Interface ValueMap

All Known Implementing Classes:
AbstractValueMap, IntegerValueMap

Deprecated. Use packages com.ibm.as400.access and com.ibm.as400.access.list instead.

public interface ValueMap

The ValueMap interface represents a mapping between physical and logical values. While this could be used in many contexts, the most common is to consider the physical value as stored on or communicated to a server, and the logical value to be manipulated or externalized in Java.

This class is intended as a helper class for implementing subclasses of Resource.
