public class AutodefiningParameters
extends Parameters

If there is no Parameter definition array available you could try it with this specialization, which does not need one. You loose al checking on type and availability. It should only be used as a last fall back and accompanied by warnings.

indexOfParameter

public int indexOfParameter(Parameter parameter)

Description copied from class: Parameters

Returns the position of a parameter in the parameters list, using the Parameter as a qualifier. you can then acecss that paramter with Parameters.get(int).

Overrides:

indexOfParameter in class Parameters

Parameters:

parameter - the parameter

Returns:

the index of the parameter, or -1 if it doesn't exist

indexOfParameter

public int indexOfParameter(String parameterName)

Description copied from class: Parameters

Returns the position of a parameter in the parameters list, using the parameter name as a qualifier. you can then acecss that paramter with Parameters.get(int).

Overrides:

indexOfParameter in class Parameters

Parameters:

parameterName - the name of the parameter

Returns:

the index of the parameter, or -1 if it doesn't exist
