public class MBeanConstructorInfo

extends MBeanFeatureInfo

implements java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable

Describes a constructor exposed by an MBean. Instances of this class are immutable. Subclasses may be mutable but this is not recommended.

Constructor Detail

MBeanConstructorInfo

public MBeanConstructorInfo(java.lang.String description,
                            java.lang.reflect.Constructor constructor)

Constructs an MBeanConstructorInfo object.

Parameters:

description - A human readable description of the operation.

constructor - The java.lang.reflect.Constructor object describing the MBean constructor.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if one of constructor's parameter types is not a syntactically legal Java type name. Java reserved words are not considered illegal here. If constructor comes from a class compiled from Java, this exception cannot happen.

MBeanConstructorInfo

public MBeanConstructorInfo(java.lang.String name,
                            java.lang.String description,
                            MBeanParameterInfo[] signature)
                     throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

Constructs an MBeanConstructorInfo object.

Parameters:

name - The name of the constructor.

signature - MBeanParameterInfo objects describing the parameters(arguments) of the constructor. This may be null with the same effect as a zero-length array.

description - A human readable description of the constructor.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if name is not a valid Java identifier or a syntactically legal Java type name as returned by Constructor.getName(). Java reserved words are not considered illegal here.

Method Detail

clone

public java.lang.Object clone()

Returns a shallow clone of this instance. The clone is obtained by simply calling super.clone(), thus calling the default native shallow cloning mechanism implemented by Object.clone(). No deeper cloning of any internal field is made.

Since this class is immutable, cloning is chiefly of interest to subclasses.

getSignature

public MBeanParameterInfo[] getSignature()

Returns the list of parameters for this constructor. Each parameter is described by an MBeanParameterInfo object.

The returned array is a shallow copy of the internal array, which means that it is a copy of the internal array of references to the MBeanParameterInfo objects but that each referenced MBeanParameterInfo object is not copied.

Returns:

An array of MBeanParameterInfo objects.

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object o)

Compare this MBeanConstructorInfo to another.

Overrides:

equals in class MBeanFeatureInfo

Parameters:

o - the object to compare to.

Returns:

true iff o is an MBeanConstructorInfo such that its MBeanFeatureInfo.getName(), MBeanFeatureInfo.getDescription(), and getSignature() values are equal (not necessarily identical) to those of this MBeanConstructorInfo. Two signature arrays are equal if their elements are pairwise equal.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class MBeanFeatureInfo
