Constructor Detail

BinaryValue

public BinaryValue(java.lang.String text)

Constructs a BinaryValue object based on a string.

Parameters:

text - the string this BinaryValue should represent

BinaryValue

public BinaryValue(Binary bin)

Constructs a BinaryValue object based on a Binary.

Parameters:

bin - the bytes this BinaryValue should represent

Method Detail

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object obj)

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

The result is true if and only if the argument is not null and is a BinaryValue object that represents the same value as this object.

Overrides:

equals in class java.lang.Object

Parameters:

obj - the reference object with which to compare.

Returns:

true if this object is the same as the obj argument; false otherwise.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns zero to satisfy the Object equals/hashCode contract. This class is mutable and not meant to be used as a hash key.

Overrides:

hashCode in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

always zero

Gets the string representation of this binary value.

Returns:

string representation of this binary value.

Throws:

javax.jcr.ValueFormatException

javax.jcr.RepositoryException - if another error occurs
