Method Detail

getAttributeTypeIdentifier

public AttributeTypeIdentifier getAttributeTypeIdentifier()

Returns the AttributeTypeIdentifier for which this object contains the constraints

getExternalHid

public String getExternalHid(AttributeTypeIdentifier id)

Return the external hierarchy id from a IBA AttributeTypeIdentifier or null if it is not IBA

getDataType

public String getDataType()

Returns the data type of the attribute. Returns : java.lang.Boolean for BooleanDefinition com.ptc.core.meta.common.FloatingPoint for FloatDefinition java.lang.Long for IntegerDefinition com.ptc.core.meta.common.Ratio for RatioDefinition java.lang.String for StringDefinition java.sql.Timestamp for TimestampDefinition wt.units.FloatingPointWithUnits for UnitDefinition com.ptc.core.meta.common.Hyperlink for URLDefinition

getLegalValues

public DataSet getLegalValues()
