Overrides: pentaho.visual.role.AbstractProperty#$type

Methods Details

toJSON() : JsonValue

Creates a top-level JSON specification that describes this instance.

Attributes which do not have a JSON-compatible specification are omitted. Specifically, for inline types, attributes with a function value are not supported.

This method simply calls pentaho.type.Instance#toSpec with argument keyArgs.isJson as true and exists for seamless integration with JavaScript's JSON.stringify method.

Source: javascript/web/pentaho/type/Instance.js, line 197

Inherited From: pentaho.type.Instance#toJSON

Returns:
Name	Description
`JsonValue`	A JSON-compatible specification.

See also: pentaho.type.Instance#toSpec

toSpec(keyArgs) : any

Creates a top-level specification that describes this instance.

If an ambient specification context currently exists, it is used to manage the serialization process. Otherwise, one is created and set as current. Then, the actual work is delegated to pentaho.type.Instance#toSpecInContext.
