Constructor Detail

IntegerType

public IntegerType()
Creates a new integer MIB type.


IntegerType

public IntegerType(Constraint constraint)
Creates a new integer MIB type.

Parameters:
constraint - the additional type constraint

IntegerType

public IntegerType(java.util.ArrayList values)
Creates a new integer MIB type.

Parameters:
values - the additional defined symbols
Method Detail

initialize

public MibType initialize(MibLoaderLog log)
                   throws MibException
Initializes the MIB type. This will remove all levels of indirection present, such as references to other types, and returns the basic type. No type information is lost by this operation. This method may modify this object as a side-effect, and will be called by the MIB loader.

Specified by:
initialize in interface MibType
Parameters:
log - the MIB loader log
Returns:
the basic MIB type
Throws:
MibException - if an error was encountered during the initialization

hasConstraint

public boolean hasConstraint()
Checks if this type has any constraint.

Returns:
true if this type has any constraint, or false otherwise

hasSymbols

public boolean hasSymbols()
Checks if this type has any defined value symbols.

Returns:
true if this type has any defined value symbols, or false otherwise

isCompatible

public boolean isCompatible(MibValue value)
Checks if the specified value is compatible with this type. A value is compatible if it is an integer number value that is compatible with the constraints.

Specified by:
isCompatible in interface MibType
Parameters:
value - the value to check
Returns:
true if the value is compatible, or false otherwise

getSymbol

public MibSymbol getSymbol(java.lang.String name)
Returns a named MIB symbol. This method returns predefined integer values, if some exist.

Specified by:
getSymbol in interface MibContext
Parameters:
name - the symbol name
Returns:
the MIB symbol, or null if not found

toString

public java.lang.String toString()
Returns a string representation of this type.

Overrides:
toString in class java.lang.Object
Returns:
a string representation of this type
