Constructor Detail

ServiceLocationAttribute

public ServiceLocationAttribute(java.lang.String pId,
                                java.util.Vector pValues)

Construct a service location attribute. Errors in the id or values vector result in an IllegalArgumentException.

Parameters:

pId - The attribute name. The String can consist of any Unicode character.

pValues - A Vector of one or more attribute values. Vector contents must be uniform in type and one of Integer, String, Boolean, or byte[]. If the attribute is a keyword attribute, then the parameter should be null. String values can consist of any Unicode character.

ServiceLocationAttribute

public ServiceLocationAttribute(java.lang.String pString)
                         throws ServiceLocationException

Construct a service location attribute from a String.

Parameters:

pString - The string to parse

Throws:

ServiceLocationException - When the string parsing failed

Method Detail

escapeId

public static java.lang.String escapeId(java.lang.String pId)

Returns an escaped version of the id parameter, suitable for inclusion in a query. Any reserved characters as specified in [7] are escaped using UTF-8 encoding. If any characters in the tag are illegal, throws IllegalArgumentException.

Parameters:

pId - The attribute id to escape. ServiceLocationException is thrown if any characters are illegal for an attribute tag.

Returns:

The escaped version

escapeValue

public static java.lang.String escapeValue(java.lang.Object pValue)

Returns a String containing the escaped value parameter as a string, suitable for inclusion in a query. If the parameter is a string, any reserved characters as specified in [7] are escaped using UTF-8 encoding. If the parameter is a byte array, then the escaped string begins with the nonUTF-8 sequence `\ff` and the rest of the string consists of the escaped bytes, which is the encoding for opaques. If the value parameter is a Boolean or Integer, then the returned string contains the object converted into a string. If the value is any type other than String, Integer, Boolean or byte[], an IllegalArgumentException is thrown.

Parameters:

pValue - The attribute value to be converted into a string and escaped.

Returns:

The escaped value

getValues

public java.util.Vector getValues()

Returns a cloned vector of attribute values, or null if the attribute is a keyword attribute. If the attribute is single-valued, then the vector contains only one object.

Returns:

The value vector

getId

public java.lang.String getId()

Returns the attribute's name.

Returns:

The name (id)

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object obj)

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

hashCode

public int hashCode()
