Field Detail

dataType

private org.biomage.Description.OntologyEntry dataType
The type of data generated by the parameter i.e. Boolean, float, etc...


unit

private org.biomage.Measurement.Unit unit
Unit the value is associated with

Constructor Detail

Parameter

public Parameter()
Default constructor.


Parameter

public Parameter(org.xml.sax.Attributes atts)
Attribute constructor. Looks up the attributes in the parameter and casts them from strings appropriately

Method Detail

writeMAGEML

public void writeMAGEML(java.io.Writer out)
                 throws java.io.IOException
writeMAGEML

This method is responsible for assembling the attribute and association data into XML. It creates the object tag and then calls the writeAttributes and writeAssociation methods.


writeAttributes

public void writeAttributes(java.io.Writer out)
                     throws java.io.IOException
writeAttributes

This method is responsible for assembling the attribute data into XML. It calls the super method to write out all attributes of this class and it's ancestors.


writeAssociations

public void writeAssociations(java.io.Writer out)
                       throws java.io.IOException
writeAssociations

This method is responsible for assembling the association data into XML. It calls the super method to write out all associations of this class's ancestors.


setDataType

public void setDataType(org.biomage.Description.OntologyEntry dataType)
Set method for dataType

Specified by:
setDataType in interface org.biomage.Interface.HasDataType

getDataType

public org.biomage.Description.OntologyEntry getDataType()
Get method for dataType

Specified by:

setUnit

public void setUnit(org.biomage.Measurement.Unit unit)
Set method for unit

Specified by:
setUnit in interface org.biomage.Interface.HasUnit

getUnit

public org.biomage.Measurement.Unit getUnit()
Get method for unit

Specified by:
getUnit in interface org.biomage.Interface.HasUnit
