Interface PageMessage

  • All Superinterfaces:
    Message

    public interface PageMessage
    extends Message

    An instance of PageMessage represents updates to a Page subject.

     

    An object implementing this interface cannot be instantiated directly, but can be constructed using the MessageFactory that is available on the Publisher interface.

     

    Each update applies to a region of the page that starts at a specific column and row.

     

    If you call setContent(int, int, String) more than once, and the page regions specified in successive calls overlap, the updates are still held separately in the message; they are not merged together.

    • Method Detail

      • setContent

        void setContent​(int column,
                        int row,
                        java.lang.String content)

        Updates the contents of the page at the specified location.

        Parameters:
        column - The column at which the content is to be updated. The leftmost column of the page is column 0.
        row - The row at which the content is to be updated. The top row of the page is row 0.
        content - The page content to be placed at the specified row and column.
      • getWidth

        int getWidth()

        Gets the width of the page, in text columns.

         

        This value is valid on all PageMessage instances created using the MessageFactory interface. However it may be undefined (and hence have a value of -1) on instances received by an implementation of SubscriptionListener

         

        The first character on a page is at column zero. Therefore the maximum modifiable column is at position (Width - 1).

        Returns:
        The width of the page, in text columns.
      • setWidth

        void setWidth​(int width)

        Sets the width of the page, in text columns.

         

        This value is valid on all PageMessage instances created using the MessageFactory interface. However it may be undefined (and hence have a value of -1) on instances received by an implementation of SubscriptionListener.

        The first character on a page is at column zero. Therefore the maximum modifiable column is at position (Width - 1).

        Parameters:
        width - The width of the page, in text columns.
      • getHeight

        int getHeight()

        Gets the height of the page, in text rows.

         

        This value is valid on all PageMessage instances created using the MessageFactory interface, however it may be undefined (and hence have a value of -1) on instances received by an implementation of SubscriptionListener.

         

        The first character on a page is at row zero. Therefore the maximum modifiable row is at position (height - 1).

        Returns:
        The height of the page, in text rows.
      • setHeight

        void setHeight​(int height)

        Sets the height of the page, in text rows.

         

        The first character on a page is at row zero. Therefore the maximum modifiable row is at row (height - 1).

        Parameters:
        height - The height of the page, in text rows.
      • getPageType

        java.lang.String getPageType()

        Gets the type of the page.
