Constructor Detail

QuantitationType

public QuantitationType()
Default constructor.


QuantitationType

public QuantitationType(org.xml.sax.Attributes atts)
Attribute constructor. Looks up the attributes in the parameter and casts them from strings appropriately

Method Detail

writeAttributes This method is responsible for assembling the attribute data into XML. It calls the super method to write out all attributes of this class and it's ancestors.

Overrides:
writeAttributes in class Identifiable
java.io.IOException

writeAssociations

public void writeAssociations(java.io.Writer out)
                       throws java.io.IOException
writeAssociations This method is responsible for assembling the association data into XML. It calls the super method to write out all associations of this class's ancestors.

Overrides:
writeAssociations in class Identifiable
java.io.IOException
