DefaultContentModelElement

public DefaultContentModelElement(String id,
                          String directiveName)

Method Detail

parseContent

public void parseContent()

Description copied from interface: ValidatedContentModelElement

Processes the content if required. For example, this might take the content string and parse it into a JSON object (such that plugins can merge into the content

Specified by:

parseContent in interface ValidatedContentModelElement

getNextContentBufferElement

public ExtensibilityContent getNextContentBufferElement()

Description copied from interface: ContentModelElement

This should be implemented to return the next buffer element to write to. Depending upon the implementation this method could always return the same buffer element. The buffer element in this case should be an object that is and implementation of ExtensibilityContent.

Specified by:

getNextContentBufferElement in interface ContentModelElement

Returns:

An ExtensibilityContent object to write to.

validateContent

public boolean validateContent()

Specified by:

validateContent in interface ValidatedContentModelElement

flushContent

public String flushContent()

Description copied from interface: ContentModelElement

Flushes the content of the all the buffer elements

Specified by:

flushContent in interface ContentModelElement

Returns:

A single String which is the output of all the buffer elements.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class ModelElementImpl

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Overrides the default to loosen the parameters slightly. Two ContentModelElement objects are equal if they both implement the ContentModelElement and have the same "id" attribute. This means that two ContentModelElement instances are still considered equal even if they are not implemented by the same class. This makes searching for content in the content model easier.

Overrides:

equals in class ModelElementImpl

getType

public String getType()

Specified by:

getType in interface ExtensibilityModelElement
