Method Detail

doGetTextSummary

public CustomDatatype.Summary doGetTextSummary(Date 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<Date>

Returns:

a plain-text summary of the typed value

See Also:

SerializingCustomDatatype.doGetTextSummary(java.lang.Object)

deserialize

public Date deserialize(String serializedValue)

Specified by:

deserialize in class SerializingCustomDatatype<Date>

Returns:

the reconstructed typed version of serializedValue

See Also:

Should reconstruct a date serialized by this handler

serialize

public String serialize(Date typedValue)

Specified by:

serialize in class SerializingCustomDatatype<Date>

Parameters:

typedValue - (has already had validate called)

Returns:

a String representation of typedValue

See Also:

Should convert a date into a ymd string representation
