Class Overview

An active item has an item identifier. That id can be interpreted by the IUnit that produced the item. Retrieving which actions are supported by an item can be done by querying the owner unit. Several items may have the same id, for example, when they refer to the same abstraction. Those implementation details are the responsibility of the unit.

Summary

Constants
int ROLE_MASTER This flag is used in the case where multiple items have the same id.
Public Methods

Retrieve the item flags.
abstract long getItemId()
Retrieve the item id.

Constants

public static final int ROLE_MASTER

This flag is used in the case where multiple items have the same id. Only one of those items may have this flag set. It is used to provide a hint to the client as of which of these items should be considered the "master", or root item. The official RCP client, for instance, uses this flag to implement jumps (or go-tos) from one item to the associated master item.

Constant Value: 1 (0x00000001)
