## javax.management.openmbean
Interface OpenMBeanAttributeInfo

All Superinterfaces:
  OpenMBeanParameterInfo

All Known Implementing Classes:
  OpenMBeanAttributeInfoSupport

public interface OpenMBeanAttributeInfo
extends OpenMBeanParameterInfo

Describes an attribute of an open MBean.

This interface declares the same methods as the class `MBeanAttributeInfo`. A class implementing this interface (typically `OpenMBeanAttributeInfoSupport`) should extend `MBeanAttributeInfo`.

Since:
  JMX 1.1
Version:
  3.20 03/12/19

Method Summary
`boolean` | `equals(java.lang.Object obj)` Compares the specified obj parameter with this `OpenMBeanAttributeInfo` instance for equality.
`int` | `hashCode()` Returns the hash code value for this `OpenMBeanAttributeInfo` instance.
`boolean` | `isIs()` Returns `true` if the attribute described by this `OpenMBeanAttributeInfo` instance is accessed through a `isXXX` getter (applies only to `boolean` and `Boolean` values), `false` otherwise.
`boolean` | `isReadable()` Returns `true` if the attribute described by this `OpenMBeanAttributeInfo` instance is readable, `false` otherwise.
`boolean` | `isWritable()` Returns `true` if the attribute described by this `OpenMBeanAttributeInfo` instance is writable, `false` otherwise.
`java.lang.String` | `toString()` Returns a string representation of this `OpenMBeanAttributeInfo` instance.

Method Detail

### isReadable

    public boolean isReadable()

  Returns `true` if the attribute described by this `OpenMBeanAttributeInfo` instance is readable, `false` otherwise.

  Returns:
    true if the attribute is readable.

### isWritable

    public boolean isWritable()

  Returns `true` if the attribute described by this `OpenMBeanAttributeInfo` instance is writable, `false` otherwise.

  Returns:
    true if the attribute is writable.

### isIs

    public boolean isIs()

  Returns `true` if the attribute described by this `OpenMBeanAttributeInfo` instance is accessed through a `isXXX` getter (applies only to `boolean` and `Boolean` values), `false` otherwise.

  Returns:
    true if the attribute is accessed through `isXXX`.

### equals

    public boolean equals(java.lang.Object obj)

  Compares the specified obj parameter with this `OpenMBeanAttributeInfo` instance for equality.

  Returns `true` if and only if all of the following statements are true:

  - obj is non null,
  - obj also implements the `OpenMBeanAttributeInfo` interface,
  - their names are equal
  - their open types are equal
  - their access properties (isReadable, isWritable and isIs) are equal
  - their default, min, max and legal values are equal.
  This ensures that this `equals` method works properly for obj parameters which are different implementations of the `OpenMBeanAttributeInfo` interface.

  Specified by:
    `equals` in interface `OpenMBeanParameterInfo`
  Parameters:
    `obj` - the object to be compared for equality with this `OpenMBeanAttributeInfo` instance;
  Returns:
    `true` if the specified object is equal to this `OpenMBeanAttributeInfo` instance.

### hashCode

    public int hashCode()

  Returns the hash code value for this `OpenMBeanAttributeInfo` instance.

  The hash code of an `OpenMBeanAttributeInfo` instance is the sum of the hash codes of all elements of information used in `equals` comparisons (ie: its name, its open type, and its default, min, max and legal values).

  This ensures that `t1.equals(t2)` implies that `t1.hashCode()==t2.hashCode()` for any two `OpenMBeanAttributeInfo` instances `t1` and `t2`, as required by the general contract of the method `Object.hashCode()`.

  Specified by:
    `hashCode` in interface `OpenMBeanParameterInfo`
  Returns:
    the hash code value for this `OpenMBeanAttributeInfo` instance

### toString

    public java.lang.String toString()

  Returns a string representation of this `OpenMBeanAttributeInfo` instance.

  The string representation consists of the name of this class (ie `javax.management.openmbean.OpenMBeanAttributeInfo`), the string representation of the name and open type of the described attribute, and the string representation of its default, min, max and legal values.

  Specified by:
    `toString` in interface `OpenMBeanParameterInfo`
  Returns:
    a string representation of this `OpenMBeanAttributeInfo` instance
