Field Summary

Fields

Modifier and Type	Field	Description
static final short	COMPLEX_TYPE	The object describes a complex type.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
boolean	derivedFrom(String namespace, String name, short derivationMethod)	Convenience method which checks if this type is derived from the given ancestor type.
boolean	derivedFromType(XSTypeDefinition ancestorType, short derivationMethod)	Convenience method which checks if this type is derived from the given ancestorType.

Field Details

COMPLEX_TYPE

static final short COMPLEX_TYPE

The object describes a complex type.

See Also:

• Constant Field Values

SIMPLE_TYPE

static final short SIMPLE_TYPE

The object describes a simple type.

See Also:

• Constant Field Values

Method Details

getTypeCategory

short getTypeCategory()

Return whether this type definition is a simple type or complex type.

getBaseType

XSTypeDefinition getBaseType()

{base type definition}: either a simple type definition or a complex type definition.

isFinal

boolean isFinal(short restriction)

{final}. For a complex type definition it is a subset of {extension, restriction}. For a simple type definition it is a subset of {extension, list, restriction, union}.

Parameters:

restriction - Extension, restriction, list, union constants (defined in XSConstants).

Returns:

True if restriction is in the final set, otherwise false.

getFinal

short getFinal()

For complex types the returned value is a bit combination of the subset of {DERIVATION_EXTENSION, DERIVATION_RESTRICTION} corresponding to final set of this type or DERIVATION_NONE. For simple types the returned value is a bit combination of the subset of { DERIVATION_RESTRICTION, DERIVATION_EXTENSION, DERIVATION_UNION, DERIVATION_LIST } corresponding to final set of this type or DERIVATION_NONE.

getAnonymous

boolean getAnonymous()

Convenience attribute. A boolean that specifies if the type definition is anonymous.

derivedFromType

boolean derivedFromType(XSTypeDefinition ancestorType,
 short derivationMethod)

Convenience method which checks if this type is derived from the given ancestorType.

Parameters:

ancestorType - An ancestor type definition.

derivationMethod - A bit combination representing a subset of { DERIVATION_RESTRICTION, DERIVATION_EXTENSION, DERIVATION_UNION, DERIVATION_LIST }.

Returns:

True if this type is derived from ancestorType using only derivation methods from the derivationMethod .

derivedFrom

boolean derivedFrom(String namespace,
 String name,
 short derivationMethod)

Convenience method which checks if this type is derived from the given ancestor type.

Parameters:

namespace - An ancestor type namespace.

name - An ancestor type name.

derivationMethod - A bit combination representing a subset of { DERIVATION_RESTRICTION, DERIVATION_EXTENSION, DERIVATION_UNION, DERIVATION_LIST }.

Returns:

True if this type is derived from ancestorType using only derivation methods from the derivationMethod .
