Class BaseAttributeType<OwningType extends Customizable<?>>

java.lang.Object

org.openmrs.BaseOpenmrsObject

org.openmrs.BaseOpenmrsMetadata

org.openmrs.attribute.BaseAttributeType<OwningType>

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, AttributeType<OwningType>, Auditable, CustomValueDescriptor, RepeatingCustomValueDescriptor, OpenmrsMetadata, OpenmrsObject, Retireable

Direct Known Subclasses:

LocationAttributeType, ProviderAttributeType, VisitAttributeType

@MappedSuperclass
public abstract class BaseAttributeType<OwningType extends Customizable<?>>
extends BaseOpenmrsMetadata
implements AttributeType<OwningType>

Abstract base implementation of AttributeType. Actual implementations (e.g. VisitAttributeType, ProviderAttributeType) should be able to extend this and provide very little of their own code.

Since:

1.9

Method Detail

getMinOccurs

public java.lang.Integer getMinOccurs()

Description copied from interface: RepeatingCustomValueDescriptor

Implementations should never return null. Positive return values indicate a "required" value.

Specified by:

getMinOccurs in interface RepeatingCustomValueDescriptor

Returns:

the minimum number of values of this type that must be present for the owner to be valid

See Also:

RepeatingCustomValueDescriptor.getMinOccurs()

getMaxOccurs

public java.lang.Integer getMaxOccurs()

Description copied from interface: RepeatingCustomValueDescriptor

Implementation should never return a number <= 0.

Specified by:

getMaxOccurs in interface RepeatingCustomValueDescriptor

Returns:

the maximum number of values of this type that may be present for the owner to be valid

See Also:

RepeatingCustomValueDescriptor.getMaxOccurs()

getDatatypeClassname

public java.lang.String getDatatypeClassname()

Description copied from interface: CustomValueDescriptor

Return the name of a class that implements CustomDatatype.

Specified by:

getDatatypeClassname in interface CustomValueDescriptor

Returns:

the datatype used to store this custom value

See Also:

CustomValueDescriptor.getDatatypeClassname()

getDatatypeConfig

public java.lang.String getDatatypeConfig()

Description copied from interface: CustomValueDescriptor

May be null.

Specified by:

getDatatypeConfig in interface CustomValueDescriptor

Returns:

the configuration to be passed to the datatype. For example if the datatype is RegexValidatedString the datatypeConfig would be the regular expression

See Also:

CustomValueDescriptor.getDatatypeConfig()

getPreferredHandlerClassname

public java.lang.String getPreferredHandlerClassname()

Description copied from interface: CustomValueDescriptor

May be null.

Specified by:

getPreferredHandlerClassname in interface CustomValueDescriptor

Returns:

the fully-qualified classname of the preferred CustomDatatypeHandler chosen by the system administrator for this attribute type.

See Also:

CustomValueDescriptor.getPreferredHandlerClassname()

getHandlerConfig

public java.lang.String getHandlerConfig()

Description copied from interface: CustomValueDescriptor

May be null.

Specified by:

getHandlerConfig in interface CustomValueDescriptor

Returns:

the configuration to be passed to the handler for a datatype. For example if the datatype is "regex-validated-string", the handlerConfig would be the regular expression.

See Also:

CustomValueDescriptor.getHandlerConfig()

setMinOccurs

public void setMinOccurs(java.lang.Integer minOccurs)

Parameters:

minOccurs - the minOccurs to set

setMaxOccurs

public void setMaxOccurs(java.lang.Integer maxOccurs)

Parameters:

setDatatypeClassname

public void setDatatypeClassname(java.lang.String datatypeClassname)

Parameters:

datatypeClassname - the datatypeClassname to set

setDatatypeConfig

public void setDatatypeConfig(java.lang.String datatypeConfig)

Parameters:

datatypeConfig - the datatypeConfig to set

setPreferredHandlerClassname

public void setPreferredHandlerClassname(java.lang.String preferredHandlerClassname)

Parameters:

preferredHandlerClassname - the preferredHandlerClassname to set

setHandlerConfig

public void setHandlerConfig(java.lang.String handlerConfig)

Parameters:

handlerConfig - the handlerConfig to set
