description - cannot be a null or empty string.
openType - cannot be null.
defaultValue - must be a valid value for the openType specified for this parameter; default value not supported for ArrayType and TabularType; can be null, in which case it means that no default value is set.

Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if name or description are null or empty string, or openType is null.
OpenDataException - if defaultValue is not a valid value for the specified openType, or one value in legalValues is not valid for the specified openType, or defaultValue is non null and openType is an ArrayType or a TabularType, or legalValues is non null and non empty and openType is an ArrayType or a TabularType, or legalValues is non null and non empty and defaultValue is not contained in legalValues.

Constructs an OpenMBeanParameterInfoSupport instance, which describes the parameter used in one or more operations or constructors of a class of open MBeans, with the specified name, openType, description, defaultValue, minValue and maxValue. It is possible to specify minimal and maximal values only for an open type whose values are Comparable.

Parameters:
name - cannot be a null or empty string.
description - cannot be a null or empty string.
openType - cannot be null.
defaultValue - must be a valid value for the openType specified for this parameter; default value not supported for ArrayType and TabularType; can be null, in which case it means that no default value is set.
minValue - must be valid for the openType specified for this parameter; can be null, in which case it means that no minimal value is set.
maxValue - must be valid for the openType specified for this parameter; can be null, in which case it means that no maximal value is set.
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if name or description are null or empty string, or openType is null.
OpenDataException - if defaultValue, minValue or maxValue is not a valid value for the specified openType, or defaultValue is non null and openType is an ArrayType or a TabularType, or both minValue and maxValue are non-null and minValue.compareTo(maxValue) > 0 is true, or both defaultValue and minValue are non-null and minValue.compareTo(defaultValue) > 0 is true, or both defaultValue and maxValue are non-null and defaultValue.compareTo(maxValue) > 0 is true.

isValue

public boolean isValue(Object obj)
Tests whether obj is a valid value for the parameter described by this OpenMBeanParameterInfo instance.

Parameters:
obj - the object to be tested.
Returns:

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)
Compares the specified obj parameter with this OpenMBeanParameterInfoSupport instance for equality.

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

This ensures that this equals method works properly for obj parameters which are different implementations of the OpenMBeanParameterInfo interface.
 

Specified by:
equals in interface OpenMBeanParameterInfo
Overrides:

Parameters:
obj - the object to be compared for equality with this OpenMBeanParameterInfoSupport instance;
Returns:

See Also:
Object.hashCode(), Hashtable

hashCode

public int hashCode()
Returns the hash code value for this OpenMBeanParameterInfoSupport instance.

The hash code of an OpenMBeanParameterInfoSupport instance is the sum of the hash codes of all elements of information used in equals comparisons (ie: its name, its open type, and its default, min, max and legal values).

This ensures that t1.equals(t2) implies that t1.hashCode()==t2.hashCode() for any two OpenMBeanParameterInfoSupport instances t1 and t2, as required by the general contract of the method Object.hashCode().

However, note that another instance of a class implementing the OpenMBeanParameterInfo interface may be equal to this OpenMBeanParameterInfoSupport instance as defined by equals(java.lang.Object), but may have a different hash code if it is calculated differently.

As OpenMBeanParameterInfoSupport 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.

Specified by:
hashCode in interface OpenMBeanParameterInfo
Overrides:
hashCode in class MBeanParameterInfo
Returns:
the hash code value for this OpenMBeanParameterInfoSupport instance
See Also:
Object.equals(java.lang.Object), Hashtable

toString

public String toString()
Returns a string representation of this OpenMBeanParameterInfoSupport instance.

The string representation consists of the name of this class (ie javax.management.openmbean.OpenMBeanParameterInfoSupport), the string representation of the name and open type of the described parameter, and the string representation of its default, min, max and legal values.

As OpenMBeanParameterInfoSupport 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.

Specified by:
toString in interface OpenMBeanParameterInfo
Overrides:
toString in class Object
Returns:
a string representation of this OpenMBeanParameterInfoSupport instance
