public ProxyDriver(String name)

Throws:

NoSuchMailboxException

Method Detail

name

public String name()

Description copied from interface: IDriver

An identifying name for the driver (e.g. "AIC" for the AIC driver).

Specified by:

name in interface IDriver

Returns:

The driver name

tearDown

public boolean tearDown()

Description copied from interface: IDriver

Deactivate the driver (usually in preparation for deep sleep). The driver should store any important state and release all resources it has claimed from other drivers.

Specified by:

tearDown in interface IDriver

Returns:

True if the driver is able to deactivate, false if it cannot deactivate (e.g. due to being busy with a data transfer). If any driver returns false, no deep sleep occurs and all other drivers will be reactivated.

setUp

public void setUp()

Description copied from interface: IDriver

Activate or reactivate the driver (after a deep sleep or when another driver refused to deep sleep). The driver should claim all the resources it needs from other drivers and reinitialize its hardware. It should also restore any state saved before tearDown.

Specified by:

setUp in interface IDriver

equals

public boolean equals(Object arg0)

Description copied from class: Object

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

The equals method implements an equivalence relation:

• It is reflexive: for any reference value x, x.equals(x) should return true.
• It is symmetric: for any reference values x and y, x.equals(y) should return true if and only if y.equals(x) returns true.
• It is transitive: for any reference values x, y, and z, if x.equals(y) returns true and y.equals(z) returns true, then x.equals(z) should return true.
• It is consistent: for any reference values x and y, multiple invocations of x.equals(y) consistently return true or consistently return false, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the object is modified.
• For any non-null reference value x, x.equals(null) should return false.

The equals method for class Object implements the most discriminating possible equivalence relation on objects; that is, for any reference values x and y, this method returns true if and only if x and y refer to the same object (x==y has the value true).

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

arg0 - the reference object with which to compare.

Returns:

true if this object is the same as the obj argument; false otherwise.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Description copied from class: Object

Returns a hash code value for the object. This method is supported for the benefit of hashtables such as those provided by java.util.Hashtable.

The general contract of hashCode is:

• Whenever it is invoked on the same object more than once during an execution of a Java application, the hashCode method must consistently return the same integer, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the object is modified. This integer need not remain consistent from one execution of an application to another execution of the same application.
• If two objects are equal according to the equals(Object) method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce the same integer result.
• It is not required that if two objects are unequal according to the Object.equals(java.lang.Object) method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce distinct integer results. However, the programmer should be aware that producing distinct integer results for unequal objects may improve the performance of hashtables.

As much as is reasonably practical, the hashCode method defined by class Object does return distinct integers for distinct objects. (This is typically implemented by converting the internal address of the object into an integer, but this implementation technique is not required by the Java^TM programming language.)

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

Returns:

a hash code value for this object.
