Interface AtomicType

    • Method Detail

      • validate

        ValidationFailure validate​(AtomicValue primValue,
                                   java.lang.CharSequence lexicalValue,
                                   NameChecker checker)
        Validate that a primitive atomic value is a valid instance of a type derived from the same primitive type.
        Parameters:
        primValue - the value in the value space of the primitive type.
        lexicalValue - the value in the lexical space. If null, the string value of primValue is used. This value is checked against the pattern facet (if any)
        checker - Used for checking names against XML 1.0 or XML 1.1 rules
        Returns:
        null if the value is valid; otherwise, a ValidationFailure object indicating the nature of the error.
        Throws:
        java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException - in the case of an external object type
      • isOrdered

        boolean isOrdered()
        Determine whether the atomic type is ordered, that is, whether less-than and greater-than comparisons are permitted
        Returns:
        true if ordering operations are permitted
      • isAbstract

        boolean isAbstract()
        Determine whether the type is abstract, that is, whether it cannot have instances that are not also instances of some concrete subtype
      • isPrimitiveType

        boolean isPrimitiveType()
        Determine whether the atomic type is a primitive type. The primitive types are the 19 primitive types of XML Schema, plus xs:integer, xs:dayTimeDuration and xs:yearMonthDuration; xs:untypedAtomic; and all supertypes of these (xs:anyAtomicType, xs:numeric, ...)
        Returns:
        true if the type is considered primitive under the above rules
      • isBuiltInType

        boolean isBuiltInType()
        Determine whether the atomic type is a built-in type. The built-in atomic types are the 41 atomic types defined in XML Schema, plus xs:dayTimeDuration and xs:yearMonthDuration, xs:untypedAtomic, and all supertypes of these (xs:anyAtomicType, xs:numeric, ...)
        Specified by:
        isBuiltInType in interface SimpleType
        Returns:
        true if this is a built-in type
