DefaultRecord
- All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable
,Record
A list of logically related elements as (name, value) pairs in a dictionary.
By definition, all record fields have a [1 … 1] multiplicity
(for a more flexible construct, see features).
Since all fields are expected to be assigned a value, the initial values on
DefaultRecord
instantiation are unspecified. Some may be null, or some may be zero.
Limitations
- Multi-threading:
DefaultRecord
instances are not thread-safe. Synchronization, if needed, shall be done externally by the caller. - Serialization: this class is serializable if the associated
RecordType
and all values are also serializable. Note in particular thatDefaultRecordSchema
is currently not serializable, so users wanting serialization may need to define their own schema implementation.

DefaultRecord
Creates a new record for the given record type. The initial values are unspecified - they may be null or zero. Callers can assign values by a call tosetAll(Object[])
.- Parameters:
type
- the type definition of the new record.
-
DefaultRecord
Creates a new record initialized to a shallow copy of the given record. The fields contained in the given record are not recursively copied.- Parameters:
record
- the record to copy (cannot be null).- Since:

Method Details

castOrCopy
Returns a SIS implementation with the name and fields of the given arbitrary implementation. This method performs the first applicable action in the following choices:- If the given object is
null
, then this method returnsnull
. - Otherwise if the given object is already an instance of
DefaultRecord
, then it is returned unchanged. - Otherwise a new
DefaultRecord
instance is created using the copy constructor and returned. Note that this is a shallow copy operation, since the fields contained in the given object are not recursively copied.
- Parameters:
other
- The object to get as a SIS implementation, ornull
if none.- Returns:
- A SIS implementation containing the fields of the given object
(may be the given object itself), or
null
if the argument wasnull
. - Since:
- 0.8
- If the given object is

getRecordType

- the type definition of this record.

setAll
Sets all attribute values in this record, in attribute order.- Parameters:
newValues
- the attribute values.- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException
