public interface Attribute extends Serializable

Interface Attribute is the base interface implemented by any and every printing attribute class to indicate that the class represents a printing attribute. All printing attributes are serializable.

• Method Summary

• Method Details

  • getCategory

  Get the printing attribute class which is to be used as the "category" for this printing attribute value when it is added to an attribute set.
  Returns:
  printing attribute class (category), an instance of classjava.lang.Class

  • getName

  Get the name of the category of which this attribute value is an instance.
  Note: This method is intended to provide a default, nonlocalized string for the attribute's category. If two attribute objects return the same category from the getCategory() method, they should return the same name from the getName() method.
  Returns:
  attribute category name
