                               ConstraintException

Description copied from interface: AttributeContainer

Stores the given content in this container, in assocation with the given AttributeIdentifier. If the given AttributeIdentifier does not already exist in the container, and the given content is null, then the state associated with the given AttributeIdentifier is set to State.UNINTIALIZED. If the given AttributeIdentifier does not already exist in the container, and the given content is not null, then the state associated with the given AttributeIdentifier is set to State.New. If the given AttributeIdentifier already exists in the container and the previous state associated with the given AttributeIdentifier was State.UNINTIALIZED, the associated state becomes State.NEW. If the given AttributeIdentifier already exists in the container and the previous state associated with the given AttributeIdentifier was State.UNCHANGED, the associated state becomes State.CHANGED. If the given AttributeIdentifier already exists in the container and the previous state associated with the given AttributeIdentifier was State.DELETED, the associated state becomes State.CHANGED. If the given AttributeIdentifier already exists in the container and the previous state associated with the given AttributeIdentifier was State.DEFAULT, the associated state becomes State.NEW. Returns the actual Attributeidentifier used to store the content. This will be different from the given AttributeIdentifier in the case where the previous state associated with the given AttributeIdentifier was State.DEFAULT and in the case where equivalent AttributeIdentifier(s) may already be present in the AttributeContainer. In all cases, the returned AttributeIdentifier represents the most accurate and efficient AttributeIdentifier to be used for future access to the stored content. Throws IllegalContentException if the content is an AttributeContainerFunction and the function is recursive. (The function has the given AttributeIdentifier or the AttributeTypeIdentifier corresponding to the given AttributeIdentifier as one of its arguments.) Throws ConstraintException if adding/changing the given content violates one or more of the constraints in the associated ConstraintContainer.

put in interface AttributeContainer

Parameters:

the_attribute_identifier -

the_constraint_container -

Returns:

AttributeIdentifier
