Method Detail

doGetTextSummary

public CustomDatatype.Summary doGetTextSummary(T typedValue)

Description copied from class: SerializingCustomDatatype

Most implementations should override this method to return plain-text summary of the typed value, as defined by CustomDatatype.getTextSummary(String). If SerializingCustomDatatype.deserialize(String) is expensive, then the implementation should override SerializingCustomDatatype.getTextSummary(String) instead. The default implementation returns typedValue.toString(), and indicates it is complete.

Overrides:

doGetTextSummary in class SerializingCustomDatatype<T extends OpenmrsMetadata>

Returns:

a plain-text summary of the typed value
