Constructs a CompositeType instance, checking for the validity of the given parameters. The validity constraints are described below for each parameter.

Note that the contents of the three array parameters itemNames, itemDescriptions and itemTypes are internally copied so that any subsequent modification of these arrays by the caller of this constructor has no impact on the constructed CompositeType instance.

The Java class name of composite data values this composite type represents (ie the class name returned by the getClassName method) is set to the string value returned by CompositeData.class.getName().

Parameters
typeNameThe name given to the composite type this instance represents; cannot be a null or empty string.
 
descriptionThe human readable description of the composite type this instance represents; cannot be a null or empty string.
 
itemNamesThe names of the items contained in the composite data values described by this CompositeType instance; cannot be null and should contain at least one element; no element can be a null or empty string. Note that the order in which the item names are given is not important to differentiate a CompositeType instance from another; the item names are internally stored sorted in ascending alphanumeric order.
 
itemDescriptionsThe descriptions, in the same order as itemNames, of the items contained in the composite data values described by this CompositeType instance; should be of the same size as itemNames; no element can be a null or empty string.
 
itemTypesThe open type instances, in the same order as itemNames, describing the items contained in the composite data values described by this CompositeType instance; should be of the same size as itemNames; no element can be null.
 
Throws
IllegalArgumentExceptionIf typeName or description is a null or empty string, or itemNames or itemDescriptions or itemTypes is null, or any element of itemNames or itemDescriptions is a null or empty string, or any element of itemTypes is null, or itemNames or itemDescriptions or itemTypes are not of the same size.
 
OpenDataExceptionIf itemNames contains duplicate item names (case sensitive, but leading and trailing whitespaces removed).
List of the fully qualified names of the Java classes allowed for open data values. A multidimensional array of any one of these classes is also an allowed for open data values.

Returns true if this CompositeType instance defines an item whose name is itemName.
Parameters
itemNamethe name of the item.
Return
true if an item of this name is present.
Compares the specified obj parameter with this CompositeType instance for equality.

Two CompositeType instances are equal if and only if all of the following statements are true:

  • their type names are equal
  • their items' names and types are equal

 
Parameters
objthe object to be compared for equality with this CompositeType instance; if obj is null, equals returns false.
Return
true if the specified object is equal to this CompositeType instance.
Returns the runtime class of an object. That Class object is the object that is locked by static synchronized methods of the represented class.
Return
The java.lang.Class object that represents the runtime class of the object. The result is of type {@code Class} where X is the erasure of the static type of the expression on which getClass is called.
Returns the fully qualified Java class name of the open data values this open type describes. The only possible Java class names for open data values are listed in ALLOWED_CLASSNAMES . A multidimensional array of any one of these classes is also an allowed class, in which case the class name follows the rules defined by the method getName() of java.lang.Class. For example, a 3-dimensional array of Strings has for class name "[[[Ljava.lang.String;" (without the quotes).
Return
the class name.
Returns the text description of this OpenType instance.
Return
the description.
Returns the description of the item whose name is itemName, or null if this CompositeType instance does not define any item whose name is itemName.
Parameters
itemNamethe name of the item.
Return
the description.
Returns the open type of the item whose name is itemName, or null if this CompositeType instance does not define any item whose name is itemName.
Parameters
itemNamethe name of the time.
Return
the type.
Returns the name of this OpenType instance.
Return
the type name.
Returns the hash code value for this CompositeType instance.

The hash code of a CompositeType instance is the sum of the hash codes of all elements of information used in equals comparisons (ie: name, items names, items types). This ensures that t1.equals(t2) implies that t1.hashCode()==t2.hashCode() for any two CompositeType instances t1 and t2, as required by the general contract of the method Object.hashCode() .

As CompositeType instances are immutable, the hash code for this instance is calculated once, on the first call to hashCode, and then the same value is returned for subsequent calls.

Return
the hash code value for this CompositeType instance
Returns true if the open data values this open type describes are arrays, false otherwise.
Return
true if this is an array type.
Tests whether obj is a value which could be described by this CompositeType instance.

If obj is null or is not an instance of javax.management.openmbean.CompositeData, isValue returns false. If obj is an instance of javax.management.openmbean.CompositeData, its composite type is tested for equality with this CompositeType instance, and isValue returns true if and only if equals returns true.
 

Parameters
objthe value whose open type is to be tested for equality with this CompositeType instance.
Return
true if obj is a value for this composite type, false otherwise.
Returns an unmodifiable Set view of all the item names defined by this CompositeType instance. The set's iterator will return the item names in ascending order.
Return
a {@link Set} of {@link String}.
Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor. If any threads are waiting on this object, one of them is chosen to be awakened. The choice is arbitrary and occurs at the discretion of the implementation. A thread waits on an object's monitor by calling one of the wait methods.

The awakened thread will not be able to proceed until the current thread relinquishes the lock on this object. The awakened thread will compete in the usual manner with any other threads that might be actively competing to synchronize on this object; for example, the awakened thread enjoys no reliable privilege or disadvantage in being the next thread to lock this object.

This method should only be called by a thread that is the owner of this object's monitor. A thread becomes the owner of the object's monitor in one of three ways:

  • By executing a synchronized instance method of that object.
  • By executing the body of a synchronized statement that synchronizes on the object.
  • For objects of type Class, by executing a synchronized static method of that class.

Only one thread at a time can own an object's monitor.

Throws
IllegalMonitorStateExceptionif the current thread is not the owner of this object's monitor.
Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor. A thread waits on an object's monitor by calling one of the wait methods.

The awakened threads will not be able to proceed until the current thread relinquishes the lock on this object. The awakened threads will compete in the usual manner with any other threads that might be actively competing to synchronize on this object; for example, the awakened threads enjoy no reliable privilege or disadvantage in being the next thread to lock this object.

This method should only be called by a thread that is the owner of this object's monitor. See the notify method for a description of the ways in which a thread can become the owner of a monitor.

Throws
IllegalMonitorStateExceptionif the current thread is not the owner of this object's monitor.
Returns a string representation of this CompositeType instance.

The string representation consists of the name of this class (ie javax.management.openmbean.CompositeType), the type name for this instance, and the list of the items names and types string representation of this instance.

As CompositeType instances are immutable, the string representation for this instance is calculated once, on the first call to toString, and then the same value is returned for subsequent calls.

Return
a string representation of this CompositeType instance
Causes current thread to wait until another thread invokes the method or the method for this object. In other words, this method behaves exactly as if it simply performs the call wait(0).

The current thread must own this object's monitor. The thread releases ownership of this monitor and waits until another thread notifies threads waiting on this object's monitor to wake up either through a call to the notify method or the notifyAll method. The thread then waits until it can re-obtain ownership of the monitor and resumes execution.

As in the one argument version, interrupts and spurious wakeups are possible, and this method should always be used in a loop:

     synchronized (obj) {
         while (<condition does not hold>)
             obj.wait();
         ... // Perform action appropriate to condition
     }
 
This method should only be called by a thread that is the owner of this object's monitor. See the notify method for a description of the ways in which a thread can become the owner of a monitor.
Throws
IllegalMonitorStateExceptionif the current thread is not the owner of the object's monitor.
InterruptedExceptionif another thread interrupted the current thread before or while the current thread was waiting for a notification. The interrupted status of the current thread is cleared when this exception is thrown.
Causes current thread to wait until either another thread invokes the method or the method for this object, or a specified amount of time has elapsed.

The current thread must own this object's monitor.

This method causes the current thread (call it T) to place itself in the wait set for this object and then to relinquish any and all synchronization claims on this object. Thread T becomes disabled for thread scheduling purposes and lies dormant until one of four things happens:

  • Some other thread invokes the notify method for this object and thread T happens to be arbitrarily chosen as the thread to be awakened.
  • Some other thread invokes the notifyAll method for this object.
  • Some other thread interrupts thread T.
  • The specified amount of real time has elapsed, more or less. If timeout is zero, however, then real time is not taken into consideration and the thread simply waits until notified.
The thread T is then removed from the wait set for this object and re-enabled for thread scheduling. It then competes in the usual manner with other threads for the right to synchronize on the object; once it has gained control of the object, all its synchronization claims on the object are restored to the status quo ante - that is, to the situation as of the time that the wait method was invoked. Thread T then returns from the invocation of the wait method. Thus, on return from the wait method, the synchronization state of the object and of thread T is exactly as it was when the wait method was invoked.

A thread can also wake up without being notified, interrupted, or timing out, a so-called spurious wakeup. While this will rarely occur in practice, applications must guard against it by testing for the condition that should have caused the thread to be awakened, and continuing to wait if the condition is not satisfied. In other words, waits should always occur in loops, like this one:

     synchronized (obj) {
         while (<condition does not hold>)
             obj.wait(timeout);
         ... // Perform action appropriate to condition
     }
 
(For more information on this topic, see Section 3.2.3 in Doug Lea's "Concurrent Programming in Java (Second Edition)" (Addison-Wesley, 2000), or Item 50 in Joshua Bloch's "Effective Java Programming Language Guide" (Addison-Wesley, 2001).

If the current thread is interrupted by another thread while it is waiting, then an InterruptedException is thrown. This exception is not thrown until the lock status of this object has been restored as described above.

Note that the wait method, as it places the current thread into the wait set for this object, unlocks only this object; any other objects on which the current thread may be synchronized remain locked while the thread waits.

This method should only be called by a thread that is the owner of this object's monitor. See the notify method for a description of the ways in which a thread can become the owner of a monitor.

Parameters
timeoutthe maximum time to wait in milliseconds.
Throws
IllegalArgumentExceptionif the value of timeout is negative.
IllegalMonitorStateExceptionif the current thread is not the owner of the object's monitor.
InterruptedExceptionif another thread interrupted the current thread before or while the current thread was waiting for a notification. The interrupted status of the current thread is cleared when this exception is thrown.
Causes current thread to wait until another thread invokes the method or the method for this object, or some other thread interrupts the current thread, or a certain amount of real time has elapsed.

This method is similar to the wait method of one argument, but it allows finer control over the amount of time to wait for a notification before giving up. The amount of real time, measured in nanoseconds, is given by:

 1000000*timeout+nanos

In all other respects, this method does the same thing as the method of one argument. In particular, wait(0, 0) means the same thing as wait(0).

The current thread must own this object's monitor. The thread releases ownership of this monitor and waits until either of the following two conditions has occurred:

  • Another thread notifies threads waiting on this object's monitor to wake up either through a call to the notify method or the notifyAll method.
  • The timeout period, specified by timeout milliseconds plus nanos nanoseconds arguments, has elapsed.

The thread then waits until it can re-obtain ownership of the monitor and resumes execution.

As in the one argument version, interrupts and spurious wakeups are possible, and this method should always be used in a loop:

     synchronized (obj) {
         while (<condition does not hold>)
             obj.wait(timeout, nanos);
         ... // Perform action appropriate to condition
     }
 
This method should only be called by a thread that is the owner of this object's monitor. See the notify method for a description of the ways in which a thread can become the owner of a monitor.
Parameters
timeoutthe maximum time to wait in milliseconds.
nanosadditional time, in nanoseconds range 0-999999.
Throws
IllegalArgumentExceptionif the value of timeout is negative or the value of nanos is not in the range 0-999999.
IllegalMonitorStateExceptionif the current thread is not the owner of this object's monitor.
InterruptedExceptionif another thread interrupted the current thread before or while the current thread was waiting for a notification. The interrupted status of the current thread is cleared when this exception is thrown.
