IMoneyProperty extends IProperty

A property backed by an IMoney instance

This is essentially a variant property with getter/setter, validation, default value, and some callbacks to modify behavior.

The property flags are mostly used for the persistence layer, and are normally accessed via IPropertySet.

Methods

setReadOnly()

Sets the property set to read only.

public setReadOnly( ) : void

This is a method because the model still needs to be written to when creating instances populated from persistent storage. The idea is for the mapping object factory to call this method after filling the model, but before returning it.

getPrefix()

Retrieve the prefix used to identify properties of a child model.

public getPrefix( ) : string

ie: parent model has property foo_bar child model has property bar

Prefix = foo_

parent->foo_bar = 'baz';

sets bar equal to 'baz' in the child model.

Return values
string

getConfig()

Retrieve random config data

public getConfig( ) : mixed
Return values
mixed

getId()

Retrieve the optionally set unique identifier for this property.

public getId( ) : int

This may be zero if unassigned.

Return values
int —

optional id

getCaption()

Retrieve the attribute caption/label.

public getCaption( ) : string

If no caption is listed, this returns name.

Return values
string

reset()

Initialize and/or reset the property state to default.

public reset( ) : IProperty

First checks for an init callback attached to IPropertyBehavior. If it exists, then the result of that callback is used as the default value, otherwise the default value specified during object construction is used.

Second, calls setValue() with the derived default value.

This allows the default value to go through validation.

I really don't like this, but it makes object construction more clear.
