public class PersistentDate
extends PersistentWidget

This class is responsible for persisting Bebop Dates. The Date is saved with the save() method. To resurrect the Date, use the constructor taking the id of the saved Date and then invoke createComponent().

Constructor Detail

PersistentDate

public PersistentDate()
Constructor that creates a new Date domain object that can be saved to the database later on. This class was only included to make it possible to use this DomainObject with the FormGenerator (to make the class JavaBean compliant). Use the constructor taking a parameter name instead if possible.


PersistentDate

public PersistentDate(String typeName)
Constructor that creates a new Date domain object that can be saved to the database later on.


PersistentDate

public PersistentDate(ObjectType type)

PersistentDate

public PersistentDate(DataObject obj)

PersistentDate

public PersistentDate(BigDecimal id)
               throws DataObjectNotFoundException
Constructor that retrieves an existing Date domain object from the database.

Parameters:
id - The object id of the Date domain object to retrieve

PersistentDate

public PersistentDate(OID oID)
               throws DataObjectNotFoundException
Extending classes can use this constructor to set the sub class id and object type.

Method Detail

create

public static PersistentDate create(String parameterName)

createComponent

public Component createComponent()
Create the Date whose persistence is managed by this domain object.

Specified by:
createComponent in interface PersistentComponentFactory
Specified by:
createComponent in class PersistentComponent

copyValuesToWidget

protected void copyValuesToWidget(Widget widget)
Overrides:
copyValuesToWidget in class PersistentWidget

getEndYear

public Integer getEndYear()
This returns the end year to display or null if there is no end year


getStartYear

public Integer getStartYear()
This returns the start year to display or null if there is no start year


getValueClass

protected Class getValueClass()
Returns a java.util.Date Class

Overrides:
getValueClass in class PersistentWidget

setDateParameter

public void setDateParameter(String dateParameterClass)

getDateParameter

public String getDateParameter()
Will return null if no value has been set.
