Returns the Attributes for the specified entry name.
This method is defined as:
return (Attributes)getEntries().get(name)
Though
null
is a valid
name
, when
getAttributes(null)
is invoked on a
Manifest
obtained from a jar file,
null
will be returned. While jar
files themselves do not allow
null
-named attributes, it is
possible to invoke
Manifest.getEntries()
on a
Manifest
, and
on that result, invoke
put
with a null key and an
arbitrary value. Subsequent invocations of
getAttributes(null)
will return the just-
put
value.
Note that this method does not return the manifest's main attributes;
see Manifest.getMainAttributes()
.
Returns:
the Attributes for the specified entry name
Parameters:
- name - entry name
