      public BusinessEntity()
      Default constructor. Avoid using the default constructor for validation. It does not validate required fields. Instead, use the required fields constructor to perform validation.
    • BusinessEntity

      public BusinessEntity(String businessKey, String name)
      Construct the object with required fields. Publishing several names (e.g., for romanization purposes) is supported. To indicate the language that the names are expressed in, a unique xml:lang value is associated with each name. Only one name (default language) can omit its unique language identifier. Other names passed without an xml:lang value associated, are assigned the default language code of the registering party. The default language code is established at the time the publishing credentials are established with an individual Operator Site. If no default language is provisioned at the time a publisher signs up, the operator can adopt an appropriate default language code.
      Parameters:
      businessKey - String
      name - String
