Method Detail

getSymbolicChunkType

ISymbolicChunkType getSymbolicChunkType()

return the symbolic compoentn.

getSubsymbolicChunkType

ISubsymbolicChunkType getSubsymbolicChunkType()

return the subsymbolic portion

addListener

void addListener(IChunkTypeListener ctl,
                 java.util.concurrent.Executor executor)

add chunk listener

removeListener

void removeListener(IChunkTypeListener ctl)

remove chunk listener

hasListeners

boolean hasListeners()

dispatch

void dispatch(ChunkTypeEvent event)

dispose

void dispose()

Called when one is sure the IChunkType shall not be used again. This may call the dispose() method of all the derived Chunks.

Since:

isA

boolean isA(IChunkType ct)

Gets the a attribute of the IChunkType object

Parameters:

ct - Description of Parameter

Returns:

The a value

Since:

encode

void encode()

isEncoded

boolean isEncoded()

has this chunktype been encoded

Returns:

getModel

IModel getModel()

get the model that contains this chunktype

Returns:
