public interface AAFSpecifiedClasses
Lists of classes implementing thoses specified for the Advanced Authoring Format (AAF). These classes are as specified in the AAF Object Specification v1.1, along with some recent additions to the meta dictionary so as to remain consistent with the C-based reference implementation.
The MAJ API is designed to be dynamically extendible at runtime by loading in implementations of extensions classes. Classes not listed in the arrays of this class are treated as extensions.
Abstract and concrete, classes and meta classes are separated out into separate lists:
abstractInterchangeable and
abstractMeta;interchangeable and meta;abstractInterchangeable and
interchangeable;meta and abstractMeta.All the classes in the lists implement MetadataObject and are
annotated with @MediaClass.
These lists can be used to bootstrap applications or to check whether a given class is as specified or an extension. The MediaEngine uses these lists to initialize an application ready to use AAF classes and data types.
