Class Overview

Interface Attribute is the base interface implemented by any and every printing attribute class to indicate that the class represents a printing attribute. All printing attributes are serializable.

Summary

Public Methods
abstract Class<? extends Attribute>	getCategory() Get the printing attribute class which is to be used as the "category" for this printing attribute value when it is added to an attribute set.
abstract String	getName() Get the name of the category of which this attribute value is an instance.

Public Methods

public abstract Class<? extends Attribute> getCategory ()

Get the printing attribute class which is to be used as the "category" for this printing attribute value when it is added to an attribute set.

Returns

Printing attribute class (category), an instance of class java.lang.Class.

public abstract String getName ()

Get the name of the category of which this attribute value is an instance.

Note: This method is intended to provide a default, nonlocalized string for the attribute's category. If two attribute objects return the same category from the getCategory() method, they should return the same name from the getName() method.

Returns

Attribute category name.
