NameList

baja. NameList

new NameList()

Description:

  • A NameList simply contains a set of name strings. Names must be valid
    SlotPath names.

    Note that the actual behavior of this class is more of a set than a list,
    but we conform with the class name in javax.baja.util. Heigh ho.

Methods

decodeAsync(str, batchopt) → {baja.Simple|Promise.<baja.Simple>}

Description:

  • The string encoding of certain Simples may include Type information, or
    other data that may be require asynchronous operations to decode. BOX is
    designed to handle these situations when decoding data from the station,
    but when user code needs to decode string-encoded Simples directly, prefer
    this method as it gives the individual Simple a chance to import Types,
    etc. to ensure that the decoded Simple is fully correct.

    The default implementation just returns decodeFromString directly.

Parameters:
Name Type Attributes Description
str string
batch baja.comm.Batch <optional>

optional batch to use
Returns:

may return the Simple instance
directly, or a Promise resolving to same - so wrap in Promise.resolve()
if unsure.

Type
baja.Simple | Promise.<baja.Simple>

decodeFromString(str) → {baja.NameList}

Description:

  • Decode a NameList from a string.

Source:

Parameters:
Name Type Description
str String
Returns:
Type
baja.NameList

difference(o) → {baja.NameList}

Description:

  • Return the difference which is this NameList minus the names in the other
    NameList.

Source:
Parameters:
Name Type Description
o baja.NameList
Returns:
Type
baja.NameList

encodeToString() → {String}

Description:

  • Encode this NameList to a string.

Returns:
Type
String

equals(o) → {boolean}

Description:

  • Two NameLists are considered equal if they contain all the same strings,
    not necessarily in the same order.

Source:
Overrides:
Parameters:
Name Type Description
o baja.NameList
Returns:
Type
boolean

equivalent(obj) → {Boolean}

Description:

  • Equivalence test.

    equivalent() is used to compare if two Objects have equivalent
    state, but might not want to return true for equals since it
    it has implied semantics for many operations. The default
    implementation returns the result of baja.Object#equals.
