NAME

JMX::Jmx4Perl::Alias::Object - Internal object representing a concrete alias

DESCRIPTION

Simple object which describes an alias. It knows about the following read-only methods

$alias->alias(): alias name in uppercase form (e.g. "MEMORY_HEAP_USED")
$alias->name(): alias name in lowercase format (e.g. "memory:heap:used")
$alias->description(): short description of the alias
$alias->default(): default values for an alias, which can be overwritten by a specific JMX::Jmx4Perl::Product::BaseHandler. This is an arrayref with two values: The MBean's name and the attribute or operation name.
$alias->type(): Either "attribute" or "operation", depending on what kind of MBean part the alias stands for.

Additional, the "", "==" and "!=" operators are overloaded to naturally compare and stringify alias values.
