Workflow Attribute APIs

The WFAttribute Java class contains descriptive information for an item or activity attribute, including the internal name of the attribute, attribute value, attribute data type, format information, and default value type. The attribute value is stored as an Object type. This class also contains methods for accessing the attribute information, which can be called by a Java application or the Java procedure for an external Java function activity.

The WFAttribute class is stored in the oracle.apps.fnd.wf Java package. The following list shows the APIs available in this class.

Attention: Java is case-sensitive and all Java method names, except the constructor method names, begin with a lower case letter to follow Java naming conventions.
