Method Detail

getValueRole

public String getValueRole()

Can be one of "Value", "Resource", "Content", "Field", "Group", "Query", "Message", "Bundle-Key", "Bundle-Name", "Name", "ElementName",

Specified by:

getValueRole in interface AttributeMetaData

Returns:

isDesignTimeValue

public boolean isDesignTimeValue()

Description copied from interface: AttributeMetaData

Indicates whether this attribute is a design-time value. Such values will not be computed at runtime and any expression given for that attribute will be ignored.

Specified by:

isDesignTimeValue in interface AttributeMetaData

Returns:

isBulk

public boolean isBulk()

Specified by:

isBulk in interface AttributeMetaData

isComputed

public boolean isComputed()

Description copied from interface: AttributeMetaData

Indicates if this attribute is computed. This indicates that values of the attribute will be computed at runtime and any value set in the element itself is merely there for caching purposes and can be removed before writing the PRPT file, before serializing and before deriving an element.

Specified by:

isComputed in interface AttributeMetaData

isTransient

public boolean isTransient()

Description copied from interface: AttributeMetaData

Indicates whether this attribute should be omitted when element is serialized to disk or written into a PRPT file. Only mark attributes as transient which contain values that have been handled elsewhere.

Specified by:

isTransient in interface AttributeMetaData

isMandatory

public boolean isMandatory()

Specified by:

isMandatory in interface AttributeMetaData

getNameSpace

public String getNameSpace()

Specified by:

getNameSpace in interface AttributeMetaData

getTargetType

public Class getTargetType()

Specified by:

getTargetType in interface AttributeMetaData

getEditor

public PropertyEditor getEditor()

Description copied from interface: AttributeMetaData

This method can return null if there is no property editor registered for this type.

Specified by:

getEditor in interface AttributeMetaData

Returns:

getReferencedFields

public String[] getReferencedFields(ReportElement element,
                                    Object attributeValue)

Specified by:

getReferencedFields in interface AttributeMetaData

getReferencedGroups

public String[] getReferencedGroups(ReportElement element,
                                    Object attributeValue)

Specified by:

getReferencedGroups in interface AttributeMetaData

getReferencedResources

public ResourceReference[] getReferencedResources(ReportElement element,
                                                  org.pentaho.reporting.libraries.resourceloader.ResourceManager resourceManager,
                                                  Object attributeValue)

Specified by:

getReferencedResources in interface AttributeMetaData

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object

getExtraCalculationFields

public String[] getExtraCalculationFields()

Specified by:

getExtraCalculationFields in interface AttributeMetaData
