- oracle.ifs.common.AttributeValue

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Cloneable, Comparable, LooselyBoundedCacheable

Direct Known Subclasses:

AttributeValueArray, AttributeValueMap, AttributeValueScalar
```
public class AttributeValue
extends Object
implements Cloneable, Serializable, Comparable, LooselyBoundedCacheable
```
An AttributeValue represents the value of an Attribute of a LibraryObject.
An AttributeValue is instantiated any time a value needs to be represented. AttributeValues are implicitly created in getting the value of an Attribute. They may also be explicitly created using the newAttributeValue factory methods, in order to set the value of an Attribute in a LibraryObject or LibraryObjectDefinition.
In addition to the value itself, an AttributeValue tracks the data type, whether the value is an array-type, and whether the value is null. The class also provides methods to retrieve the value as various Java types, such as int, Integer, or String (not all of these are available for all AttributeValue data types). All of these conversion methods require a LibrarySession or S_LibrarySession argument. This session's Localizer is used to perform any needed localization (specifically, parsing and formatting numbers and dates).
AttributeValues also track the name of the Attribute whose value they represent. After you use a newAttributeValue method to create an AttributeValue, you can invoke the setName method to set its name. This is optional, unless you want to include the AttributeValue in an array passed to the LibraryObject.setAttributes(AttributeValue[]) method. Note that once an AttributeValue's name is set, it cannot be altered except in limited ways using the ensureUpperCaseName and overrideName methods.
