Class BasicEntity

java.lang.Object
  org.eclipse.higgins.idas.spi.BasicEntity

All Implemented Interfaces:

IAttributeContainer, org.eclipse.higgins.idas.api.IBlankEntity, org.eclipse.higgins.idas.api.IEntity, org.eclipse.higgins.idas.api.IHasAttributes

public class BasicEntity

extends Object

implements org.eclipse.higgins.idas.api.IEntity, IAttributeContainer

Basic implementation of IEntity. The intent of this abstract class is to be used by Context Provider writers as a superclass for IEntity instances. The benefits of using this class are that you will pick up any convenience methods as well as have the latest methods stubbed out such that when new methods are added to IEntity and implemented here, the subclass will still compile.
