getRequiredFiles

- Method Detail
  - getName
```
java.lang.String getName()
```
    Returns:
    
    the name of the optics
  - getInitFiles
```
java.util.List<ModelFile> getInitFiles()
```
    Returns:
    
    the ModelFiles to call for initializing this optics
  - getPostPtcUniverseFiles
```
java.util.List<ModelFile> getPostPtcUniverseFiles()
```
    Returns:
    
    a list of model files that must be called after switching to ptc
  - getOpticFileNames
```
java.lang.String[] getOpticFileNames()
```
    convenience methods to get all the relative pathnames of the required files
    
    Returns:
    
    a list of FileNames for all ModelFiles this Optic consists of
  - isOverlay
```
boolean isOverlay()
```
    Returns:
    
    true if this optics can be loaded together with another optics. false if it is a full optics definition which in most cases should override all strengths.
