All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`Collection<Class<? extends Behaviour>>`	`behaviours()`	Returns all pipeline-specific behaviour interfaces defined by this configuration.
`Optional<InputStream>`	`extension(PiPipeconf.ExtensionType type)`	Returns, if present, an input stream pointing at the beginning of a file representing a device-specific or control protocol-specific extension of this configuration.
`long`	`fingerprint()`	Returns the fingerprint of pipeconf.
`boolean`	`hasBehaviour(Class<? extends Behaviour> behaviourClass)`	Indicates whether or not the pipeconf supports the specified class of behaviour.
`PiPipeconfId`	`id()`	Returns the identifier of this pipeline configuration.
`Optional<Class<? extends Behaviour>>`	`implementation(Class<? extends Behaviour> behaviour)`	Returns the implementation class for the given behaviour, if present.
`PiPipelineModel`	`pipelineModel()`	Returns the pipeline model.

- Method Detail
  - id
```
PiPipeconfId id()
```
    Returns the identifier of this pipeline configuration.
    
    Returns:
    
    a identifier
  - pipelineModel
```
PiPipelineModel pipelineModel()
```
    Returns the pipeline model.
    
    Returns:
    
    a pipeline model
  - fingerprint
```
long fingerprint()
```
    Returns the fingerprint of pipeconf.
    
    Returns:
    
    a fingerprint
  - behaviours
```
Collection<Class<? extends Behaviour>> behaviours()
```
    Returns all pipeline-specific behaviour interfaces defined by this configuration.
    
    Returns:
    
    a collection of behaviours
  - implementation
```
Optional<Class<? extends Behaviour>> implementation(Class<? extends Behaviour> behaviour)
```
    Returns the implementation class for the given behaviour, if present.
    
    Parameters:
    
    behaviour - behaviour interface
    
    Returns:
    
    implementation class
  - hasBehaviour
```
boolean hasBehaviour(Class<? extends Behaviour> behaviourClass)
```
    Indicates whether or not the pipeconf supports the specified class of behaviour.
    
    Parameters:
    
    behaviourClass - behaviour class
    
    Returns:
    
    true if behaviour is supported
  - extension
```
Optional<InputStream> extension(PiPipeconf.ExtensionType type)
```
    Returns, if present, an input stream pointing at the beginning of a file representing a device-specific or control protocol-specific extension of this configuration. For example, if requesting a target-specific P4 binary, this will return the same bytes produced by the P4 compiler.
    
    Parameters:
    
    type - extension type
    
    Returns:
    
    extension input stream
