public class MetadataConnectorConstants
extends java.lang.Object

Constants used in MetadataConnector, some of the values for these constants are used in NameInSource of the SystemPhysical model.

Field Summary

static char	END_METHOD_NAME_CHAR Charcter used in NameInSource of a table, the table is be populated by object resulting from calling the method enclosed in () charcters on the metadata record for the table.
static java.lang.String	GET_METHOD_PREFIX The prefix to the NameInsource for column/parameter to arrive at a method name to be invoked on a MetadataRecord to get the value used to populate the column/parameter.
static char	METHOD_DELIMITER Charcter used to seperate method names used in NameInSource, if multiple methods need to be invoked to arrive at value for a column of object from the table, each method to be invoked on the resulting object is seperated by this charachter.
static java.lang.String	PROPERTIES_FILE_EXTENSION Extension for property files containing enumeration of property values, some of the properties in the files are like standard ModelTypes, Search types etc.
static char	RECORD_TYPE_SEPERATOR Charcter used in NameInSource of a table to seperate the index file and the record type charchter.
static java.lang.String	SET_METHOD_PREFIX The prefix to the NameInSource for column/parameter to arrive at a method name to be invoked on a MetadataRecord to set the value used for some computation using the record.
static char	START_METHOD_NAME_CHAR Charcter used in NameInSource of a table, the table is be populated by object resulting from calling the method enclosed in () charcters on the metadata record for the table.
