getProducer

public java.lang.String getProducer()

Returns:

isReady

public boolean isReady()

Returns true if this ProcessInfo's value is not null... false otherwise.

reset

public void reset()

Makes this ProcessInfo's value field null.

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object anObject)

Override Object.equals() so that we can differentiate ProcessInfo copies.

Overrides:

equals in class java.lang.Object

See Also:

Object

isSame

public boolean isSame(ProcessInfo aProcessInfo)

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Override Object.hashCode() so that we can differentiate copies of the ProcessInfo. Ignores whether or not the ProcessInfo is ready. Uses the String class' hashCode method because the mere mortals who wrote this method didn't want to be bothered by writing it.

Overrides:

hashCode in class java.lang.Object

Object

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object
