Constructor Detail

MarshalFramework.InternalXMLClassDescriptor

protected MarshalFramework.InternalXMLClassDescriptor(XMLClassDescriptor classDesc)

Creates a new InternalXMLClassDescriptor for the given XMLClassDescriptor.

Method Detail

getClassDescriptor

public XMLClassDescriptor getClassDescriptor()

Returns the XMLClassDescriptor that this InternalXMLClassDescriptor wraps.

Returns:

the XMLClassDescriptor

getAttributeDescriptors

public XMLFieldDescriptor[] getAttributeDescriptors()

Returns the set of XMLFieldDescriptors for all members that should be marshalled as XML attributes. This includes namespace nodes.

Specified by:

getAttributeDescriptors in interface XMLClassDescriptor

Returns:

an array of XMLFieldDescriptors for all members that should be marshalled as XML attributes.

getContentDescriptor

public XMLFieldDescriptor getContentDescriptor()

Returns the XMLFieldDescriptor for the member that should be marshalled as text content.

Specified by:

getContentDescriptor in interface XMLClassDescriptor

Returns:

the XMLFieldDescriptor for the member that should be marshalled as text content.

getFieldDescriptor

public XMLFieldDescriptor getFieldDescriptor(java.lang.String name,
                                             java.lang.String namespace,
                                             NodeType nodeType)

Returns the XML field descriptor matching the given xml name and nodeType. If NodeType is null, then either an AttributeDescriptor, or ElementDescriptor may be returned. Null is returned if no matching descriptor is available.

Specified by:

getFieldDescriptor in interface XMLClassDescriptor

Parameters:

name - the xml name to match against

namespace - the xml namespace to match

nodeType - the NodeType to match against, or null if the node type is not known.

Returns:

the matching descriptor, or null if no matching descriptor is available.

getElementDescriptors

public XMLFieldDescriptor[] getElementDescriptors()

Returns the set of XMLFieldDescriptors for all members that should be marshalled as XML elements.

Specified by:

getElementDescriptors in interface XMLClassDescriptor

Returns:

an array of XMLFieldDescriptors for all members that should be marshalled as XML elements.

getNameSpacePrefix

public java.lang.String getNameSpacePrefix()

Description copied from interface: XMLClassDescriptor

Returns the namespace prefix to use when marshalling as XML.

Specified by:

getNameSpacePrefix in interface XMLClassDescriptor

Returns:

the namespace prefix to use when marshalling as XML.

getNameSpaceURI

public java.lang.String getNameSpaceURI()

Description copied from interface: XMLClassDescriptor

Returns the namespace URI used when marshalling and unmarshalling as XML.

Specified by:

getNameSpaceURI in interface XMLClassDescriptor

Returns:

the namespace URI used when marshalling and unmarshalling as XML.

getValidator

public TypeValidator getValidator()

Returns a specific validator for the class described by this ClassDescriptor. A null value may be returned if no specific validator exists.

Specified by:

getValidator in interface XMLClassDescriptor

Returns:

the type validator for the class described by this ClassDescriptor.

getXMLName

public java.lang.String getXMLName()

Returns the XML Name for the Class being described.

Specified by:

getXMLName in interface XMLClassDescriptor

Returns:

the XML name.

introspected

public boolean introspected()

Returns true if the wrapped ClassDescriptor was created by introspection.

Returns:

true if the wrapped ClassDescriptor was created by introspection.

canAccept

public boolean canAccept(java.lang.String name,
                         java.lang.String namespace,
                         java.lang.Object object)

Description copied from interface: XMLClassDescriptor

Returns true if the given object, represented by this XMLClassDescriptor, can accept a value for the member associated with the given xml name and namespace.

An XMLClassDescriptor can accept a value for a field if it contains a descriptor that matches the given xml name and namespace and if the given object can hold this field (i.e a value is not already set for this field).

Specified by:

canAccept in interface XMLClassDescriptor

Parameters:

name - the xml name of the field to check

namespace - the namespace uri

object - the object instance represented by this XMLCLassDescriptor

Returns:

true if the given object represented by this XMLClassDescriptor can accept a member whose name is given.
