Constructor Detail

SDOTypeType

public SDOTypeType(SDOTypeHelper sdoTypeHelper)
Method Detail

getAliasNames

public java.util.List getAliasNames()
Description copied from interface: Type
Return a list of alias names for this Type.

Specified by:
getAliasNames in interface Type
Overrides:
getAliasNames in class SDOType
Returns:
a list of alias names for this Type.

getBaseTypes

public java.util.List getBaseTypes()
Description copied from interface: Type
Returns the List of base Types for this Type. The List is empty if there are no base Types. XSD , , and Java extends keyword are mapped to this list.

Specified by:
getBaseTypes in interface Type
Overrides:
getBaseTypes in class SDOType
Returns:
the List of base Types for this Type.

getName

public java.lang.String getName()
Description copied from interface: Type
Returns the name of the type.

Specified by:
getName in interface Type
Overrides:
getName in class SDOType
Returns:
the type name.

getURI

public java.lang.String getURI()
Description copied from interface: Type
Returns the namespace URI of the type.

Specified by:
getURI in interface Type
Overrides:
getURI in class SDOType
Returns:
the namespace URI.

isAbstract

public boolean isAbstract()
Description copied from interface: Type
Indicates if this Type is abstract. If true, this Type cannot be instantiated. Abstract types cannot be used in DataObject or DataFactory create methods.

Specified by:
isAbstract in interface Type
Overrides:
isAbstract in class SDOType
Returns:
true if this Type is abstract.

isDataType

public boolean isDataType()
Description copied from interface: Type
Indicates if this Type specifies DataTypes (true) or DataObjects (false). When false, any object that is an instance of this type also implements the DataObject interface. True for simple types such as Strings and numbers. For any object:
   isInstance(object) && !isDataType() implies
   DataObject.class.isInstance(object) returns true. 
 

Specified by:
isDataType in interface Type
Overrides:
isDataType in class SDOType
Returns:
true if Type specifies DataTypes, false for DataObjects.

isOpen

public boolean isOpen()
Description copied from interface: Type
Indicates if this Type allows any form of open content. If false, dataObject.getInstanceProperties() must be the same as dataObject.getType().getProperties() for any DataObject dataObject of this Type.

Specified by:
isOpen in interface Type
Overrides:
isOpen in class SDOType
Returns:
true if this Type allows open content.

isSequenced

public boolean isSequenced()
Description copied from interface: Type
Indicates if this Type specifies Sequenced DataObjects. Sequenced DataObjects are used when the order of values between Properties must be preserved. When true, a DataObject will return a Sequence. For example,
  Sequence elements = dataObject.getSequence();
 

Specified by:
isSequenced in interface Type
Overrides:
isSequenced in class SDOType
Returns:
true if this Type specifies Sequenced DataObjects.

isTypeType

public boolean isTypeType()
Overrides:
isTypeType in class SDOType

initializeMappings

public void initializeMappings()

isInitialized

public boolean isInitialized()
