Method Detail

getSupertypes

public List<String> getSupertypes()

Returns the list of supertypes for this element.

This list is included in JSON serialization only if it is not empty.

Specified by:

getSupertypes in interface ModelElement

Returns:

A List of supertype names.

getExpectedtype

public String getExpectedtype()

Returns the name of the expected type.

This is used during deserialization to indicate the original type when a fallback to a supertype was necessary. It is included in JSON serialization only if it is not empty.

Specified by:

getExpectedtype in interface ModelElement

Returns:

The expected type name.

getContexts

public Map<UUID,String> getContexts()

Returns a map of contexts where this element is present.

The map keys are the context UUIDs, and the values are the context names. This property is included in JSON serialization only if it is not null.

Specified by:

getContexts in interface ERElement

Returns:

A Map of context UUIDs to context names, or null.

setContexts

protected void setContexts(Map<UUID,String> contexts)

Sets the contexts in which the entity exists.

Parameters:

contexts - The contexts.
