com.ibm.portal.propertybroker.property
Interface ParameterController

All Superinterfaces:

Parameter

public interface ParameterController
extends Parameter

ParameterController encapsulates setter methods used when initializing instances of Parameter. This interface does not have any runtime specific dependencies, as it is intended for reuse across different component runtime environments where brokered communication across components may be supported. See the getter methods in Parameter for a detailed description of the attributes which are set by the methods in this interface.

In the WebSphere Portal environment, ParameterController objects may be programmatically created using PropertyBrokerService, followed by invoking the setter methods of this interface, or these objects may be implicitly created by the runtime using information provided in a WSDL file.

5.1

setPresentIfNullValue

void setPresentIfNullValue(boolean value)
