Constructor & Destructor Documentation

alma.asdm.ObservationTable.ObservationTable ( ASDM container ) [package]

Create a ObservationTable.
This constructor has package access because only the container can create tables. All tables must know the container to which they belong.
Parameters:

container The container to which this table belongs.

Member Function Documentation

ObservationRow alma.asdm.ObservationTable.add ( ObservationRow x )

Look up the table for a row whose noautoincrementable attributes are matching their homologues in x.
If a row is found this row else autoincrement x.observationId, add x to its table and returns x.

Returns:
a ObservationRow.

Parameters:

x. A row to be added.

void alma.asdm.ObservationTable.fromIDL ( ObservationTableIDL x ) throws DuplicateKey,ConversionException, UniquenessViolationException

Populate this table from the content of a ObservationTableIDL Corba structure.

Exceptions:

DuplicateKey Thrown if the method tries to add a row having a key that is already in the table.

ConversionException

void alma.asdm.ObservationTable.fromXML ( String xmlDoc ) throws ConversionException

Populate this table from the content of a XML document that is required to be conform to the XML schema defined for a Observation (ObservationTable.xsd).

Exceptions:

ConversionException

Implements alma.asdm.Representable.

ObservationRow [] alma.asdm.ObservationTable.get ( )

Get all rows.

Returns:
Alls rows as an array of ObservationRow

String [] alma.asdm.ObservationTable.getAttributesNames ( ) [virtual]

Returns the names of the attributes of the rows stored in that table.

Returns:
the attributes names as an array of String.

Implements alma.asdm.ASDMTable.

ASDM alma.asdm.ObservationTable.getContainer ( )

Return the container to which this table belongs.

Returns:
a ASDM.

Entity alma.asdm.ObservationTable.getEntity ( )

Returns the table's entity.

Implements alma.asdm.Representable.

String [] alma.asdm.ObservationTable.getKeyName ( ) [static]

Return the list of field names that make up key key as an array of strings.

String alma.asdm.ObservationTable.getName ( ) [virtual]

Return the name of this table.

Implements alma.asdm.ASDMTable.

ObservationRow alma.asdm.ObservationTable.getRowByKey ( Tag observationId )

Returns a ObservationRow given a key.

Returns:
the row having the key whose values are passed as parameters, or null if no row exists for that key.

Parameters:

observationId.

ASDMRow [] alma.asdm.ObservationTable.getRows ( ) [virtual]

Returns the rows of an ASDMTable as an array of ASDMRow.

Returns:
an array of ASDMRow.

Implements alma.asdm.ASDMTable.

ObservationRow alma.asdm.ObservationTable.newRow ( ObservationRow row )

Create a new row using a copy constructor mechanism.
The method creates a new ObservationRow owned by this. Each attribute of the created row is a (deep) copy of the corresponding attribute of row. The method does not add the created row to this, its simply parents it to this, a call to the add method has to be done in order to get the row added (very likely after having modified some of its attributes). If row is null then the method returns a new ObservationRow with default values for its attributes.

Parameters:

row the row which is to be copied.

ObservationRow alma.asdm.ObservationTable.newRow ( )

Create a new row with default values .

Returns:
a ObservationRow

void alma.asdm.ObservationTable.setEntity ( Entity e )

Set the table's entity.

Parameters:

e An entity.

Implements alma.asdm.Representable.

void alma.asdm.ObservationTable.setFromFile ( String directory ) throws ConversionException

Reads and parses a file containing a representation of a ObservationTable as those produced by the toFile method.
This table is populated with the result of the parsing.
Parameters:

directory The name of the directory containing the file te be read and parsed.

Exceptions:

ConversionException If any error occurs while reading the files in the directory or parsing them.

void alma.asdm.ObservationTable.setFromMIME ( byte[] mimeMsg ) throws ConversionException [package]

Extracts the binary part of a MIME message and deserialize its content to fill this with the result of the deserialization.

Parameters:

mimeMsg the string containing the MIME message.

Exceptions:

ConversionException

int alma.asdm.ObservationTable.size ( ) [virtual]

Return the number of rows in the table.

Implements alma.asdm.ASDMTable.

String alma.asdm.ObservationTable.toArchive ( Archiver ar ) throws ConversionException, ArchiverException [package]

Store this table into the archive.

Parameters:

ar the archiver in charge of the archiving.

Returns:
the UID assigned to the archived table.

void alma.asdm.ObservationTable.toFile ( String directory ) throws ConversionException

Stores a representation (binary or XML) of this table into a file.
Depending on the boolean value of its private field fileAsBin a binary serialization of this (fileAsBin==true) will be saved in a file "Observation.bin" or an XML representation (fileAsBin==false) will be saved in a file "Observation.xml". The file is always written in a directory whose name is passed as a parameter.
Parameters:

directory The name of directory where the file containing the table's representation will be saved.

Exceptions:

ConversionException

ObservationTableIDL alma.asdm.ObservationTable.toIDL ( )

Convert this table into a ObservationTableIDL CORBA structure.

Returns:
a ObservationTableIDL

byte [] alma.asdm.ObservationTable.toMIME ( ) throws ConversionException

Serialize this into a stream of bytes and encapsulates that stream into a MIME message.

Returns:
a string containing the MIME message.

String alma.asdm.ObservationTable.toString ( )

Returns "ObservationTable" followed by the current size of the table between parenthesis.
Example : SpectralWindowTable(12)
Returns:
a String.

String alma.asdm.ObservationTable.toXML ( ) throws ConversionException

Translate this table to an XML representation conform to the schema defined for Observation (ObservationTable.xsd).

Returns:
a string containing the XML representation.

Implements alma.asdm.Representable.
