source: trunk/gli/src/org/greenstone/gatherer/cdm/Level.java@ 11130

Last change on this file since 11130 was 9996, checked in by kjdon, 19 years ago

removed the text class variable - we no longer cache the string representation - it can get set wrong sometimes. changed getName to get the metadata name, and added getLevel to return the level string. comparesTo changed to just look at the level info, not the full string - we consider two levels the same if they have the same level, regardless of the meta name
