Method Summary

boolean	exists()
T	get()
Map<Object,Object>	getIdProperties() A map of properties key by the idProperty enum in the model class for the referent object.
boolean	isExpanded() indicates a reference is expanded and can be resolved to an object by calling get, or whether the reference is collapsed and calling get will throw an exception.
Iterator<T>	iterator()
com.atlassian.fugue.Option<T>	option()
Class	referentClass()
String	toString()

Specified by:

isExpanded in class Reference<T>

Returns:

true

getIdProperties

public Map<Object,Object> getIdProperties()

Description copied from class: Reference

A map of properties key by the idProperty enum in the model class for the referent object. The map contains properties sufficient to identify the referent object.

Specified by:

getIdProperties in class Reference<T>

Returns:

a map of id properties keyed by idProperty enum

referentClass

public Class referentClass()

Specified by:

referentClass in class Reference<T>
