org.lsst.ccs.bus.data.Alert

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

Direct Known Subclasses:

ClusterAlert

public class Alert
extends Object
implements Serializable

Base class for all Alerts. This class provides an alertId field that is used to uniquely identify similar Alert instances: if two Alert instances have the same alertId, they are equal. Alerts are raised when abnormal situations occur, and they can be raised at a different AlertState level. Additionally the Alert class has the following field:

• description: the description of the Alert

Subsystems can either use this directly class or extend it when raising subsystem specific Alerts. When an Alert is raised a StatusAlert message will be published on the Status bus.
