      Modifier and Type Method Description
      abstract void clear()
      Clears the values in this AttributeImpl and resets it to its default value.
      AttributeImpl clone()
      In most cases the clone is, and should be, deep in order to be able to properly capture the state of all attributes.
      abstract void copyTo​(AttributeImpl target)
      Copies the values from this Attribute into the passed-in target attribute.
      void end()
      Clears the values in this AttributeImpl and resets it to its value at the end of the field.
      java.lang.String reflectAsString​(boolean prependAttClass)
      This method returns the current attribute values as a string in the following format by calling the reflectWith(AttributeReflector) method: iff prependAttClass=true: "AttributeClass#key=value,AttributeClass#key=value" iff prependAttClass=false: "key=value,key=value"
      abstract void reflectWith​(AttributeReflector reflector)
      This method is for introspection of attributes, it should simply add the key/values this attribute holds to the given AttributeReflector.

      • clear

        public abstract void clear()
        Clears the values in this AttributeImpl and resets it to its default value. If this implementation implements more than one Attribute interface it clears all.
      • end

        public void end()
        Clears the values in this AttributeImpl and resets it to its value at the end of the field. If this implementation implements more than one Attribute interface it clears all.

        The default implementation simply calls clear()

      • reflectAsString

        public final java.lang.String reflectAsString​(boolean prependAttClass)
        This method returns the current attribute values as a string in the following format by calling the reflectWith(AttributeReflector) method:
        • iff prependAttClass=true: "AttributeClass#key=value,AttributeClass#key=value"
        • iff prependAttClass=false: "key=value,key=value"

      • copyTo

        public abstract void copyTo​(AttributeImpl target)
        Copies the values from this Attribute into the passed-in target attribute. The target implementation must support all the Attributes this implementation supports.
      • clone

        In most cases the clone is, and should be, deep in order to be able to properly capture the state of all attributes.
