Severity (Java Platform SE 6)

This documentation differs from the official API. Jadeite adds extra features to the API including: variable font sizes, constructions examples, placeholders for classes and methods, and auto-generated “See Also” links. Additionally it is missing some items found in standard Javadoc documentation, including: generics type information, “Deprecated” tags and comments, “See Also” links, along with other minor differences. Please send any questions or feedback to bam@cs.cmu.edu.

All Implemented Interfaces:: Serializable, Cloneable, Attribute

Most common way to construct:

Based on 9 examples

public final class Severity
extends EnumSyntax
implements Attribute

Class Severity is a printing attribute class, an enumeration, that denotes the severity of a {@link PrinterStateReason PrinterStateReason} attribute.

Instances of Severity do not appear in a Print Service's attribute set directly. Rather, a {@link PrinterStateReasons PrinterStateReasons} attribute appears in the Print Service's attribute set. The {@link PrinterStateReasons PrinterStateReasons} attribute contains zero, one, or more than one {@link PrinterStateReason PrinterStateReason} objects which pertain to the Print Service's status, and each {@link PrinterStateReason PrinterStateReason} object is associated with a Severity level of REPORT (least severe), WARNING, or ERROR (most severe). The printer adds a {@link PrinterStateReason PrinterStateReason} object to the Print Service's {@link PrinterStateReasons PrinterStateReasons} attribute when the corresponding condition becomes true of the printer, and the printer removes the {@link PrinterStateReason PrinterStateReason} object again when the corresponding condition becomes false, regardless of whether the Print Service's overall {@link PrinterState PrinterState} also changed.

IPP Compatibility: Severity.toString() returns either "error", "warning", or "report". The string values returned by each individual {@link PrinterStateReason} and associated {@link Severity} object's toString() methods, concatenated together with a hyphen ("-") in between, gives the IPP keyword value for a {@link PrinterStateReasons}. The category name returned by getName() gives the IPP attribute name.

Field Summary
`static Severity`	`ERROR` Indicates that the javax.print.attribute.standard.PrinterStateReason is an "error" (most severe).
`static Severity`	`REPORT` Indicates that the javax.print.attribute.standard.PrinterStateReason is a "report" (least severe).
`static Severity`	`WARNING` Indicates that the javax.print.attribute.standard.PrinterStateReason is a "warning." An implementation may choose to omit some or all warnings.

Constructor Summary
`protected`	`Severity(int value)` Construct a new severity enumeration value with the given integer value.

Method Summary
`Class`	`getCategory()` Get the printing attribute class which is to be used as the "category" for this printing attribute value.
`protected EnumSyntax[]`	`getEnumValueTable()` Returns the enumeration value table for class Severity.
`String`	`getName()` Get the name of the category of which this attribute value is an instance.
`protected String[]`	`getStringTable()` Returns the string table for class Severity.

Field Detail

ERROR

public static final Severity ERROR

Indicates that the {@link PrinterStateReason PrinterStateReason} is an "error" (most severe). An implementation must include all errors. If this attribute contains one or more errors, the printer's {@link PrinterState PrinterState} must be STOPPED.

REPORT

public static final Severity REPORT

Indicates that the {@link PrinterStateReason PrinterStateReason} is a "report" (least severe). An implementation may choose to omit some or all reports. Some reports specify finer granularity about the printer state; others serve as a precursor to a warning. A report must contain nothing that could affect the printed output.

WARNING

public static final Severity WARNING

Indicates that the {@link PrinterStateReason PrinterStateReason} is a "warning." An implementation may choose to omit some or all warnings. Warnings serve as a precursor to an error. A warning must contain nothing that prevents a job from completing, though in some cases the output may be of lower quality.

Constructor Detail

Severity

protected Severity(int value)

Construct a new severity enumeration value with the given integer value.

Parameters:: value - Integer value.

Method Detail

getCategory

public final Class getCategory()

Get the printing attribute class which is to be used as the "category" for this printing attribute value.

For class Severity, the category is class Severity itself.

Returns:: Printing attribute class (category), an instance of class {@link java.lang.Class java.lang.Class}.

getEnumValueTable

protected EnumSyntax[] getEnumValueTable()

Returns the enumeration value table for class Severity.

Overrides:: getEnumValueTable in class EnumSyntax

getName

public final String getName()

Get the name of the category of which this attribute value is an instance.

For class Severit, the category name is "severity".

Returns:: Attribute category name.

getStringTable

protected String[] getStringTable()

Returns the string table for class Severity.

Overrides:: getStringTable in class EnumSyntax
