- <body>
- <p>Provides classes and interfaces describing the roles and
- syntax of attribute objects in the Java Print Service API.</p>
- <p>
- The package contains the base attribute interface and several subinterfaces
- describing the different attribute roles of printing attributes. Furthermore,
- abstract classes defining the syntax of attributes are provided. For
- collections of attributes based on their roles different set interfaces and
- implementing classes are available.
- </p><p>
- Existing attribute roles are:
- <ul>
- <li><a href="PrintServiceAttribute.html">PrintServiceAttribute</a>s
- describing the state and other informations of a PrintService.</li>
- <li><a href="PrintJobAttribute.html">PrintJobAttribute</a>s describing
- the state of the print job.</li>
- <li><a href="PrintRequestAttribute.html">PrintRequestAttribute</a>s specifying
- how a print job should be printed and are applied to a complete print job.</li>
- <li><a href="PrintJobAttribute.html">PrintJobAttribute</a> s specifying
- how a single document in the print job should be printed.</li>
- </ul>
- </p><p>
- Every attribute is of a certain syntax which defines its type and the
- representation of its value. The different syntax types are provided as
- abstract syntax classes (e.g. <code>IntegerSyntax</code>). Concrete attribute
- implementations are subclasses of these abstract syntax classes.
- </p><p>
- Attributes may be collected as sets of attributes. Different interfaces for
- attribute collections per role and implementations based on a HashMap are
- provided (for example <a href="HashPrintJobAttributeSet.html">
- HashPrintJobAttributeSet</a> for the print job attributes).
