All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Cloneable, Discriminator, DiscriminatorXML, java.io.Serializable

public class ComponentTypeDiscriminator

extends java.lang.Object

implements DiscriminatorXML

Discriminator for a rule that applies when a DataView item is a particular component. For example, you could use this Discriminator to specify that numbers should be abbreviated when they mark values along the Y2-axis of a graph.

This Discriminator the component type integer from the RuleContext that describes the DataView item, with the internal component type integer in this Discriminator.

Specified by:

clone in interface Discriminator

Returns:

The clone of this ComponentTypeDiscriminator.

getComponentType

public int getComponentType()

Retrieves the component type of this ComponentTypeDiscriminator.

Returns:

A constant that represents the type of component a DataView item must be in order for this ComponentTypeDiscriminator to apply. Constants are defined in the sublasses of the DataView class.

setComponentType

public void setComponentType(int componentType)

Specifies the type of component for this ComponentTypeDiscriminator.

Parameters:

componentType - A constant that represents the type of component that a DataView item must be in order for this ComponentTypeDiscriminator to apply. Constants are defined in the sublasses of the DataView class.

applies

public boolean applies(RuleContext context)

Indicates whether the ComponentType from the specified RuleContext matches the ComponentType for this ComponentTypeDiscriminator.

Specified by:

applies in interface Discriminator

Parameters:

context - The context of the item being painted.

Returns:

true if the component type in context is the same as the component type of this ComponentTypeDiscriminator, false if not.
