Modifier and Type | Method and Description |
---|---|
protected boolean |
checkForSameDefinition(DefinitionalObject other)
Checks to determine if another instance has the same definition as this instance and
returns
true if it does. |
protected abstract boolean |
checkForSameDefinition(ObjectExtension other)
Checks to determine if another instance has the same definition as this instance and
returns
true if it does. |
protected int |
computeCurrentDefinitionHashCode()
Computes a hash code based on the current properties of this object.
|
void |
enumerateDependencies(DependencyEnumerator enumerator)
Enumerates the dependencies of this object by calling
DependencyEnumerator#enumerate(T) for each object that this object directly depends upon. |
ExtensibleObject |
getOwner()
Gets the owner of this extension.
|

if it does. Derived classes MUST override this method and check
all new fields introduced by the derived class for definitional equivalence. It is NOT necessary
to check base class fields because the base class will already have done that. When overriding this method,
you should NOT call the base implementation because it will return false
for all derived-class instances.
Derived classes should check the type of other
to preserve the symmetric nature of IEquatableDefinition.isSameDefinition(java.lang.Object)
