Class EventPermission

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Guard

    public class EventPermission
    extends Permission
    This class is for event generator permissions.

    The name is related to the event generator APIs and it symbolizes the permission's action.

    The meaning of the possible permissions is defined as follows:

    set
    set handler permission. Allows EventGenerator.setEventHandler(EventHandler) to be called.

      • getEventGenerator

        @Nullable
        public EventGenerator getEventGenerator()
        Gets the event generator handled by this permission.
        Returns:
        the event generator.
      • equals

        public boolean equals​(@Nullable
                              Object obj)
        Description copied from class: Object
        Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

        The equals method implements an equivalence relation on non-null object references:

        • It is reflexive: for any non-null reference value x, x.equals(x) should return true.
        • It is symmetric: for any non-null reference values x and y, x.equals(y) should return true if and only if y.equals(x) returns true.
        • It is transitive: for any non-null reference values x, y, and z, if x.equals(y) returns true and y.equals(z) returns true, then x.equals(z) should return true.
        • It is consistent: for any non-null reference values x and y, multiple invocations of x.equals(y) consistently return true or consistently return false, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the objects is modified.
        • For any non-null reference value x, x.equals(null) should return false.

        The equals method for class Object implements the most discriminating possible equivalence relation on objects; that is, for any non-null reference values x and y, this method returns true if and only if x and y refer to the same object (x == y has the value true).

        Note that it is generally necessary to override the hashCode method whenever this method is overridden, so as to maintain the general contract for the hashCode method, which states that equal objects must have equal hash codes.

        Specified by:
        equals in class Permission
        Parameters:
        obj - the reference object with which to compare.
        Returns:
        true if this object is the same as the obj argument; false otherwise.

      • getActions

        public String getActions()
        Description copied from class: Permission
        Returns the actions as a String. This is abstract so subclasses can defer creating a String representation until one is needed. Subclasses should always return actions in what they consider to be their canonical form. For example, two FilePermission objects created via the following:
         perm1 = new FilePermission(p1, "read,write");
         perm2 = new FilePermission(p2, "write,read");
         
        both return "read,write" when the getActions method is invoked.
        Specified by:
        getActions in class Permission
        Returns:
        the actions of this Permission.
      • hashCode

        public int hashCode()
        Description copied from class: Object
        Returns a hash code value for the object. This method is supported for the benefit of hash tables such as those provided by HashMap.

        The general contract of hashCode is:

        • Whenever it is invoked on the same object more than once during an execution of a Java application, the hashCode method must consistently return the same integer, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the object is modified. This integer need not remain consistent from one execution of an application to another execution of the same application.
        • If two objects are equal according to the equals(Object) method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce the same integer result.
        • It is not required that if two objects are unequal according to the Object.equals(java.lang.Object) method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce distinct integer results. However, the programmer should be aware that producing distinct integer results for unequal objects may improve the performance of hash tables.

        As much as is reasonably practical, the hashCode method defined by class Object does return distinct integers for distinct objects. (This is typically implemented by converting the internal address of the object into an integer, but this implementation technique is not required by the JavaTM programming language.)

        Specified by:
        hashCode in class Permission
        Returns:
        a hash code value for this object.
