  • Method Details

    • hasID

      default boolean hasID(@Nullable String sID)

    • getDebugID

      @Nonnull @Nonempty String getDebugID()
      Returns:
      The debug ID of this element. Neither null nor empty. The debug ID is usually automatically created automatically from the ID.

    • isVertSplittable

      default boolean isVertSplittable()
      Returns:
      true if this element is splittable, false otherwise.

    • getAsSplittable

      @Nonnull default IPLSplittableObject<?,?> getAsSplittable()
      Returns:
      this as an IPLSplittableObject - ensure to call it only if isVertSplittable() returns true.

    • setBasicDataFrom

      @Nonnull @OverridingMethodsMustInvokeSuper IMPLTYPE setBasicDataFrom(@Nonnull IMPLTYPE aSource)
      For copying stuff internally. Must always call super method
      Parameters:
      aSource - Source object to copy from. May not be null.
      Returns:
      this for chaining
