public interface PossRepImplementation14
extends PossRepImplementation

Defines the methods that the implementation class for a SIRA_PRISE PossRep must provide. This interface replaces PossRepImplementation. The old getComponentValue() method, which took a ScalarValueBuffer specifically, is now superseded by a like-named method that can act on any ValueBuffer.

Method Detail

getComponentValue

ValueBuffer getComponentValue(java.lang.String componentName,
                              ValueBuffer valueBuffer)

"Extracts" a possrep component value out of a value of the type

Parameters:

componentName - The possrep component Name

valueBuffer - The scalarValueBuffer holding the value of which the possrep's component's value is to be extracted

Returns:

The value of the component in this possrep's representation of the given value
