Method Details
getTabularType
Returns the tabular type describing this
TabularData
instance.
Returns:
the tabular type.calculateIndex
Calculates the index that would be used in this
TabularData
instance to refer to the specified composite data value parameter if it were added to this instance. This method checks for the type validity of the specified value, but does not check if the calculated index is already used to refer to a value in thisTabularData
instance.
Parameters:
value
- the composite data value whose index in thisTabularData
instance is to be calculated; must be of the same composite type as this instance's row type; must not be null.
Returns:
the index that the specified value would have in thisTabularData
instance.
Throws:
[NullPointerException](../../../../java.base/java/lang/NullPointerException.html "class in java.lang")
- if value isnull
[InvalidOpenTypeException](InvalidOpenTypeException.html "class in javax.management.openmbean")
- if value does not conform to thisTabularData
instance's row type definition.size
int size()
Returns the number ofCompositeData
values (ie the number of rows) contained in thisTabularData
instance.
Returns:
the number of values contained.isEmpty
boolean isEmpty()
Returnstrue
if the number ofCompositeData
values (ie the number of rows) contained in thisTabularData
instance is zero.
Returns:
true if thisTabularData
is empty.containsKey
boolean containsKey(Object[] key)
Returnstrue
if and only if thisTabularData
instance contains aCompositeData
value (ie a row) whose index is the specified key. If key isnull
or does not conform to thisTabularData
instance'sTabularType
definition, this method simply returnsfalse
.
Parameters:
key
- the index value whose presence in thisTabularData
instance is to be tested.
Returns:
true
if thisTabularData
indexes a row value with the specified key.containsValue
Returns
true
if and only if thisTabularData
instance contains the specifiedCompositeData
value. If value isnull
or does not conform to thisTabularData
instance's row type definition, this method simply returnsfalse
.
Parameters:
value
- the row value whose presence in thisTabularData
instance is to be tested.
Returns:
true
if thisTabularData
instance contains the specified row value.get
Returns the
CompositeData
value whose index iskey, ornull
if there is no value mapping to key, in thisTabularData
instance.
Parameters:
key
- the key of the row to return.
Returns:
the value corresponding to key.
Throws:
[NullPointerException](../../../../java.base/java/lang/NullPointerException.html "class in java.lang")
- if the key isnull
[InvalidKeyException](InvalidKeyException.html "class in javax.management.openmbean")
- if the key does not conform to thisTabularData
instance's *TabularType
definitionput
Adds value to this
TabularData
instance. The composite type of value must be the same as this instance's row type (ie the composite type returned bythis.getTabularType().[getRowType()](TabularType.html#getRowType%28%29)
), and there must not already be an existing value in thisTabularData
instance whose index is the same as the one calculated for the value to be added. The index for value is calculated according to thisTabularData
instance'sTabularType
definition (seeTabularType.[getIndexNames()](TabularType.html#getIndexNames%28%29)
).
Parameters:
value
- the composite data value to be added as a new row to thisTabularData
instance; must be of the same composite type as this instance's row type; must not be null.
Throws:
[NullPointerException](../../../../java.base/java/lang/NullPointerException.html "class in java.lang")
- if value isnull
[InvalidOpenTypeException](InvalidOpenTypeException.html "class in javax.management.openmbean")
- if value does not conform to thisTabularData
instance's row type definition.
[KeyAlreadyExistsException](KeyAlreadyExistsException.html "class in javax.management.openmbean")
- if the index for value, calculated according to thisTabularData
instance'sTabularType
definition already maps to an existing value in the underlying HashMap.remove
Removes the
CompositeData
value whose index is key from thisTabularData
instance, and returns the removed value, or returnsnull
if there is no value whose index is key.
Parameters:
key
- the index of the value to get in thisTabularData
instance; must be valid with thisTabularData
instance's row type definition; must not be null.
Returns:
previous value associated with specified key, ornull
if there was no mapping for key.
Throws:
[NullPointerException](../../../../java.base/java/lang/NullPointerException.html "class in java.lang")
- if the key isnull
[InvalidKeyException](InvalidKeyException.html "class in javax.management.openmbean")
- if the key does not conform to thisTabularData
instance'sTabularType
definitionputAll
Add all the elements in values to this
TabularData
instance. If any element in values does not satisfy the constraints defined in put, or if any two elements in values have the same index calculated according to thisTabularData
instance'sTabularType
definition, then an exception describing the failure is thrown and no element of values is added, thus leaving thisTabularData
instance unchanged.
Parameters:
values
- the array of composite data values to be added as new rows to thisTabularData
instance; if values isnull
or empty, this method returns without doing anything.
Throws:
[NullPointerException](../../../../java.base/java/lang/NullPointerException.html "class in java.lang")
- if an element of values isnull
[InvalidOpenTypeException](InvalidOpenTypeException.html "class in javax.management.openmbean")
- if an element of values does not conform to thisTabularData
instance's row type definition
[KeyAlreadyExistsException](KeyAlreadyExistsException.html "class in javax.management.openmbean")
- if the index for an element of values, calculated according to thisTabularData
instance'sTabularType
definition already maps to an existing value in this instance, or two elements of values have the same index.clear
void clear()
Removes allCompositeData
values (ie rows) from thisTabularData
instance.keySet
Set keySet() Returns a set view of the keys (ie the index values) of the`CompositeData` values (ie the rows) contained in this`TabularData` instance. The returned `Set` is a`Set>
but is declared as a
Set` for compatibility reasons. The returned set can be used to iterate over the keys. Returns: a set view (`Set>) of the index values used in this
TabularData` instance.values
Returns a collection view of the
CompositeData
values (ie the rows) contained in thisTabularData
instance. The returnedCollection
is aCollection<CompositeData>
but is declared as aCollection<?>
for compatibility reasons. The returned collection can be used to iterate over the values.
Returns:
a collection view (Collection<CompositeData>
) of the rows contained in thisTabularData
instance.equals
boolean equals(Object obj)
Compares the specified obj parameter with thisTabularData
instance for equality.
Returnstrue
if and only if all of the following statements are true:
* obj is non null,
* obj also implements theTabularData
interface,
* their row types are equal
* their contents (ie index to value mappings) are equal
This ensures that thisequals
method works properly for obj parameters which are different implementations of theTabularData
interface.
Overrides:
[equals](../../../../java.base/java/lang/Object.html#equals%28java.lang.Object%29)
in class[Object](../../../../java.base/java/lang/Object.html "class in java.lang")
Parameters:
obj
- the object to be compared for equality with thisTabularData
instance;
Returns:
true
if the specified object is equal to thisTabularData
instance.
See Also:
Object.hashCode(), HashMaphashCode
int hashCode()
Returns the hash code value for thisTabularData
instance.
The hash code of aTabularData
instance is the sum of the hash codes of all elements of information used inequals
comparisons (ie: its tabular type and its content, where the content is defined as all the index to value mappings).
This ensures thatt1.equals(t2)
implies thatt1.hashCode()==t2.hashCode()
for any twoTabularDataSupport
instancest1
andt2
, as required by the general contract of the methodObject.hashCode().
Overrides:
[hashCode](../../../../java.base/java/lang/Object.html#hashCode%28%29)
in class[Object](../../../../java.base/java/lang/Object.html "class in java.lang")
Returns:
the hash code value for thisTabularDataSupport
instance
See Also:
Object.equals(java.lang.Object), System.identityHashCode(java.lang.Object)toString
Returns a string representation of this
TabularData
instance.
The string representation consists of the name of the implementing class, and the tabular type of this instance.
Overrides:
[toString](../../../../java.base/java/lang/Object.html#toString%28%29)
in class[Object](../../../../java.base/java/lang/Object.html "class in java.lang")
Returns:
a string representation of thisTabularData
instance
