The persistence key may be different from the actual project key. It indicates the location of the persisted database. return: persistence key ## Method: getPersistenceStrategy - return type: `int` Description: This convenience routine is used to retrieve the JDB2 [#PersistenceStrategy](#PersistenceStrategy) currently used by this project. return: persistence strategy value ## Method: getProcessor - return type: `com.pnfsoftware.jeb.core.units.IUnitProcessor` Description: Retrieve the processor \(parser\) used by this project to process input data and generate units. return: unit processor ## Method: getPropertyDefinitionManager - return type: `com.pnfsoftware.jeb.core.properties.IPropertyDefinitionManager` Description: Get the PDM of this project. Each project has it own PDM. return: project property\-definition manager ## Method: getPropertyManager - return type: `com.pnfsoftware.jeb.core.properties.IPropertyManager` Description: Get the PM of this project. Each project has its own PM. return: project property manager ## Method: getRecordedTimestamp - return type: `long` Description: Retrieve the last time this project was saved to JDB2. return: unix timestamp in milliseconds; 0 if the project was never saved \([#isReloaded()](#isReloaded()) would also return false\) ## Method: getUptime - return type: `long` Description: Retrieve the duration this project has been opened JEB since it's been last opened. return: duration in milliseconds ## Method: hasLiveArtifacts - return type: `boolean` Description: Determine whether the project currently contains live artifacts. return: true if at least one live artifact is present ## Method: isClosed - return type: `boolean` Description: Determine whether this project has been closed. return: true if the project is closed ## Method: isReloaded - return type: `boolean` Description: Determine whether this project is new \(it was created\), or was reloaded from a JDB2 database. return: true if the project was reloaded from persisted data ## Method: processArtifact - parameter: `file`, type: `java.io.File` - return type: `com.pnfsoftware.jeb.core.ILiveArtifact` Description: Process a file artifact into this project. parameter: file: input file return: an artifact living in the project, likely to hold one or more parent [unit](IUnit)s throws: on artifact\-processing error ## Method: processArtifact - parameter: `artifact`, type: `com.pnfsoftware.jeb.core.IArtifact` - return type: `com.pnfsoftware.jeb.core.ILiveArtifact` Description: Process an artifact into this project. parameter: artifact: an [Artifact](Artifact), likely backed by a [file](FileInput) return: an artifact living in the project, likely to hold one or more parent [unit](IUnit)s ## Method: processArtifact - parameter: `artifact`, type: `com.pnfsoftware.jeb.core.IArtifact` - parameter: `wantedType`, type: `java.lang.String` - parameter: `softDelegation`, type: `boolean` - parameter: `doNotProcessUnit`, type: `boolean` - return type: `com.pnfsoftware.jeb.core.ILiveArtifact` Description: Process an artifact into this project. parameter: artifact: an [Artifact](Artifact), likely backed by a [file](FileInput) parameter: wantedType: leave null to let the parser determine the type of artifact; see [IUnitProcessor](IUnitProcessor) for details parameter: softDelegation: prefer soft delegation and avoid creating generic unit if the input type was undetermined; see [IUnitProcessor](IUnitProcessor) for details parameter: doNotProcessUnit: set to true to skip unit processing \(the yielded unit, if any, would simply be created\) return: an artifact living in the project, likely to hold one or more parent [unit](IUnit)s ## Method: setName - parameter: `name`, type: `java.lang.String` Description: Retrieve this project name. parameter: name: project name ## Method: setNotes - parameter: `notes`, type: `java.lang.String` Description: Set or update the user notes. parameter: notes: project notes ## Method: setPersistenceStrategy - parameter: `strategy`, type: `int` Description: This convenience routine is used to set the JDB2 [#PersistenceStrategy](#PersistenceStrategy) currently used by this project. parameter: strategy: persistence strategy value
