Class ErrorType

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    DatabindableDatatype, XSDatatype, java.io.Serializable, org.relaxng.datatype.Datatype

    public class ErrorType
    extends BuiltinAtomicType
    A dummy datatype that can be used to recover from errors. This datatype accepts any values and any facets. The TypeIncubator class also recognizes this class and any operation on ErrorType will never cause any error and silently return another ErrorType.

        Description copied from class: XSDatatypeImpl
        converts a whitespace-processed lexical value into the corresponding value object
        Specified by:

        protected boolean checkFormat​(java.lang.String literal,

        public java.lang.String convertToLexicalValue​(java.lang.Object valueObject,
                                                      SerializationContext context)
                                               throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
        Description copied from interface: XSDatatype
        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.

        context - 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.
        Throws:
        java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the type of the given object is not the expected one. For example, this exception is thrown if you pass a BigInteger object to the "gYear" type.
      • isFacetApplicable

        public int isFacetApplicable​(java.lang.String facetName)
        Description copied from interface: XSDatatype
        returns if the specified facet is applicable to this datatype.
        Returns:
        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.
      • getBaseType

        public XSDatatype getBaseType()
        Description copied from interface: XSDatatype
        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.

      • getJavaObjectType

        public java.lang.Class getJavaObjectType()
        Description copied from interface: DatabindableDatatype
        gets the type of the objects that are created by the createJavaObject method.
