Member variable containing indicators for whether or not the variable is of type String

Constructor Detail

VarTypes

public VarTypes(VariableIndex varIndex)

Class constructor

Parameters:

varIndex - A variable index object used to iterate over when checking the type of a given variable

Method Detail

setVariableTypeIndex

private void setVariableTypeIndex(java.util.List<java.lang.Integer> vdx)

Sets an object containing booleans indicating whether the variable is/isn't a string. Requires the variable index.

Parameters:

vdx - A list of integers containing the variable indices for which the types are requested

getValues

public java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.Boolean> getValues()

Returns:

A list of Boolean objects indicating if variable is a string

getValue

public java.lang.Boolean getValue(java.lang.String varnm)

Parameters:

varnm - valid variable index value

Returns:

Name of variable at index varidx

getName

public java.lang.String getName()

Method to retrieve the name of the JSON object

Returns:

A string with the name of the JSON object

getIterator

public java.util.Iterator getIterator()

Method used to return the appropriate iterator needed to iterate over the values stored in the object. For this object the iterator values can be passed to the .getValue() method to access individual data elements.

Specified by:

getIterator in interface VarInterface

Returns:

An Iterator object
