Class DynamicValue

java.lang.Object
  edu.jhu.tmaj.beans.dynamic.data.DynamicValue

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public final class DynamicValue
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable

Represents a combination of the EnumerationID and FieldValue columns in a dynamic data table (xxxData). In a dynamic table (such as SpecimenData), a record always has a FieldID -- It can be enumerated, in which case it has an enumID; or is not enumerated, and has a typed-in FieldValue. This class represents the value that a fieldID can have, either typed-in or enumerated. If it's enumerated, the enumID points to a value in the xxxEnumerations table.
