Method Detail

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object obj)

Returns true if the specified object is semantically equal to this instance. Note: this method is consistent with compareTo().

Overrides:

equals in class LongID

Parameters:

obj - the object that this instance is to be compared to.

Returns:

whether the object is equal to this object.

compareTo

public int compareTo(java.lang.Object obj)

Compares this object to another. If the specified object is not an instance of the LongID class, then this method throws a ClassCastException (as instances are comparable only to instances of the same class). Note: this method is consistent with equals(), meaning that (compare(x, y)==0) == (x.equals(y)).

Specified by:

compareTo in interface ObjectID

Specified by:

compareTo in interface java.lang.Comparable

Overrides:

compareTo in class LongID

Parameters:

obj - the object that this instance is to be compared to; may not be null.

Returns:

a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as this object is less than, equal to, or greater than the specified object, respectively.

Throws:

java.lang.ClassCastException - if the specified object's type prevents it from being compared to this instance.

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Returns a string representing the current state of the object.

Specified by:

toString in interface ObjectID

Overrides:

toString in class LongID

Returns:

the string representation of this instance.

getProtocol

public java.lang.String getProtocol()

Return the name of the protocol that this factory uses.

Specified by:

getProtocol in interface ObjectID

Overrides:

getProtocol in class LongID

Returns:

the protocol name
