Detailed Description

The CIMConstQualifier class provides a const interface to a CIMQualifier object. This class is needed because the shared representation model used by CIMQualifier does not prevent modification to a const CIMQualifier object. Note that the value of a CIMConstQualifier object could still be modified by a CIMQualifier object that refers to the same data copy.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Constructs an uninitialized CIMConstQualifier object. A method invocation on an uninitialized object will result in the throwing of an UninitializedObjectException. An uninitialized object may be converted into an initialized object only by using the assignment operator with an initialized object.

Constructs a CIMConstQualifier object from the value of a specified CIMConstQualifier object, so that both objects refer to the same data copy.

Parameters:
xThe CIMConstQualifier object from which to construct a new CIMConstQualifier object.

Constructs a CIMConstQualifier object from the value of a specified CIMQualifier object, so that both objects refer to the same data copy.

Parameters:
xThe CIMQualifier object from which to construct a new CIMConstQualifier object.
CIMConstQualifier::CIMConstQualifier ( const CIMName name,
const CIMValue value,
const CIMFlavor flavor = CIMFlavor(CIMFlavor::NONE),
Boolean  propagated = false 
)

Constructs a CIMConstQualifier object with the specified attributes.

Parameters:
nameA CIMName specifying the name of the qualifier.
valueA CIMValue specifying the qualifier value, and implicitly defining the qualifier type and whether the qualifier is an Array qualifier.
flavorA CIMFlavor indicating the qualifier flavors.
propagatedA Boolean indicating whether the qualifier is local to the context in which it appears or was propagated (without modification) from other schema.
Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectExceptionIf the qualifier name is null.

Member Function Documentation

Makes a deep copy of the qualifier. This creates a new copy of all the qualifier attributes.

Returns:
A CIMQualifier object with a separate copy of the CIMConstQualifier object.
Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectExceptionIf the object is not initialized.

Gets the qualifier flavors.

Returns:
A CIMFlavor containing the qualifier flavor settings.
Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectExceptionIf the object is not initialized.

Gets the name of the qualifier.

Returns:
A CIMName containing the name of the qualifier.
Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectExceptionIf the object is not initialized.

Tests the propagated attribute of the qualifier. The propagated attribute indicates whether this qualifier was propagated from a higher-level class. Normally this attribute is set as part of defining a qualifier in the context of a schema. It is set in qualifiers retrieved from a CIM Server. (Note: Although this method is intended to return a Boolean value, changing the return type would break interface compatibility.)

Returns:
Non-zero if qualifier is propagated, otherwise zero.
Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectExceptionIf the object is not initialized.
CIMType CIMConstQualifier::getType ( ) const

Gets the qualifier type.

Returns:
A CIMType containing the qualifier type.
Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectExceptionIf the object is not initialized.

Gets the qualifier value.

Returns:
A CIMValue containing the qualifier value.
Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectExceptionIf the object is not initialized.
Boolean CIMConstQualifier::identical ( const CIMConstQualifier x) const

Compares the qualifier with another qualifier.

Parameters:
xThe CIMConstQualifier to be compared.
Returns:
True if this qualifier is identical to the one specified, false otherwise.
Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectExceptionIf either of the objects is not initialized.
Boolean CIMConstQualifier::isArray ( ) const

Checks whether the qualifier is an Array qualifier.

Returns:
True if the qualifier is an Array qualifier, false otherwise.
Exceptions:
UninitializedObjectExceptionIf the object is not initialized.

Determines whether the object has been initialized.

Returns:
True if the object has not been initialized, false otherwise.
CIMConstQualifier& CIMConstQualifier::operator= ( const CIMConstQualifier x)

Assigns the value of the specified CIMConstQualifier object to this object, so that both objects refer to the same data copy.

Parameters:
xThe CIMConstQualifier object from which to assign this CIMConstQualifier object.
Returns:
A reference to this CIMConstQualifier object.
CIMConstQualifier& CIMConstQualifier::operator= ( const CIMQualifier x)

Assigns the value of the specified CIMQualifier object to this object, so that both objects refer to the same data copy.

Parameters:
xThe CIMQualifier object from which to assign this CIMConstQualifier object.
Returns:
A reference to this CIMConstQualifier object.
