Method Detail

getActionType

public static int getActionType(Action action,
                                boolean isActiveLinkAction)

take the workflow action, and return an action type that is defined in API Constants class. The type that returned matches with the on define in ARSystem C API.

Parameters:

action - action object

isActiveLinkAction - if it is an activelink action. Some actions, such as Push Field or Set Field exists in both activelink and filter. However, we use a different type to distingush between active link action and filter action. Active link is a client side logic, while Filter represents a server side logic.

Returns:

the action type for the given Action instance.

             throws CloneNotSupportedException

Clone implementation that returns an Object with data cloned from self.

Overrides:

clone in class Object

Throws:

CloneNotSupportedException

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Use this method for checking equality between the current object and the provided one. The result is true only if the argument is not null, is of the same type and represents the same content.

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

obj - the object that we are comparing to

Returns:

returns a boolean that tells if the two objects equal

equals

public boolean equals(Object anObject,
                      String lhsServer,
                      String lhsForm,
                      String rhsServer,
                      String rhsForm)

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns the hash code value for this instance of the current class. This method is supported as required by the general contract of Object.hashCode, for the benefit of hash tables such as those provided by java.util.Hashtable.

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

Returns:

returns the hash code for this instance

toString

public String toString()

Returns a string description of the object.

Overrides:

toString in class Object
