javax.print.attribute

## Class IntegerSyntax

- java.lang.Object
- - javax.print.attribute.IntegerSyntax

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Cloneable
  Direct Known Subclasses:
    Copies, JobImpressions, JobImpressionsCompleted, JobKOctets, JobKOctetsProcessed, JobMediaSheets, JobMediaSheetsCompleted, JobPriority, JobPrioritySupported, NumberOfDocuments, NumberOfInterveningJobs, NumberUp, PagesPerMinute, PagesPerMinuteColor, QueuedJobCount

      public abstract class IntegerSyntax
      extends Object
      implements Serializable, Cloneable

  Class IntegerSyntax is an abstract base class providing the common implementation of all attributes with integer values.

  Under the hood, an integer attribute is just an integer. You can get an integer attribute's integer value by calling `getValue()`. An integer attribute's integer value is established when it is constructed (see `IntegerSyntax(int)`). Once constructed, an integer attribute's value is immutable.

    Constructors
    Modifier | Constructor and Description
    --- | ---
    `protected` | `IntegerSyntax(int value)` Construct a new integer attribute with the given integer value.
    `protected` | `IntegerSyntax(int value, int lowerBound, int upperBound)` Construct a new integer attribute with the given integer value, which must lie within the given range.

  - ### Method Summary

    All Methods Instance Methods Concrete Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `boolean` | `equals(Object object)` Returns whether this integer attribute is equivalent to the passed in object.
    `int` | `getValue()` Returns this integer attribute's integer value.
    `int` | `hashCode()` Returns a hash code value for this integer attribute.
    `String` | `toString()` Returns a string value corresponding to this integer attribute.

- - ### Constructor Detail

    - #### IntegerSyntax

          protected IntegerSyntax(int value)

      Construct a new integer attribute with the given integer value.
      Parameters:
        `value` - Integer value.

    - #### IntegerSyntax

          protected IntegerSyntax(int value,
                                  int lowerBound,
                                  int upperBound)

      Construct a new integer attribute with the given integer value, which must lie within the given range.
      Parameters:
        `value` - Integer value.
        `lowerBound` - Lower bound.
        `upperBound` - Upper bound.
      Throws:
        `IllegalArgumentException` - (Unchecked exception) Thrown if `value` is less than `lowerBound` or greater than `upperBound`.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### getValue

          public int getValue()

      Returns this integer attribute's integer value.
      Returns:
        the integer value

    - #### equals

          public boolean equals(Object object)

      Returns whether this integer attribute is equivalent to the passed in object. To be equivalent, all of the following conditions must be true:
      1. `object` is not null.
      2. `object` is an instance of class IntegerSyntax.
      3. This integer attribute's value and `object`'s value are equal.
      Overrides:
        `equals` in class `Object`
      Parameters:
        `object` - Object to compare to.
      Returns:
        True if `object` is equivalent to this integer attribute, false otherwise.
      See Also:
        `Object.hashCode()`, `HashMap`

    - #### hashCode

          public int hashCode()

      Returns a hash code value for this integer attribute. The hash code is just this integer attribute's integer value.
      Overrides:
        `hashCode` in class `Object`
      Returns:
        a hash code value for this object.
      See Also:
        `Object.equals(java.lang.Object)`, `System.identityHashCode(java.lang.Object)`

    - #### toString

          public String toString()

      Returns a string value corresponding to this integer attribute. The string value is just this integer attribute's integer value converted to a string.
      Overrides:
        `toString` in class `Object`
      Returns:
        a string representation of the object.
