Method Summary

void	destroy() Destroys this object cluster-wide.
Object	getId() Deprecated. use getName() instead
String	getName() Returns the unique name for this DistributedObject.
String	getPartitionKey() Returns the key of partition this DistributedObject is assigned to.

Method Detail

getId

@Deprecated
Object getId()

Deprecated. use getName() instead

Returns the unique id for this object.

Returns:

id the of this instance

getPartitionKey

String getPartitionKey()

Returns the key of partition this DistributedObject is assigned to. The returned value only has meaning for a non partitioned data-structure like an IAtomicLong. For a partitioned data-structure like an IMap the returned value will not be null, but otherwise undefined.

Returns:

the partition key.

getName

String getName()

Returns the unique name for this DistributedObject. Returned value will never be null.

Returns:

the unique name for this object.

getServiceName

String getServiceName()

Returns the service name for this object.

destroy

void destroy()

Destroys this object cluster-wide. Clears and releases all resources for this object.
