Interface LocalizedResource

All Superinterfaces:
CMetadata, MdObjectBase, MdObjectBaseUtil, MdObjectBaseXML, Remote, Root, SecondaryType

public interface LocalizedResource extends SecondaryType
Contains the localized values for a particular locale as defined by the LocalId attribute. Locale information contained in the LocalizedResource is used when displaying information contained in the associated LocalizedObject. The Value attribute contains the localized version of the value for the property specified by the Name attribute.

Attributes of LocalizedResource are:

Associations of LocalizedResource are:

Usage

To create an instance of this LocalizedResource, use the factory create methods.
Example: create a LocalizedResource with name "LocalizedResource_Object", in repository "AAAAAAAA".
 // create a store to contain your objects for this change. If you do not have an existing object
 // or store to use.  You may obtain the store from another object by using Object.getObjectStore().
 MdFactory factory; //where "factory" is a valid MdFactory instance
 MdObjectStore objectStore = factory.createObjectStore();
 LocalizedResource myObject = (LocalizedResource) factory.createComplexMetadataObject(objectStore, "LocalizedResource_Object", MetadataObjects.LOCALIZEDRESOURCE, "AAAAAAAA");
 myObject.updateMetadataAll();  // Write object to server
 objectStore.dispose();  // dispose of the object store if it is no longer needed
 

Behavior

  • Attributes and associations for this object can be retrieved by using the methods in MdOMIUtil.
  • When changes are made to the object, either by setting an attribute or adding objects to a particular association, they can be persisted to the metadata server with the updateMetadataAll method.
  • If an object needs to be deleted, the delete method can be used. This will flag the object as being deleted on the client, and will require an update call to persist the change to the server.

Dependencies

This class depends on objects being contained in an MdObjectStore. Object stores should be disposed of when they are no longer needed as this will help clean up memory. Disposing an object store will dispose of all objects contained within that store.
