Modeling State in Annotation Style

To model a managed object that has states, implement a method the returns the current state, and annotate that method as @TeaGetStatus.

• Implement a method to get the state. Annotate it as @TeaGetStatus.
  The status method must return an instance of the class com.tibco.tea.agent.types.AgentObjectStatus. AgentObjectStatus is a standard format for encapsulating state within agents. It has three fields:

  state

  Required. The state name.

  desc

  Optional. An interpretive description of the state.

  uptime

  Optional. The length of time that the managed object has been in this state.

  @TeaGetStatus
  AgentObjectStatus getStatus(@KeyParam final String key) {
      AgentObjectStatus result = new AgentObjectStatus();
      ...
      return result;
      }
