class %Collection.Super
extends %RegisteredObject
Functions needed for all collection classes
• parameter ELEMENTTYPE = "%String";
The type (class name) of the elements stored in the collection.
• property ElementClassType
as %String;
The ClassType of the elements stored by this collection
• property ElementType
as %CacheString [ InitialExpression = ..#ELEMENTTYPE ];
The type (classname:propertyname) of the elements stored in the collection.
• property LiteralBehavior
as %Integer [ InitialExpression = 0 ];
True if this collection is a 'literal object' so the Insert/Set should make a copy of the object
before inserting it.
• property OrefStorage
as %Integer;
• property Owner
as %String;
Integer version of the object that has the collection data
• property ReadOnly
as %Boolean;
True if this collection is read only
• property Storage
as %Integer;
• property StreamLocation
as %String;
For stream collections this contains the stream root location
• method %Disconnect()
as %Status
Called when the parent object is about to be removed so this collection can exist
in a disconnected state. It makes a copy of the parents collection information.
• method %IsModified()
as %Integer
Returns true (1) if a property of this instance has been modified, otherwise false (0).
A TRUE result does not necessarily mean that any property has actually been changed. If
%IsModified() returns false then the object has not been modified. There are some
situations where we simply cannot efficiently detect a change in value. In these cases we
will set the modified status of the property.
• method Clear()
as %Status
Clears the contents of the array. Both the OID value is cleared.
Returns a %Status value indicating success or failure.
