Field Details

name

protected String name

The name of the feature. It is recommended that subclasses call getName() rather than reading this field, and that they not change it.

description

protected String description

The human-readable description of the feature. It is recommended that subclasses call getDescription() rather than reading this field, and that they not change it.

Constructor Details

MBeanFeatureInfo

public MBeanFeatureInfo(String name, String description)

Constructs an MBeanFeatureInfo object. This constructor is equivalent to

MBeanFeatureInfo(name,
description, (Descriptor) null

Parameters:: name - The name of the feature.; description - A human readable description of the feature.

MBeanFeatureInfo

public MBeanFeatureInfo(String name, String description, Descriptor descriptor)

Constructs an MBeanFeatureInfo object.

Parameters:: name - The name of the feature.; description - A human readable description of the feature.; descriptor - The descriptor for the feature. This may be null which is equivalent to an empty descriptor.
Since:: 1.6

Method Details

getName

public String getName()

Returns the name of the feature.

Returns:: the name of the feature.

getDescription

public String getDescription()

Returns the human-readable description of the feature.

Returns:: the human-readable description of the feature.

getDescriptor

public Descriptor getDescriptor()

Returns the descriptor for the feature. Changing the returned value will have no affect on the original descriptor.

Specified by:: getDescriptor in interface DescriptorRead
Returns:: a descriptor that is either immutable or a copy of the original.
Since:: 1.6

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)

Compare this MBeanFeatureInfo to another.

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

o - the object to compare to.

Returns:

true if and only if o is an MBeanFeatureInfo such that its getName(), getDescription(), and getDescriptor() values are equal (not necessarily identical) to those of this MBeanFeatureInfo.
