Method Detail

cloneValue

protected VALUE cloneValue(VALUE 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.

Specified by:

cloneValue in class DmcAttribute<VALUE extends DmcFilter>

Parameters:

original - the original value

Returns:

A clone of the value.

deserializeValue

public VALUE deserializeValue(DmcInputStreamIF dis)
                       throws Exception

Description copied from class: DmcAttribute

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

Specified by:

deserializeValue in class DmcAttribute<VALUE extends DmcFilter>

Parameters:

dis - the input stream.

Returns:

A value read from the input stream.

Throws:

Exception - if problems occur

serializeValue

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

Description copied from class: DmcAttribute

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

Specified by:

serializeValue in class DmcAttribute<VALUE extends DmcFilter>

Parameters:

dos - The output stream.

value - The value to be serialized.

Throws:

Exception - if problems occur

typeCheck

protected VALUE 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.

Specified by:

typeCheck in class DmcAttribute<VALUE extends DmcFilter>

Parameters:

value - the value to be checked

Returns:

a value holder

Throws:

DmcValueException - if the value is incorrect
