ColumnFieldLimit

public ColumnFieldLimit(int parent,
                        int data,
                        int dataSource,
                        int length)

Constructs a new ColumnLimitInfo object.

Parameters:

parent - Field ID of parent field the column belongs to.

data - Field ID of data field.

dataSource - Data source for the field

length - Column length to display.

Method Detail

getParent

public int getParent()

Returns the FieldID of the parent field the column belongs to.

getDataField

public int getDataField()

Returns the FieldID of the data field.

getDataSource

public int getDataSource()

Returns the data source. You can return the following constant values:

• Constants.AR_COLUMN_LIMIT_DATASOURCE_DATA_FIELD -- 0, from regular dataField.
• Constants.AR_COLUMN_LIMIT_DATASOURCE_DISPLAY_FIELD -- 1, from display-only dataField.
• Constants.AR_COLUMN_LIMIT_DATASOURCE_CONTROL_FIELD -- 2, from local control field.
• Constants.AR_COLUMN_LIMIT_DATASOURCE_TRIM_FIELD -- 3, from local trim field.
• Constants.AR_COLUMN_LIMIT_DATASOURCE_VIEW_FIELD -- 4, from local view field.

getColumnLength

public int getColumnLength()

Returns the maximum column length to display.

setParent

public void setParent(int parent)

Sets the FieldID of the parent field the column belongs to.

setDataField

public void setDataField(int data)

Sets the FieldID of the data field.

setDataSource

public void setDataSource(int dataSource)

Sets the data source.

setColumnLength

public void setColumnLength(int length)

Sets the maximum column length to display.

clone

public Object clone()
             throws CloneNotSupportedException

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

Overrides:

clone in class FieldLimit

Throws:

CloneNotSupportedException

toString

public String toString()

Returns a string description of the object.

Overrides:

toString in class FieldLimit

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 FieldLimit

Returns:

returns the hash code for this instance

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 FieldLimit

Parameters:

obj - the object that we are comparing to

Returns:

returns a boolean that tells if the two objects equal
