JavaDoc documentation of IModel [message #1854859]

Hi, we are trying to implement an EMC and have found that the IModel interface only has syntactical definitions and no documentation. We are not sure in which order and how often the various methods can be called. Where can we find a description of the general contract or a state machine that describes the lifecycle of a model.

For example, we are wondering if the store method can only be called once or should be safe to be called multiple times? Also, what does the Boolean return parameter signify?

Thanks,
Sam Harris

Hi Sam,

An EMC model is expected to be loaded (using load()) once, it can be stored multiple times and after disposing of it (using dispose()), it should no longer be used. The return parameter of store() signifies whether the model was successfully stored.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Thanks,
Dimitris
