Virtual machine folder into which the virtual machine should be placed. This property is currently required. In the future, if this property is null, the system will attempt to choose a suitable folder for the virtual machine; if a folder cannot be chosen, the virtual machine creation operation will fail.

Returns:

The current value of the property. When clients pass a value of this class as a parameter, the property must be an identifier for the resource type: Folder. When methods return a value of this class as a return value, the property will be an identifier for the resource type: Folder.

setFolder

public void setFolder(java.lang.String folder)

_getType

public com.vmware.vapi.bindings.type.StructType _getType()

Description copied from interface: StaticStructure

WARNING: Internal method, subject to change in future versions. Returns StructType instance representing the static bindings type for this Structure.

Specified by:

_getType in interface StaticStructure

Returns:

the static bindings StructType

_getDataValue

public StructValue _getDataValue()

Description copied from interface: Structure

Returns this Structure represented in the dynamic DataValue model.

Attempts to change the returned StructValue representation are not required to change the state of this structure. Actually the behavior is implementation dependent and is unspecified. In general the returned value shouldn't be changed.

Specified by:

_getDataValue in interface Structure

Returns:

StructValue representing this structure

_updateDataValue

protected void _updateDataValue(StructValue structValue)

_validate

public void _validate()

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

public boolean _hasTypeNameOf(java.lang.Class<? extends Structure> clazz)

Description copied from interface: Structure

Checks if the runtime type name of this structure matches the type represented by the specified binding class.

This can be used as efficient check to determine if this instance can be successfully converted to the target type.

Specified by:

_hasTypeNameOf in interface Structure

Parameters:

clazz - bindings class for the target structure; must not be null

Returns:

true if this structures type name matches exactly the specified 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.

_setDynamicField

public void _setDynamicField(java.lang.String fieldName,
                    DataValue fieldValue)

Description copied from interface: StaticStructure

Specified by:

_setDynamicField in interface StaticStructure

Parameters:

fieldName - canonical name of the dynamic field to set

fieldValue - the value of the field
