Sets the payload of the field

Parameters:

payload -

getPayload

public URL getPayload()

Retrieves the payload of the field

Returns:

the field payload

Retrieves the FieldDefinition based on the definition index and the bound Record RecordDefinition

Overrides:

getFieldDefinition in class Field

Returns:

the field definition

See Also:

Field.getFieldDefinition()

isAvailable

public boolean isAvailable()

Method that needs to be implemented by class extenders to indicate in case of a remote field copy when the field is not expecting any more data from its original instance. For an instance that is not remote, the field is always available

Specified by:

isAvailable in class Field

Returns:

whether or not the remote copy is available

See Also:

Field.isAvailable()

getInputStream

public InputStream getInputStream()
                           throws IOException

Provides an InputStream over the locally available payload of the Field

Specified by:

getInputStream in class Field

Returns:

the input stream

Throws:

IOException - The input stream could not be created

See Also:

Field.getInputStream()

extendSend
