Method Detail

getId

public String getId()

Description copied from interface: Identifiable

The unique identifier for an object. This can be null.

Specified by:

getId in interface Identifiable

Returns:

the id

getName

public String getName()

Description copied from interface: FunctionParameterDefinitionContract

Returns the name of this parameters. All parameters have a name and this value can never be null or blank. The parameter name must be unique within a given function definition.

Specified by:

getName in interface FunctionParameterDefinitionContract

Returns:

the name of this function parameter definition

getDescription

public String getDescription()

Description copied from interface: FunctionParameterDefinitionContract

Returns the description of this parameter. The description is intended to provide more information about a parameter and it's appropriate usage. The description is optional and will be null if a description is not defined.

Specified by:

getDescription in interface FunctionParameterDefinitionContract

Returns:

the description of this function parameter definition, or null if this parameter has no description

getParameterType

public String getParameterType()

Description copied from interface: FunctionParameterDefinitionContract

Returns the type of this function parameter. This can be one of a set of "built-in" data types or a custom data type represented as a fully qualified java class name. All parameters must have a valid type so this method should never return null or blank.

Specified by:

getParameterType in interface FunctionParameterDefinitionContract

Returns:

the type of this function parameter definition

getFunctionId

public String getFunctionId()

Description copied from interface: FunctionParameterDefinitionContract

Returns the ID of the function to which this parameter is associated.

Specified by:

getFunctionId in interface FunctionParameterDefinitionContract

Returns:

the ID of the corresponding function

getVersionNumber

public Long getVersionNumber()

Description copied from interface: Versioned

Returns the version number for this object. In general, this value should only be null if the object has not yet been stored to a persistent data store. This version number is generally used for the purposes of optimistic locking.

Specified by:

getVersionNumber in interface Versioned

Returns:

the version number, or null if one has not been assigned yet

getSequenceNumber

public Integer getSequenceNumber()

Description copied from interface: FunctionParameterDefinitionContract

This is the sequence number of the function parameter. The sequence number identifies the position of the parameter in the function list.

Specified by:

getSequenceNumber in interface FunctionParameterDefinitionContract

Returns:

the sequence number of the function parameter
