmcValueException

Description copied from class: DmcAttribute

Derived classes must overload this method to determine if the value passed in conforms with their type criteria.

Overrides:

typeCheck in class DmcTypeDmcFilter<ClassFilter>

Parameters:

value - the value to be checked

Returns:

a value holder

Throws:

DmcValueException - if the value is incorrect
