Class ExtensibleAttributes.Builder

Object

buri.ddmsence.ddms.extensible.ExtensibleAttributes.Builder

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

Enclosing class:

ExtensibleAttributes

public static class ExtensibleAttributes.Builder
extends Object
implements Serializable

Builder for these attributes.

This class does not implement the IBuilder interface, because the behavior of commit() is at odds with the standard commit() method. As an attribute group, an empty attribute group will always be returned instead of null.

Since:

1.8.0
