public class ValueStub
extends ParameterStub
implements Value

The stub representation for a remote value. The remote value bound to is normally a RemoteSensorSkeleton. This class provides local access to the parameter data.

Constructor Detail

ValueStub

public ValueStub(String remotename)
          throws RemoteException

For convenience, we support a constructor with only the remote name.

Throws:

RemoteException

ValueStub

public ValueStub(Map prop)
          throws RemoteException

Constructs a new value stub. This value connects to a remote parameter. The value retrieved must be of Number type.

Throws:

RemoteException

Method Detail

getValue

public Number getValue()

Casts the parameter value retrieved with ParameterStub.get() to a Number. Does not check if the returned value is of type Number.

Specified by:

getValue in interface Value

setValue

public Number setValue(Number val)

Throws an unsupported operation exception. Precisely, calls the parental ParameterStub.set(java.lang.Object) method

Specified by:

setValue in interface Value
