Interface SchemaFacetEnumeration

All Superinterfaces:

SchemaFacet

All Known Subinterfaces:

SchemaFacetTableRef

public interface SchemaFacetEnumeration
extends SchemaFacet

This interface represents enumeration facets associated with a node. The general definition of an enumeration facet is that it constrains the possible values to a specified set of values. It can be:

• a foreign key constraint (osd:tableRef);
• a static enumeration defined by the standard XML Schema facet xs:enumeration;
• a dynamic enumeration defined by the extended facet osd:enumeration;
• an enumeration constraint defined in a Java class;
• a static nomenclature defined by the extended facet osd:nomenclature (deprecated);
• a dynamic nomenclature defined by the extended facet osd:nomenclature osd:path="pathToNomenclature" (deprecated);
• a nomenclature constraint defined in a Java class (deprecated);
• a osd:FacetOResource constraint.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
boolean	containsValue(Object aValue, ValueContext aValueContext) Returns true if the current enumeration or nomenclature contains the given value.
SchemaNode	getEnumerationNode() If this facet is dynamic, returns the node whose value is a List that contains the enumeration.
<T> Nomenclature<T>	getNomenclature() Returns the nomenclature defined in the data model.
Path	getPathToNomenclature() If this facet is dynamic, returns the path defined in the data model.
Path	getPathToValues() Returns the path defined in the data model, if this facet is dynamic.
<T> List<T>	getValues() Returns the values of this enumeration if it is statically defined in the data model.

Method Detail

getValues

<T> List<T> getValues()

Returns the values of this enumeration if it is statically defined in the data model. Returns null if this enumeration is dynamic or is a SchemaFacetTableRef.

getPathToValues

Path getPathToValues()

Returns the path defined in the data model, if this facet is dynamic. Returns null if this enumeration:

• is static,
• is a foreign key constraint,
• defines a java class.

getEnumerationNode

SchemaNode getEnumerationNode()

If this facet is dynamic, returns the node whose value is a List that contains the enumeration. Returns null if this enumeration:

• is static,
• is a foreign key constraint,
• defines a Java class.

getNomenclature

<T> Nomenclature<T> getNomenclature()

Returns the nomenclature defined in the data model. Returns null if this enumeration is dynamic or is not a nomenclature.

SchemaFacet.isEnumerationNomenclature(), Nomenclature

getPathToNomenclature

Path getPathToNomenclature()

If this facet is dynamic, returns the path defined in the data model. Returns null if this enumeration:

• is not a nomenclature,
• is a static nomenclature,
• defines a Java class.

containsValue

boolean containsValue(Object aValue,
                      ValueContext aValueContext)

Returns true if the current enumeration or nomenclature contains the given value.
