All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Comparable<ClassificationPropagationRule>, Constable

public enum ClassificationPropagationRule extends Enum<ClassificationPropagationRule> implements Serializable
ClassificationPropagationRule is part of a relationship definition (RelationshipDef). It indicates whether classifications from one entity should propagate across a relationship instance. It allows classification for, say confidentiality to be propagated to related entities.

The propagation rule defines the direction of propagation:

  • NONE: no propagation of classifications across the relationship.
  • ONE_TO_TWO: from entity at end 1 of the relationship to the entity at end 2 of the relationship.
  • TWO_TO_ONE: from entity at end 2 of the relationship to the entity at end 1 of the relationship.
  • BOTH: two way propagation.

    • values

      public static ClassificationPropagationRule[] values()
      Returns an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared.
      Returns:
      an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared
    • valueOf

      public static ClassificationPropagationRule valueOf(String name)
      Returns the enum constant of this class with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this class. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
      Parameters:
      name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
      Returns:
      the enum constant with the specified name
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if this enum class has no constant with the specified name
      NullPointerException - if the argument is null
    • getOrdinal

      public int getOrdinal()
      Return the numeric representation of the propagation rule.
      Returns:
      int ordinal
    • getName

      public String getName()
      Return the default name of the propagation rule.
      Returns:
      String name
    • getDescription

      public String getDescription()
      Return the default description of the propagation rule.
      Returns:
      String description
    • toString

      public String toString()
      toString() JSON-style
      Overrides:
      toString in class Enum<ClassificationPropagationRule>
      Returns:
      string description
