  org.eclipse.emf.edit.command.CommandParameter

public class CommandParameter
extends java.lang.Object

This is a convenient common base class for all the command parameters need by the various types of commands. It provides particular support for the encodings need by the basic EMF-based command implementations.

Method Detail

getOwner

public java.lang.Object getOwner()

This returns the specified owner.

getEOwner

public EObject getEOwner()

This returns the specified owner as a EObject, if it is one.

setOwner

public void setOwner(java.lang.Object owner)

This sets the owner to the specified value.

getFeature

public java.lang.Object getFeature()

This returns the specified feature.

getEStructuralFeature

public EStructuralFeature getEStructuralFeature()

This returns the specified feature as a EStructuralFeature, if it is one.

getEReference

This returns the specified feature as a EReference, if it is one.

getEAttribute

public EAttribute getEAttribute()

This returns the specified feature as a EReference, if it is one.

getOwnerList

This is a safe way to get the list affected by the parameters for an add or remove specification. It can return either the EList, if the owner is one, or it tries to get the EList specified by the feature of the owner.

It works as an excellent guard for poorly formed parameters.

getCollection

public java.util.Collection<?> getCollection()

This returns the specified collection.

getList

public java.util.List<?> getList()

This returns the specified collection as a list. If the collection isn't a list, a new copy is created.

This returns the specified value.

getEValue

public EObject getEValue()

This returns the specified value as a EObject, if it is one.

getIndex

public int getIndex()
