Interface ICMIModelInfo

All Superinterfaces:
ICMIAbstractInfo

public interface ICMIModelInfo
extends ICMIAbstractInfo

Represents the root of runtime meta data of a CMI model This type can be called, extended or implemented by applications or frameworks using CMI.

Type Classification Type Classification:

This interface is part of the Common Model Interface and is intended to be implemented by applications.


Field Summary
static CMIModelType TYPE_GENERIC
          This model type means that the CMI model consists only of usually few generic model classes to which no typed access is possible or desirable
static CMIModelType TYPE_REVERSEENGINEERED
          This model type means that the CMI model was created (at design time) by a XMI import into the SAP Netweaver Developer Studio.
static CMIModelType TYPE_RFCADAPTER
          This model type means that the CMI model was created out of the import of an RFC model
 
Method Summary
 ICMIModelClassInfo getModelClassInfo(String name)
          returns the model class infos for the model class with the given (full qualified) name.
 Collection getModelClassInfos()
          returns a collection of all model class infos of this model.
 Collection getModelRelationInfo(String name)
          returns a collection of all model class relation infos with the given name or null, if the model implementation doesn't support relation infos.
 Collection getModelRelationInfos()
          returns a collection of all model class relation infos or null, if the model implementation doesn't support relation infos.
 CMIModelType getModelType()
          returns the model type of the model according to the defined TYPE_... constants.
 Iterator iterateModelClassInfos()
          returns an iterator over all model class infos of this model.
 Iterator iterateModelRelationInfos()
          returns an iterator over all model class relation infos or null, if the model implementation doesn't support relation infos.
 boolean supportsModelRelationInfos()
          returns true, if modelRelationInfos are accessible at runtime.

Field Detail

TYPE_RFCADAPTER

public static final CMIModelType TYPE_RFCADAPTER
This model type means that the CMI model was created out of the import of an RFC model


TYPE_REVERSEENGINEERED

public static final CMIModelType TYPE_REVERSEENGINEERED
This model type means that the CMI model was created (at design time) by a XMI import into the SAP Netweaver Developer Studio. Usually the imported XMI file was exported by an UML modelling tool.


TYPE_GENERIC

public static final CMIModelType TYPE_GENERIC
This model type means that the CMI model consists only of usually few generic model classes to which no typed access is possible or desirable

Method Detail

getModelClassInfos

public Collection getModelClassInfos()
returns a collection of all model class infos of this model. The collection should be immutable.


iterateModelClassInfos

public Iterator iterateModelClassInfos()
returns an iterator over all model class infos of this model. The iterator should be immutable.


getModelClassInfo

public ICMIModelClassInfo getModelClassInfo(String name)
returns the model class infos for the model class with the given (full qualified) name.


supportsModelRelationInfos

public boolean supportsModelRelationInfos()
returns true, if modelRelationInfos are accessible at runtime. A model implementation that doesn't support this must return false, but must implement the class ICMIModelRelationRoleInfos anyway.

getModelRelationInfos

public Collection getModelRelationInfos()
returns a collection of all model class relation infos or null, if the model implementation doesn't support relation infos. The collection should be immutable.


iterateModelRelationInfos

public Iterator iterateModelRelationInfos()
returns an iterator over all model class relation infos or null, if the model implementation doesn't support relation infos. The iterator should be immutable.


getModelRelationInfo

public Collection getModelRelationInfo(String name)
returns a collection of all model class relation infos with the given name or null, if the model implementation doesn't support relation infos. The collection should be immutable.


getModelType

public CMIModelType getModelType()
returns the model type of the model according to the defined TYPE_... constants.
