Uses of Interface
net.jini.core.entry.Entry

Packages that use Entry

Package	Description
net.jini.core.entry	The Entry interface and its associated UnusableEntryException are used by the lookup service to represent service-specific attributes and by the JavaSpace interface to mark entries.
net.jini.core.lookup	These are the lookup service interfaces and classes.
net.jini.entry	Provides classes that are useful when handling or implementing entries.
net.jini.space	JavaSpaces servers provide a place on the network, a space, for clients to store and exchange objects.

Uses of Entry in net.jini.core.entry

Uses of Entry in net.jini.entry

Classes in net.jini.entry that implement Entry

Modifier and Type	Class and Description
class	AbstractEntry An abstract implementation of Entry that provides useful implementations of equals, hashCode, and toString.

Methods in net.jini.entry that return Entry

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
Entry	AbstractEntry.clone() Clone has been implemented to allow utilities such as ServiceDiscoveryManager to avoid sharing internally stored instances with client code.

Methods in net.jini.entry with parameters of type Entry

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
static boolean	AbstractEntry.equals(Entry e1, Entry e2) Returns true if the two arguments are of the same class and for each entry field F, the arguments' values for F are either both null or the invocation of equals on one argument's value for F with the other argument's value for F as its parameter returns true.
static int	AbstractEntry.hashCode(Entry entry) Returns zero XORed with the result of invoking hashCode on each of the argument's non-null entry fields.
static String	AbstractEntry.toString(Entry entry) Returns a String representation of its argument that will contain the name of the argument's class and a representation of each of the argument's entry fields.

Uses of Entry in net.jini.space

Methods in net.jini.space that return Entry

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
abstract Entry	AvailabilityEvent.getEntry() Returns a copy of the Entry whose transition triggered this event.
Entry	MatchSet.getSnapshot() Returns a snapshot of the Entry removed by the last call to next.
abstract Entry	AvailabilityEvent.getSnapshot() Returns a snapshot of the Entry whose transition triggered this event.
Entry	MatchSet.next() Removes one Entry from the match set and returns a copy to the caller.
Entry	JavaSpace.read(Entry tmpl, Transaction txn, long timeout) Read any matching entry from the space, blocking until one exists.
Entry	JavaSpace.readIfExists(Entry tmpl, Transaction txn, long timeout) Read any matching entry from the space, returning null if there is currently is none.
Entry	JavaSpace.snapshot(Entry e) The process of serializing an entry for transmission to a JavaSpaces service will be identical if the same entry is used twice.
Entry	JavaSpace.take(Entry tmpl, Transaction txn, long timeout) Take a matching entry from the space, waiting until one exists.
Entry	JavaSpace.takeIfExists(Entry tmpl, Transaction txn, long timeout) Take a matching entry from the space, returning null if there is currently is none.

Methods in net.jini.space with parameters of type Entry

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
