    Description copied from interface: StaticStructure
    
    Validates the state of the discriminated unions and HasFieldsOf restrictions (if any) in this Java language binding Structure.
    More precisely, for each union: given value of the discriminant/tag field (@UnionTag in the IDL) of an union in this structure, validates that:
  - all fields of the union required for that value of the discriminant are set
  - fields of the union that are not allowed for that value of the discriminant are not set
  - any other fields of the structure (not participating in the union) do not affect the validation result

Specified by:: _validate in interface StaticStructure

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object obj)

Overrides:: equals in class java.lang.Object

hashCode
```
public int hashCode()
```
Overrides:

hashCode in class java.lang.Object

toString
```
public java.lang.String toString()
```
Description copied from interface: StaticStructure

Returns a string representation of this structure. The result is pretty printed in order to be easy to read. It is intended to be used for different debugging/tracing purposes, e.g. dumping structures into logging traces.
In general no code should depend on the format of the resulting string. E.g. there must be no attempts to parse for re-creation of the original instance.

Specified by:

toString in interface StaticStructure

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

Returns:
a string representation of this static structure instance

_hasTypeNameOf
```

Specified by:

_hasTypeNameOf in interface Structure

Parameters:
clazz - type of the result structure. cannot be null.

Returns:
true if this structures type name matches exactly the provided class type name.

_convertTo
```
public <T extends Structure> T _convertTo(java.lang.Class<T> clazz)
```
Description copied from interface: Structure

Converts this structure into an instance of the provided class structure if possible. A conversion will be possible if the requested structure's fields are all present in this structure.

Specified by:

_convertTo in interface Structure

Parameters:
clazz - type of the result structure. cannot be null.

Returns:
an instance of the requested type if conversion is possible. CoreException is thrown otherwise.

Returns:
StructType instance representing the static bindings type for this Structure.

_getCanonicalName
```
public java.lang.String _getCanonicalName()
```
Description copied from interface: Structure

Returns the canonical name of the structure. By default the canonical name is derived from the fully-qualified IDL name by converting to lower case and inserting underscores between words. For example org.example.FooBar would turn into org.example.foo_bar.

Specified by:

_getCanonicalName in interface Structure

Returns:
canonical name

_getCanonicalTypeName
```
public static java.lang.String _getCanonicalTypeName()
```
Returns the canonical type name. See _getCanonicalName().

Returns:
canonical type name

_newInstance
```
public static CommonInfo _newInstance(StructValue structValue)
```
WARNING: Internal method, subject to change in future versions.
Returns new instance of this binding class and injects the provided data value.
WARNING: The returned object is not fully initialized.

Parameters:
structValue - the source of the data contained in the binding object. Could contain more data than fields of this class can describe i.e. newer version of the binding object. Could be null.

Returns:
the static bindings StructType
