Class DatatypeFactory

java.lang.Object
com.sun.msv.datatype.xsd.DatatypeFactory

public class DatatypeFactory extends Object
Datatype object factory.

Applications should use this class to get and derive DataType objects. All methods are static.

Derivation by restriction should be done by using TypeIncubator.

  • Field Details

    • builtinType

      private static final Map builtinType
      a map that contains built in types. To speed up the boot process, only a handful types are added at the first time.

    • deriveByList

      public static XSDatatype deriveByList(String nsUri, String newTypeName, XSDatatype itemType) throws org.relaxng.datatype.DatatypeException
      derives a new type by list. See http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2#derivation-by-list for what "derivation by list" means.
      Parameters:
      nsUri - ,newTypeName (URI,local) pair as the name of the new type. it can be set to null for an anonymous type.
      itemType - Type of the list item. It must be an atom type which is implemented in this package or derived from types implemented in this package. You cannot use your own DataType implementation here.
      Returns:
      always return non-null value. If error occurs, then an exception will be thrown.
      Throws:
      org.relaxng.datatype.DatatypeException - this exception is thrown when the derivation is illegal. For example, when you try to derive a type from non-atom type.

      public static XSDatatype deriveByList(String newTypeName, XSDatatype itemType) throws org.relaxng.datatype.DatatypeException
      Deprecated.
      Throws:
      org.relaxng.datatype.DatatypeException
    • deriveByUnion

      public static XSDatatype deriveByUnion(String nsUri, String newTypeName, XSDatatype[] memberTypes) throws org.relaxng.datatype.DatatypeException
      derives a new type by union. See http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2#derivation-by-union for what "derivation by union" means.
      Parameters:
      newTypeName - name of the new type. it can be set to null to indicate an anonymous type.
      memberTypes - Types of the union member. It can be any type that implements DataType.
      Throws:
      org.relaxng.datatype.DatatypeException - this exception is thrown when the derivation is illegal.

    • getTypeByName

      public static XSDatatype getTypeByName(String dataTypeName) throws org.relaxng.datatype.DatatypeException
      obtain a built-in DataType object by its name. For example, you can pass somethings like "token", "gYear", etc.
      Returns:
      A non-null valid datatype object.
      Throws:
      org.relaxng.datatype.DatatypeException - If the type name is undefined.
