      org.opends.server.admin.GenericConstraint

public class GenericConstraint
extends Constraint

A generic constraint which comprises of an underlying condition and a description. The condition must evaluate to true in order for a new managed object to be created or modified.

Constructor Summary

GenericConstraint(AbstractManagedObjectDefinition<?,?> definition, int id, Condition condition)
Creates a new generic constraint.

Method Summary

java.util.Collection<ClientConstraintHandler>	getClientConstraintHandlers() Gets the client-side constraint handlers which will be used to enforce this constraint in client applications.
java.util.Collection<ServerConstraintHandler>	getServerConstraintHandlers() Gets the server-side constraint handlers which will be used to enforce this constraint within the server.
Message	getSynopsis() Gets the synopsis of this constraint in the default locale.
Message	getSynopsis(java.util.Locale locale) Gets the synopsis of this constraint in the specified locale.
protected void	initialize() Initializes this constraint.

Constructor Detail

GenericConstraint

public GenericConstraint(AbstractManagedObjectDefinition<?,?> definition,
                         int id,
                         Condition condition)

Creates a new generic constraint.

Parameters:

definition - The managed object definition associated with this constraint.

id - The constraint ID.

condition - The condition associated with this constraint.

Method Detail

getClientConstraintHandlers

public java.util.Collection<ClientConstraintHandler> getClientConstraintHandlers()

Gets the client-side constraint handlers which will be used to enforce this constraint in client applications. The default implementation is to return an empty set of client constraint handlers.

Overrides:

getClientConstraintHandlers in class Constraint

Returns:

Returns the client-side constraint handlers which will be used to enforce this constraint in client applications. The returned collection must not be null but maybe empty (indicating that the constraint can only be enforced on the server-side).

getServerConstraintHandlers

public java.util.Collection<ServerConstraintHandler> getServerConstraintHandlers()

Gets the server-side constraint handlers which will be used to enforce this constraint within the server. The default implementation is to return an empty set of server constraint handlers.

Overrides:

getServerConstraintHandlers in class Constraint

Returns:

Returns the server-side constraint handlers which will be used to enforce this constraint within the server. The returned collection must not be null and must not be empty, since constraints must always be enforced on the server.

getSynopsis

public final Message getSynopsis()

Gets the synopsis of this constraint in the default locale.

Returns:

Returns the synopsis of this constraint in the default locale.

getSynopsis

public final Message getSynopsis(java.util.Locale locale)

Gets the synopsis of this constraint in the specified locale.

Parameters:

locale - The locale.

Returns:

Returns the synopsis of this constraint in the specified locale.

initialize

protected void initialize()
                   throws java.lang.Exception

Initializes this constraint. The default implementation is to do nothing.

Overrides:

initialize in class Constraint

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - If this constraint could not be initialized.
