Parameters:

handle - The handle that represents a pointer to a native resource.

Method Detail

getHandle

public final Handle getHandle()

Get the raw handle value. This value should never be modified by the application. It's sole use is to pass to native methods.

Returns:

the handle value.

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object other)

Check if two objects refer to the same (native) object.

Overrides:

equals in class java.lang.Object

Parameters:

other - the reference object with which to compare.

Returns:

true if both objects refer to the same object.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns a hash code value for the object. This allows for using Struct as keys in hashmaps.

Overrides:

hashCode in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

a hash code value for the object.

setHandle

protected void setHandle(Handle hndl)

Sets this object's native handle.

getNullHandle

public static final Handle getNullHandle()

Get a native handle that refers to a null pointer.
