The CIMQualifier class is used to represent CIM qualifiers in Pegasus.

Documentation

The CIMQualifier class is used to represent CIM qualifiers in Pegasus. It is almost identical to CIMQualifierDecl except that it has no scope member. This includes functions to create qualifiers and manipulate/test the individual components of the CIMQualifier. CIMQualifiers are accumulated into lists for use in CIMClasses and CIMProperties using the CIMQualifierList Class and its functions.

CIMQualifier()

Constructor - Creates a CIM qualifier object with empty name value fields

CIMQualifier(const CIMQualifier& x)

Constructor - Creates a CIM qualifier object from another CIM qualifier object.

Parameters:

x - - CIMQualifier object.

CIMQualifier( const CIMName& name, const CIMValue& value, const CIMFlavor & flavor = CIMFlavor (CIMFlavor::NONE), Boolean propagated = false)

Constructor - Creates a CIM qualifier object with the parameters defined on input.

Parameters:

name - - CIMName representing name for the new qualifier.
value - - CIMValue from which to extract the value for the keys.
flavor - - Flavor defined for this qualifier definition. Default for this parameter is CIMFlavor::NONE.
propagated - - Boolean defining whether this is a propagated qualifier. This is an optional parameter with default = false

~CIMQualifier()

Destructor

CIMQualifier& operator=(const CIMQualifier& x)

const CIMName& getName() const

Returns the name field from the qualifier.

Returns:

CIMName containing the qualifier name.

void setName(const CIMName& name)

Sets the qualifier name field in the qualifier object.

Parameters:

name - - CIMName containing the name for the qualifier.

CIMType getType() const

Gets the type field from the qualifier object.

Returns:

CIMType containing the type for this qualifier.

Boolean isArray() const

Return true if the qualifier is an array.

Returns:

true if the qualifier is an array, false otherwise.

const CIMValue& getValue() const

Gets the value component of the qualifier object.

Returns:

CIMValue containing the value component.

void setValue(const CIMValue& value)

Puts a CIMValue object into a CIMQualifier object.

Parameters:

value - - The CIMValue object to install.

void setFlavor(const CIMFlavor & flavor)

Sets the bits defined on input into the Flavor variable for the Qualifier Object.

Parameters:

flavor - - CIMFlavor object defines the flavor bits to be set.

void unsetFlavor(const CIMFlavor & flavor)

Resets the bits defined for the flavor for the Qualifier Object with the input.

Parameters:

flavor - - CIMFlavor object defines the flavor bits to be unset.

const CIMFlavor& getFlavor() const

Gets the Flavor field from the Qualifier.

Returns:

CIMFlavor object from this qualifier.

const Uint32 getPropagated() const

Gets the Propagated flag for the qualifier. (Note: Although this method is intended to return a Boolean value, changing the return type would break interface compatibility.)

Returns:

non-zero if qualifier is propagated, zero otherwise.

void setPropagated(Boolean propagated)

Sets the Propagated flag for the qualifier.

Parameters:

propagated - - Flag indicating propagation.

Boolean isUninitialized() const

Determines if the object has not been initialized.

Returns:

true if the object has not been initialized, false otherwise.

Boolean identical(const CIMConstQualifier& x) const

Compares two CIMQualifier objects.

Returns:

true if the objects are identical, false otherwise.

CIMQualifier clone() const

Creates an exact copy of the qualifier and returns the new object.

Returns:

copy of CIMQualifier object.
