The RegistryEntry interface is a base interface for interfaces in the model that require additional metadata beyond what is provided by the RegistryObject interface. A few interfaces in the model represent high level (coarse grain) objects in the registry that require additional metadata such as version information and indication of the stability or volatility of the information.

Method Detail

getExpirationback to summary
public Date getExpiration() throws JAXRException

Gets expirationDate attribute of the RegistryEntry within the Registry. This attribute defines a time limit upon the stability indication provided by the stability attribute. Once the expirationDate has been reached the stability attribute in effect becomes STABILITY_DYNAMIC implying that content can change at any time and in any manner. A null value implies that there is no expiration on stability attribute.

Capability Level: 1
This method must throw UnsupportedCapabilityException in lower capability levels.
Returns:Date

the expiration Date for the stability indicator

Exceptions
JAXRException:
If the JAXR provider encounters an internal error
getStabilityback to summary
public int getStability() throws JAXRException

Gets the stability indicator for the RegistryEntry within the Registry. The stability indicator is provided by the submitter as an indication of the level of stability for the content.

Capability Level: 1
This method must throw UnsupportedCapabilityException in lower capability levels.
Returns:int

the stability indicator as an integer enumeration
