All Superinterfaces:

RefAssociation, RefBaseObject

All Known Implementing Classes:

TupleDescriptorAttrs$Hib

public interface TupleDescriptorAttrs
extends RefAssociation

TupleDescriptorAttrs association proxy interface.

Note: This type should not be subclassed, implemented or directly instantiated by clients. It is generated from a MOF metamodel and implemented by Enki or MDR.

Method Summary

boolean	add(FemTupleDescriptor tupleDescriptor, FemTupleAttrDescriptor attrDescriptor) Creates a link between the pair of instance objects in the associations link set.
boolean	exists(FemTupleDescriptor tupleDescriptor, FemTupleAttrDescriptor attrDescriptor) Queries whether a link currently exists between a given pair of instance objects in the associations link set.
List<FemTupleAttrDescriptor>	getAttrDescriptor(FemTupleDescriptor tupleDescriptor) Queries the instance objects that are related to a particular instance object by a link in the current associations link set.
FemTupleDescriptor	getTupleDescriptor(FemTupleAttrDescriptor attrDescriptor) Queries the instance object that is related to a particular instance object by a link in the current associations link set.
boolean	remove(FemTupleDescriptor tupleDescriptor, FemTupleAttrDescriptor attrDescriptor) Removes a link between a pair of instance objects in the current associations link set.

Method Detail

exists

boolean exists(FemTupleDescriptor tupleDescriptor,
               FemTupleAttrDescriptor attrDescriptor)

Queries whether a link currently exists between a given pair of instance objects in the associations link set.

Parameters:

tupleDescriptor - Value of the first association end.

attrDescriptor - Value of the second association end.

Returns:

Returns true if the queried link exists.

getTupleDescriptor

FemTupleDescriptor getTupleDescriptor(FemTupleAttrDescriptor attrDescriptor)

Queries the instance object that is related to a particular instance object by a link in the current associations link set.

Parameters:

attrDescriptor - Required value of the second association end.

Returns:

Related object or null if none exists.

getAttrDescriptor

List<FemTupleAttrDescriptor> getAttrDescriptor(FemTupleDescriptor tupleDescriptor)

Queries the instance objects that are related to a particular instance object by a link in the current associations link set.

Parameters:

tupleDescriptor - Required value of the first association end.

Returns:

List of related objects.

add

boolean add(FemTupleDescriptor tupleDescriptor,
            FemTupleAttrDescriptor attrDescriptor)

Creates a link between the pair of instance objects in the associations link set.

Parameters:

tupleDescriptor - Value of the first association end.

attrDescriptor - Value of the second association end.

remove

boolean remove(FemTupleDescriptor tupleDescriptor,
               FemTupleAttrDescriptor attrDescriptor)

Removes a link between a pair of instance objects in the current associations link set.

Parameters:

tupleDescriptor - Value of the first association end.

attrDescriptor - Value of the second association end.
