Interface AttributeList

All Superinterfaces:

AttributeCollection, java.lang.Cloneable, Restrictable

public interface AttributeList

extends AttributeCollection

This interface defines an ordered collection of attributes. An AttributeList can contain Attributes with the same name. So there might be two Attributes a1 and a2 for which a1.getName().equals(a2.getName()) is true. An AttributeList can contain nested AttributeLists.
