Class ElementMap

java.lang.Object

com.vmware.vapi.metadata.metamodel.ElementMap

All Implemented Interfaces:

com.vmware.vapi.bindings.StaticStructure, com.vmware.vapi.bindings.Structure, java.io.Serializable

public final class ElementMap
extends java.lang.Object
implements java.io.Serializable, com.vmware.vapi.bindings.StaticStructure

The ElementMap class contains the metadata elements.

One of the sources for metadata is the annotations present in the interface definition language. When an annotation is represented in the ElementMap, ElementMap describes the data specified in the arguments for the annotation.

For example, in @UnionCase(tag="tag", value="SELECT"), ElementMap describes the keyword arguments tag and value.
