ByteArrayClass (ProCAKE Framework 4.0.0 API)

All Superinterfaces:

AtomicClass, DataClass, PropertyHandler

All Known Implementing Classes:

ByteArrayClassImpl
```
public interface ByteArrayClass
extends AtomicClass
```
A ByteArray can be used to store more complex data objects like images or documents.
Internally, it is an array of bytes, but conceptually it is used as one value, e.g., one image. To distinguish the different kind of content types it is necessary to specify the mime type of the content.

- Field Detail
  - CLASS_NAME
```
static final String CLASS_NAME
```
    The name of the class. This name should be used in Model.getClass(String) to receive the system class. The value is * "ByteArray" .

  - setMaxSize
```
void setMaxSize(long maxSize)
         throws IllegalEditException
```
    Specify the maximum size of the byte array that is allowed in the ByteArrayObject.
    
    Parameters:
    
    maxSize - The maximum size.
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalEditException
  - getMimeType
```
String getMimeType()
```

  - setMimeType
```
void setMimeType(String mimeType)
          throws IllegalEditException
```
    Specifies the mime type of the content of a ByteArrayObject.
    
    Parameters:
