- public class ZonedDecimalFieldDescription
- extends FieldDescription
- implements Serializable
The ZonedDecimalFieldDescription class represents the description of the data in a zoned decimal field.
The ZonedDecimalFieldDescription class allows:
- The user to describe a zoned decimal field to the RecordFormat object.
- The RecordFormat object to describe a zoned decimal field to the user.
Examples
-
ZonedDecimalFieldDescription()
- Constructs a ZonedDecimalFieldDescription object.
-
ZonedDecimalFieldDescription(AS400ZonedDecimal, String)
- Constructs a ZonedDecimalFieldDescription object.
-
ZonedDecimalFieldDescription(AS400ZonedDecimal, String, String)
- Constructs a ZonedDecimalFieldDescription object.
-
getDecimalPositions()
- Returns the number of digits after the decimal point for this field.
-
setDataType(AS400ZonedDecimal)
- Sets the AS400DataType object describing this field.
-
setDFT(BigDecimal)
- Sets the value for the DFT keyword for this field.
-
setDFTNull()
- Sets the value for the DFT keyword to be *NULL for this field.
ZonedDecimalFieldDescription
public ZonedDecimalFieldDescription()
- Constructs a ZonedDecimalFieldDescription object.
ZonedDecimalFieldDescription
public ZonedDecimalFieldDescription(AS400ZonedDecimal dataType,
String name)
- Constructs a ZonedDecimalFieldDescription object. It uses the data
type and name of the field specified.
The number of digits and the number of decimal positions will be determined from
dataType.
- Parameters:
- dataType - Describes the field and provides
the conversion capability for the contents of the field.
- name - The name of the field.
ZonedDecimalFieldDescription
public ZonedDecimalFieldDescription(AS400ZonedDecimal dataType,
String name,
String ddsName)
- Constructs a ZonedDecimalFieldDescription object. It uses the
data type, name, and DDS name of the field specified.
The number of digits and the number of decimal positions will be determined from
dataType.
- Parameters:
- dataType - Describes the field and provides
the conversion capability for the contents of the field.
- name - The name of the field.
- ddsName - The DDS name of this field. This is the
name of the field as it would appear in a DDS description of the
field. The length of ddsName must be 10 characters or less.
getDecimalPositions
public int getDecimalPositions()
- Returns the number of digits after the decimal point for this field.
- Returns:
- The number of digits after the decimal point.
setDataType
public void setDataType(AS400ZonedDecimal dataType)
- Sets the AS400DataType object describing this field.
- Parameters:
- dataType - The AS400DataType that describes this field. The dataType
cannot be null.
setDFT
public void setDFT(BigDecimal defaultValue)
- Sets the value for the DFT keyword for this field.
- Parameters:
- defaultValue - The default value for this
field. The defaultValue cannot be null.
To set a default value of *NULL, use the setDFTNull() method.
setDFTNull
public void setDFTNull()
- Sets the value for the DFT keyword to be *NULL for this field.
Calling this method will replace the DFT keyword that was previously
set on a call to setDFT(). Note: This field
must also have its ALWNULL keyword set to true to prevent DDS errors.
