Constructor Detail

Expertise

public Expertise(String skill)

Creates an expertise property.

Parameters:

skill - the skill (e.g. "Java programming")

Method Detail

_supportedVersions

public Set<VCardVersion> _supportedVersions()

Description copied from class: VCardProperty

Gets the vCard versions that support this property.

This method should be overridden by child classes if the property does not support all vCard versions. The default implementation of this method returns all vCard versions.

Overrides:

_supportedVersions in class VCardProperty

Returns:

the vCard versions that support this property.

getLevel

public ExpertiseLevel getLevel()

Gets the level of knowledge the person has for this skill.

Returns:

the skill level (e.g. "beginner") or null if not set

See Also:

VCardParameters.getLevel()

setLevel

public void setLevel(ExpertiseLevel level)

Sets the level of knowledge the person has for this skill.

Parameters:

level - the skill level (e.g. "beginner") or null to remove

See Also:

VCardParameters.setLevel(java.lang.String)

getIndex

public Integer getIndex()

Description copied from class: VCardProperty

Gets the sorted position of this property when it is grouped together with other properties of the same type. Properties with low index values are put at the beginning of the sorted list and properties with high index values are put at the end of the list.

Returns:

the index or null if not set

See Also:

VCardParameters.setIndex(java.lang.Integer)

setIndex

public void setIndex(Integer index)

Description copied from class: VCardProperty

Sets the sorted position of this property when it is grouped together with other properties of the same type. Properties with low index values are put at the beginning of the sorted list and properties with high index values are put at the end of the list.

Parameters:

index - the index or null to remove

See Also:

VCardParameters.setIndex(java.lang.Integer)

getType

public String getType()

Gets the TYPE parameter.

Returns:

the TYPE value (typically, this will be either "work" or "home") or null if it doesn't exist

setType

public void setType(String type)

Sets the TYPE parameter.

Parameters:

type - the TYPE value (this should be either "work" or "home") or null to remove

getLanguage

public String getLanguage()

Description copied from class: VCardProperty

Gets the language that the property value is written in.

Returns:

the language or null if not set

See Also:

VCardParameters.getLanguage()

setLanguage

public void setLanguage(String language)

Description copied from class: VCardProperty

Sets the language that the property value is written in.

Parameters:

language - the language or null to remove

See Also:

VCardParameters.setLanguage(java.lang.String)

getPref

public Integer getPref()

Description copied from class: VCardProperty

Gets the preference value. The lower the number, the more preferred this property instance is compared with other properties in the same vCard of the same type. If a property doesn't have a preference value, then it is considered the least preferred.

Supported versions: 4.0

Returns:

the preference value or null if it doesn't exist

See Also:

VCardParameters.getPref()

setPref

public void setPref(Integer pref)

Description copied from class: VCardProperty

Sets the preference value. The lower the number, the more preferred this property instance is compared with other properties in the same vCard of the same type. If a property doesn't have a preference value, then it is considered the least preferred.

Supported versions: 4.0

Parameters:

pref - the preference value or null to remove

See Also:

VCardParameters.setPref(java.lang.Integer)

getAltId

public String getAltId()

Description copied from interface: HasAltId

Supported versions: 4.0

Specified by:

getAltId in interface HasAltId

Returns:

the ALTID or null if it doesn't exist

See Also:

VCardParameters.getAltId()

setAltId

public void setAltId(String altId)

Description copied from interface: HasAltId

Sets the property's ALTID parameter.
