Class starSpec

java.lang.Object

name.moore.kevin.ze.XMLdata.XMLbase

name.moore.kevin.ze.XMLdata.specs.starSpec

public class starSpec
extends XMLbase

The read-only properties of a particular type or classification (eg class "M") of a star. These properties are fixed and thus have no setter methods since there is no in-game reason to change them or create them.

Objects are initialised by loading XML via XStream.

Use the real Morgan–Keenan (MK) stellar classification system. wikipedia

Description copied from class: XMLbase

Called automatically when loading from XML as part of JDK serialisation.

Overrides:

readResolve in class XMLbase

Returns:

null if we can't create a valid object

Description copied from class: XMLbase

Derived classes have to override this and say what class eg engine.class they are. This allows us to use this base class but discover the derived class.

Specified by:

Returns:
