Instances of this interface are used to configure tasks with input values (properties) that are resolved from the SDKReferences in the caller context.
Clients may implement this interface. When doing so, make sure to adhere to the hashCode() and
equals(

public static SDKPropertyReference | Creates a new SDKPropertyReference that resolves the property for a given identifier. |
public static SDKPropertyReference | createWithFormat( Creates a new SDKPropertyReference that derives the property value using the given format and associated

The equals
method implements an equivalence relation on non-null object references:
- It is reflexive: for any non-null reference value
x
,x.equals(x)
should returntrue
. - It is symmetric: for any non-null reference values
x
andy
,x.equals(y)
should returntrue
if and only ify.equals(x)
returnstrue
. - It is transitive: for any non-null reference values
x
,y
, andz
, ifx.equals(y)
returnstrue
andy.equals(z)
returnstrue
, thenx.equals(z)
should returntrue
. - It is consistent: for any non-null reference values
x
andy
, multiple invocations ofx.equals(y)
consistently returntrue
or consistently returnfalse
, provided no information used inequals
comparisons on the objects is modified. - For any non-null reference value
x
,x.equals(null)
should returnfalse
.
The equals
method for class Object
implements the most discriminating possible equivalence
relation on objects; that is, for any non-null reference values x
and y
, this method returns
true
if and only if x
and y
refer to the same object (x == y
has the value
true
).
Note that it is generally necessary to override the hashCode
method whenever this method is overridden,
so as to maintain the general contract for the hashCode
method, which states that equal objects must have
equal hash codes.
true
if this object is the same as the obj argument; false
otherwise.The implementation will retrieve the property in an implementation dependent manner.
The argument SDK is the one that is associated with the SDK name in the context of the operation.
If the property cannot be retrieved from the SDK, then the method may return null
or throw an
exception.
null
if the resolution failed.The method can access the information accessible via the argument SDKs and construct the return value based on that.
The result can be null
, but implementations are encouraged to throw an appropriate exception
instead.

The general contract of hashCode
is:
- Whenever it is invoked on the same object more than once during an execution of a Java application, the
hashCode
method must consistently return the same integer, provided no information used inequals
comparisons on the object is modified. This integer need not remain consistent from one execution of an application to another execution of the same application. - If two objects are equal according to the
equals(Object)
method, then calling thehashCode
method on each of the two objects must produce the same integer result. - It is not required that if two objects are unequal according to the
Object.equals(
Object) method, then calling thehashCode
method on each of the two objects must produce distinct integer results. However, the programmer should be aware that producing distinct integer results for unequal objects may improve the performance of hash tables.
As much as is reasonably practical, the hashCode method defined by class Object
does return distinct
integers for distinct objects. (This is typically implemented by converting the internal address of the object
into an integer, but this implementation technique is not required by the Java™ programming language.)
