public class ResourceObjectAttribute
extends Property

Resource Object Attribute is a Property of Resource Object. All that applies to property applies also to attribute, e.g. only a whole attributes can be changed, they may be simple or complex types, they should be representable in XML, etc. In addition, attribute definition may have some annotations that suggest its purpose and use on the Resource.

Resource Object Attribute understands resource-specific annotations such as native attribute name.

Resource Object Attribute is mutable.

Constructor Detail

ResourceObjectAttribute

public ResourceObjectAttribute(javax.xml.namespace.QName name,
                               PropertyDefinition definition,
                               java.lang.Object element,
                               PropertyPath parentPath)
Method Detail

getDefinition

public ResourceObjectAttributeDefinition getDefinition()
Description copied from class: Property
Returns applicable property definition.

May return null if no definition is applicable or the definition is not know.

Overrides:
getDefinition in class Property
Returns:
applicable property definition

getNativeAttributeName

public java.lang.String getNativeAttributeName()
Returns native attribute name.

Native name of the attribute is a name as it is used on the resource or as seen by the connector. It is used for diagnostics purposes and may be used by the connector itself. As the attribute names in XSD have to comply with XML element name limitations, this may be the only way how to determine original attribute name.

Returns null if native attribute name is not set or unknown.

The name should be the same as the one used by the resource, if the resource supports naming of attributes. E.g. in case of LDAP this annotation should contain "cn", "givenName", etc. If the resource is not that flexible, the native attribute names may be hardcoded (e.g. "username", "homeDirectory") or may not be present at all.

Returns:
native attribute name

getDebugDumpClassName

protected java.lang.String getDebugDumpClassName()
Return a human readable name of this class suitable for logs.

Overrides:
getDebugDumpClassName in class Property
