_createValueback to summary
public Object _createValue(String lexicalValue, ValidationContext context)

Implements abstract com.sun.msv.datatype.xsd.XSDatatypeImpl._createValue.

Doc from com.sun.msv.datatype.xsd.XSDatatypeImpl._createValue.

converts a whitespace-processed lexical value into the corresponding value object

checkFormatback to summary
protected final boolean checkFormat(String content, ValidationContext context)

Implements abstract com.sun.msv.datatype.xsd.XSDatatypeImpl.checkFormat.

convertToLexicalValueback to summary
public String convertToLexicalValue(Object value, SerializationContext context)

Implements com.sun.msv.datatype.xsd.XSDatatype.convertToLexicalValue.

Doc from com.sun.msv.datatype.xsd.XSDatatype.convertToLexicalValue.

converts value object back to the corresponding value in the lexical space.

This method does the reverse operation of the createValue method. The returned string is not necessarily the canonical representation. Also note that the implementation may accept invalid values without throwing IllegalArgumentException. To make sure that the result is actually a valid representation, call the isValid method.

Be careful not to confuse this method with The serializeJavaObject method, which is defined in the DatabindableDatatype method.

Parameters
context:SerializationContext

Context information that will be possibly used for the conversion. Currently, this object is used only by QName, but may be extended in the future.

countLengthback to summary
public final int countLength(Object value)

Implements com.sun.msv.datatype.xsd.Discrete.countLength.

Doc from com.sun.msv.datatype.xsd.Discrete.countLength.

count the number of item in value type. Actual semantics of this method varies.

getBaseTypeback to summary
public XSDatatype getBaseType()

Implements com.sun.msv.datatype.xsd.XSDatatype.getBaseType.

Doc from com.sun.msv.datatype.xsd.XSDatatype.getBaseType.

gets the base type of this type. This method returns null if this object represents the simple ur-type.

This method is intended to capture the semantics of the base type definition property of the simple type component, but there is an important difference.

Specifically, if you derive a type D from another type B, then calling D.getBaseType() does not necessarily return B. Instead, it may return an intermediate object (that represents a facet). Calling the getBaseType method recursively will eventually return B.

getJavaObjectTypeback to summary
public Class<T> getJavaObjectType()

Implements com.sun.msv.datatype.DatabindableDatatype.getJavaObjectType.

Doc from com.sun.msv.datatype.DatabindableDatatype.getJavaObjectType.

gets the type of the objects that are created by the createJavaObject method.

isAlwaysValidback to summary
public boolean isAlwaysValid()

Overrides com.sun.msv.datatype.xsd.XSDatatypeImpl.isAlwaysValid.

Implements com.sun.msv.datatype.xsd.XSDatatype.isAlwaysValid.

Doc from com.sun.msv.datatype.xsd.XSDatatype.isAlwaysValid.

Returns true if this datatype is known to accept any string. This is just a hint that allows the client code to do certain optimization.

This method can return false even if the datatype actually accepts any string. That is, it's perfectly OK for any datatype to return false from this method.

isFacetApplicableback to summary
public final int isFacetApplicable(String facetName)

Implements com.sun.msv.datatype.xsd.XSDatatype.isFacetApplicable.

Doc from com.sun.msv.datatype.xsd.XSDatatype.isFacetApplicable.

returns if the specified facet is applicable to this datatype.

Returns:int

APPLICABLE
if the facet is applicable
FIXED
if the facet is already fixed (that is,not applicable)
NOT_ALLOWED
if the facet is not applicable to this datatype at all. this value is also returned for unknown facets.
