Method Details

add

public void add(IStatus status)

Adds the given status to this multi-status.

Parameters:

status - the new child status

addAll

public void addAll(IStatus status)

Adds all of the children of the given status to this multi-status. Does nothing if the given status has no children (which includes the case where it is not a multi-status).

Parameters:

status - the status whose children are to be added to this one

getChildren

public IStatus[] getChildren()

Description copied from interface: IStatus

Returns a list of status object immediately contained in this multi-status, or an empty list if this is not a multi-status.

Specified by:

getChildren in interface IStatus

Overrides:

getChildren in class Status

Returns:

an array of status objects

See Also:

• IStatus.isMultiStatus()

isMultiStatus

public boolean isMultiStatus()

Description copied from interface: IStatus

Returns whether this status is a multi-status. A multi-status describes the outcome of an operation involving multiple operands.

The severity of a multi-status is derived from the severities of its children; a multi-status with no children is OK by definition. A multi-status carries a plug-in identifier, a status code, a message, and an optional exception. Clients may treat multi-status objects in a multi-status unaware way.

Specified by:

isMultiStatus in interface IStatus

Overrides:

isMultiStatus in class Status

Returns:

true for a multi-status, false otherwise

See Also:

• IStatus.getChildren()

merge

public void merge(IStatus status)

Merges the given status into this multi-status. Equivalent to add(status) if the given status is not a multi-status. Equivalent to addAll(status) if the given status is a multi-status.

Parameters:

status - the status to merge into this one

See Also:

• add(IStatus)
• addAll(IStatus)

toString

public String toString()

Returns a string representation of the status, suitable for debugging purposes only.

Overrides:

toString in class Status
