Documentation

The CIMFlavor class represents the DMTF standard CIM qualifier flavor definition, which encapsulates the propagation and override rules for qualifiers. The propagation rules define whether a qualifier may be propagated from classes to derived classes or from classes to instances. The override rules define whether a derived class may override a qualifier value.

A CIMFlavor contains one or more of these values: OVERRIDABLE, TOSUBCLASS, TOINSTANCE, TRANSLATABLE, DISABLEOVERRIDE, ENABLEOVERRIDE, RESTRICTED and DEFAULTS.

Inheritance:

Public Fields

static const CIMFlavor	NONE Indicates that the qualifier has no flavors
static const CIMFlavor	OVERRIDABLE Indicates that the qualifier may be overridden
static const CIMFlavor	ENABLEOVERRIDE Indicates that the override feature is enabled for the qualifier.
static const CIMFlavor	DISABLEOVERRIDE Indicates that the override feature is disabled for the qualifier.
static const CIMFlavor	TOSUBCLASS Indicates that the qualifier is propagated to subclasses
static const CIMFlavor	RESTRICTED Indicates that the qualifier is not propagated to subclasses
static const CIMFlavor	TOINSTANCE Indicates that the qualifier is propagated to instances.
static const CIMFlavor	TRANSLATABLE Indicates that the qualifier is translatable (for internationalization)
static const CIMFlavor	DEFAULTS Indicates the default flavor settings (OVERRIDABLE | TOSUBCLASS)
static const CIMFlavor	TOSUBELEMENTS Indicates that the qualifier is propagated to subclasses.

Public Methods

	CIMFlavor () Constructs a CIMFlavor object with the value NONE
	CIMFlavor (const CIMFlavor & flavor) Constructs a CIMFlavor object from the value of a specified CIMFlavor object.
CIMFlavor&	operator= (const CIMFlavor& flavor) Assigns the value of the specified CIMFlavor object to this object.
void	addFlavor (const CIMFlavor& flavor) Adds flavor values to the CIMFlavor object.
void	removeFlavor (const CIMFlavor& flavor) Removes flavor values from the CIMFlavor object.
Boolean	hasFlavor (const CIMFlavor& flavor) const Checks whether the flavor contains specified flavor values.
Boolean	equal (const CIMFlavor& flavor) const Compares the CIMFlavor with a specified CIMFlavor.
CIMFlavor	operator+ (const CIMFlavor& flavor) const Adds two flavor values.
String	toString () const Returns a String representation of the CIMFlavor object.

CIMFlavor()

Constructs a CIMFlavor object with the value NONE

CIMFlavor(const CIMFlavor & flavor)

Constructs a CIMFlavor object from the value of a specified CIMFlavor object.

Parameters:

flavor - The CIMFlavor object from which to construct a new CIMFlavor object.

CIMFlavor& operator=(const CIMFlavor& flavor)

Assigns the value of the specified CIMFlavor object to this object.

Parameters:

flavor - The CIMFlavor object from which to assign this CIMFlavor object.

Returns:

A reference to this CIMFlavor object.

void addFlavor(const CIMFlavor& flavor)

Adds flavor values to the CIMFlavor object.

Parameters:

flavor - A CIMFlavor containing the flavor values to add.

void removeFlavor(const CIMFlavor& flavor)

Removes flavor values from the CIMFlavor object.

Parameters:

flavor - A CIMFlavor containing the flavor values to remove.

Boolean hasFlavor(const CIMFlavor& flavor) const

Checks whether the flavor contains specified flavor values.

Parameters:

flavor - A CIMFlavor specifying the flavor values to check.

Returns:

True if the flavor contains all the values in the specified CIMFlavor object, false otherwise.

Boolean equal(const CIMFlavor& flavor) const

Compares the CIMFlavor with a specified CIMFlavor.

Parameters:

flavor - The CIMFlavor to be compared.

Returns:

True if this flavor has the same set of values as the specified flavor, false otherwise.

CIMFlavor operator+(const CIMFlavor& flavor) const

Adds two flavor values.

Parameters:

flavor - A CIMFlavor containing the flavor value to add to this flavor.

Returns:

A new CIMFlavor object containing a union of the values in the two flavor objects.

String toString() const

Returns a String representation of the CIMFlavor object. This method is for diagnostic purposes. The format of the output is subject to change.

Returns:

A String containing a human-readable representation of the flavor value.

static const CIMFlavor NONE

Indicates that the qualifier has no flavors

static const CIMFlavor OVERRIDABLE

Indicates that the qualifier may be overridden

static const CIMFlavor ENABLEOVERRIDE

Indicates that the override feature is enabled for the qualifier. Thus, the qualifier may be overridden.

static const CIMFlavor DISABLEOVERRIDE

Indicates that the override feature is disabled for the qualifier. Thus, the qualifier may not be overridden.

static const CIMFlavor TOSUBCLASS

Indicates that the qualifier is propagated to subclasses

static const CIMFlavor RESTRICTED

Indicates that the qualifier is not propagated to subclasses

static const CIMFlavor TOINSTANCE

Indicates that the qualifier is propagated to instances. NOTE: This flavor is deprecated and should not be used.

static const CIMFlavor TRANSLATABLE

Indicates that the qualifier is translatable (for internationalization)

static const CIMFlavor DEFAULTS

Indicates the default flavor settings (OVERRIDABLE | TOSUBCLASS)

static const CIMFlavor TOSUBELEMENTS

Indicates that the qualifier is propagated to subclasses. This flavor is equivalent to TOSUBCLASSES. The TOINSTANCE flavor is no longer included here since it is deprecated.

This class has no child classes.
