Interface XSSimpleTypeDefinition

All Superinterfaces:

XSObject, XSTypeDefinition

All Known Subinterfaces:

XSSimpleType

All Known Implementing Classes:

XSSimpleTypeDecl

public interface XSSimpleTypeDefinition
extends XSTypeDefinition

This interface represents the Simple Type Definition schema component. This interface provides several query operations for facet components. Users can either retrieve the defined facets as XML Schema components, using the facets and the multiValueFacets attributes; or users can separately query a facet's properties using methods such as getLexicalFacetValue, isFixedFacet, etc.

Method Detail

getVariety

short getVariety()

[variety]: one of {atomic, list, union} or absent.

getPrimitiveType

XSSimpleTypeDefinition getPrimitiveType()

If variety is atomic the primitive type definition (a built-in primitive datatype definition or the simple ur-type definition) is available, otherwise null.

getBuiltInKind

short getBuiltInKind()

Returns the closest built-in type category this type represents or derived from. For example, if this simple type is a built-in derived type integer the INTEGER_DV is returned.

getItemType

XSSimpleTypeDefinition getItemType()

If variety is list the item type definition (an atomic or union simple type definition) is available, otherwise null.

getMemberTypes

XSObjectList getMemberTypes()

If variety is union the list of member type definitions (a non-empty sequence of simple type definitions) is available, otherwise an empty XSObjectList.

getDefinedFacets

short getDefinedFacets()

[facets]: all facets defined on this type. The value is a bit combination of FACET_XXX constants of all defined facets.

isDefinedFacet

boolean isDefinedFacet(short facetName)

Convenience method. [Facets]: check whether a facet is defined on this type.

Parameters:

facetName - The name of the facet.

Returns:

True if the facet is defined, false otherwise.

getFixedFacets

short getFixedFacets()

[facets]: all defined facets for this type which are fixed.

isFixedFacet

boolean isFixedFacet(short facetName)

Convenience method. [Facets]: check whether a facet is defined and fixed on this type.

Parameters:

facetName - The name of the facet.

Returns:

True if the facet is fixed, false otherwise.

getLexicalFacetValue

java.lang.String getLexicalFacetValue(short facetName)

Convenience method. Returns a value of a single constraining facet for this simple type definition. This method must not be used to retrieve values for enumeration and pattern facets.

Parameters:

facetName - The name of the facet, i.e. FACET_LENGTH, FACET_TOTALDIGITS. To retrieve the value for a pattern or an enumeration, see enumeration and pattern.

Returns:

A value of the facet specified in facetName for this simple type definition or null.

getLexicalEnumeration

StringList getLexicalEnumeration()

A list of enumeration values if it exists, otherwise an empty StringList.

getLexicalPattern

StringList getLexicalPattern()

A list of pattern values if it exists, otherwise an empty StringList.

getFinite

boolean getFinite()

Fundamental Facet: cardinality.

getBounded

boolean getBounded()

Fundamental Facet: bounded.

getNumeric

boolean getNumeric()

Fundamental Facet: numeric.

getFacets

XSObjectList getFacets()

getMultiValueFacets

XSObjectList getMultiValueFacets()

A list of enumeration and pattern constraining facets if it exists, otherwise an empty XSObjectList.

getAnnotations

XSObjectList getAnnotations()

A sequence of [annotations] or an empty XSObjectList.
