Each type has a numeric ID (or ordinal value): public int getId(); A name and a type string is kept ready for the tool support. public String getName(); public String getTypeString(); A flag indicates whether data in the type is transportable or only available locally in a node. public boolean isStorable() Notes CSlotType supports the equals() and hashCode() methods. https://sillysky.net/docs/nyssr/messages/crecord/igeneratedrecord/ Tue, 14 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000 https://sillysky.net/docs/nyssr/messages/crecord/igeneratedrecord/ IGeneratedRecord is just an empty marker interface. It is used by generated record classes. https://sillysky.net/docs/nyssr/messages/crecord/isingleslottypefactory/ Tue, 14 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000 https://sillysky.net/docs/nyssr/messages/crecord/isingleslottypefactory/ This interface is a factory for creating a single slot type. If custom slot types are to be introduced, a class must be created for each slot type that implements this interface. Likewise, a class must be created that implements the ISlot interface. Slot type The factory identifies itself with the produced slot type. @NotNull CSlotType getType(); Class of the transported value Slots always transport a certain Java type. This is returned here. https://sillysky.net/docs/nyssr/messages/crecord/islot/ Tue, 14 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000 https://sillysky.net/docs/nyssr/messages/crecord/islot/ The slot is a component of the record, which means it belongs to the message. It consists of a slot type and the data it transports. The implementation remains hidden, so that you only have to deal with the ISlot interface. The object itself is put into a form in the slot that can be used to transport it via DataStreams or JSON. Slots are created via a factory, the ISlotFactory. https://sillysky.net/docs/nyssr/messages/crecord/cslotfactory/ Tue, 14 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000 https://sillysky.net/docs/nyssr/messages/crecord/cslotfactory/ The SlotFactory creates slots for use in Records in Messages. It is expandable with custom slot types. The SlotFactory can be fetched as a service via the ServiceRegistry: final ISlotFactory slotFactory = CServiceRegistry.getInstance() .getService(ISlotFactory.class); Creation of a slot To create a slot we need the slot type: ISlot create(CSlotType aType) throws CException; The slot type can also be determined by the system by specifying a value: ISlot fromObject(@Nullable Object aValue); If you want to be on the safe side, you can also specify both:
