Interface ParameterService

All Superinterfaces:

DataParameterService

All Known Implementing Classes:

BitOffsetParameter, ByteOffsetParameter, FieldParameter, ListParameters, MapParameters, OffsetParameter, Parameter, Parameters, SimpleIntegerParameter, SimpleParameter, TagParameter

public interface ParameterService
extends DataParameterService

The ParameterService interface defines the ParameterService concept. A ParameterService is used to describe the location and type of a piece of data contained within a message. A ParameterService knows how to encode itself into a message, as well as how to extract itself from a message.

Method Detail

decodeValue

java.lang.Object decodeValue(MessageService message)

Perform the decodeValue method and return the Object result. This API takes a message as a parameter and extracts the appropriate parameter information from the message, returning it in the appropriate form.

Parameters:

message - org.eclipse.soda.dk.message.service.MessageService

Returns:

Results of the decode value (Object) value.

See Also:

encodeValue(MessageService,Object)

encodeValue

MessageService encodeValue(MessageService message,
                           java.lang.Object value)

Perform the encodeValue method and return the MessageService result. This API takes the value specified in the value parameter, and properly encodes the value into the message parameter, and returns the encoded MessageService.

Parameters:

message - org.eclipse.soda.dk.message.service.MessageService

value - java.lang.Object

Returns:

Results of the encode value (MessageService) value.

See Also:

decodeValue(MessageService)

getKey

java.lang.String getKey()

Return the key of this parameter. The key must be unique to set of parameters to a message. This API returns the tag as specified in the CML file. If is not specified, then the result is the id attribute.

Returns:

Object The parameter key.
