Direct Known Subclasses:

CoreErrorDomain

public abstract class ErrorDomain
extends java.lang.Object

This is the parent class of all error domain classes. Error domain classes package up a group of related error codes (and associated information) into an error domain with a unique name, by default the fully qualified name of the class. Create an error domain as follows:

• Subclass ErrorDomain.
• In the subclass, provide an empty private constructor and a public static final variable named ERR with the same type as the subclass; initialize it to an instance of the subclass. (This is eager singleton initialization.)
• Alternatively, if you want to specify a non-default domain name, use super("foo") in the constructor.
• Declare public final ErrorCode fields thus: public final ErrorCode foo = new ErrorCode("foo") (Note: not ).
• Append to each field declaration optional calls to ErrorDomain.ErrorCode.withInternalReason(java.lang.String), ErrorDomain.ErrorCode.withExtendedHelp(java.lang.String), or ErrorDomain.ErrorCode.withSendReport(java.lang.String).

Here's a complete example:

 public class FooErrorDomain extends ErrorDomain {
   private FooErrorDomain() {
     super("Foo");
   }
 
   public static final FooErrorDomain ERR = new FooErrorDomain();
 
   public final ErrorCode bar = new ErrorCode("brokenBar")
       .withInternalReason("Bar is not working yet");
 
   public final ErrorCode unsupported = new ErrorCode("unsupported")
       .withInternalReason("Requested key is not supported");
 
   public final ErrorCode invalid = new ErrorCode("invalidValue")
       .withInternalReason("Invalid value for attribute")
       .withExtendedHelp("http://www.google.com/foo/validAttributes.html");
 
 }
 

Note that all with methods return a mutated copy.

Constructor Detail

ErrorDomain

protected ErrorDomain(java.lang.String domainName)

Constructs an ErrorDomain with a specified name. This can be called only from the constructor of a subclass. The value will appear as the content of the domain element in the XML error format.

ErrorDomain

protected ErrorDomain()

Constructs an ErrorDomain with a default eror domain name. Use ErrorDomain(String) to set a different domain name.

Method Detail

getDomainName

public java.lang.String getDomainName()

Returns the name associated with this ErrorDomain..
