Class TextBasedMessageData

java.lang.Object
  net.sf.sdedit.diagram.MessageData
      net.sf.sdedit.text.TextBasedMessageData

public class TextBasedMessageData
extends MessageData

MessageData is data derived from strings representing messages exchanged between objects. These strings have the following format:

          {caller}[{level},{thread}]:>{answer}={callee}.{message}
 

{caller}, {callee} and {message} are strings and are mandatory. {answer}= is a string and is optional. [{level}] is optional, where {level} is an integer number.

When the parse method has finished, the parts of the string can be fetched via get methods. If no level is given, level is 0. If no answer is specified, answer is the empty string.
