      • BaseDatatype

        public BaseDatatype​(java.lang.String uri)
        Constructor.
        Parameters:
        uri - the URI label to use for this datatype
    • Method Detail

      • getURI

        public java.lang.String getURI()
        Return the URI which is the label for this datatype
        Specified by:
        getURI in interface RDFDatatype
      • unparse

        public java.lang.String unparse​(java.lang.Object value)
        Convert a value of this datatype out to lexical form.
        Specified by:
        unparse in interface RDFDatatype
      • isValid

        public boolean isValid​(java.lang.String lexicalForm)
        Test whether the given string is a legal lexical form of this datatype.
        Specified by:
        isValid in interface RDFDatatype
      • isValidLiteral

        public boolean isValidLiteral​(LiteralLabel lit)
        Test whether the given LiteralLabel is a valid instance of this datatype. This takes into account typing information as well as lexical form - for example an xsd:string is never considered valid as an xsd:integer (even if it is lexically legal like "1").
        Specified by:
        isValidLiteral in interface RDFDatatype
      • isValidValue

        public boolean isValidValue​(java.lang.Object valueForm)
        Test whether the given object is a legal value form of this datatype.
        Specified by:
        isValidValue in interface RDFDatatype
      • isEqual

        public boolean isEqual​(LiteralLabel litLabel1,
                               LiteralLabel litLabel2)
        Compares two instances of values of the given datatype. This default requires value and datatype equality.
        Specified by:
        isEqual in interface RDFDatatype
      • getHashCode

        public int getHashCode​(LiteralLabel lit)
        Default implementation of getHashCode() delegates to the default from the literal label.
        Specified by:
        getHashCode in interface RDFDatatype
      • langTagCompatible

        public boolean langTagCompatible​(LiteralLabel value1,
                                         LiteralLabel value2)
        Helper function to compare language tag values
      • getJavaClass

        public java.lang.Class<?> getJavaClass()
        Returns the java class which is used to represent value instances of this datatype.
        Specified by:
        getJavaClass in interface RDFDatatype
      • cannonicalise

        public java.lang.Object cannonicalise​(java.lang.Object value)
        Cannonicalise a java Object value to a normal form. Primarily used in cases such as xsd:integer to reduce the Java object representation to the narrowest of the Number subclasses to ensure that indexing of typed literals works.
        Specified by:
        cannonicalise in interface RDFDatatype
      • extendedTypeDefinition

        public java.lang.Object extendedTypeDefinition()
        Returns an object giving more details on the datatype. This is type system dependent. In the case of XSD types this will be an instance of org.apache.xerces.impl.xs.psvi.XSTypeDefinition.
        Specified by:
        extendedTypeDefinition in interface RDFDatatype
      • normalizeSubType

        public RDFDatatype normalizeSubType​(java.lang.Object value,
                                            RDFDatatype dt)
        Normalization. If the value is narrower than the current data type (e.g. value is xsd:date but the time is xsd:datetime) returns the narrower type for the literal. If the type is narrower than the value then it may normalize the value (e.g. set the mask of an XSDDateTime) Currently only used to narrow gener XSDDateTime objects to the minimal XSD date/time type.
        Specified by:
        normalizeSubType in interface RDFDatatype
        Parameters:
        value - the current object value
        dt - the currently set data type
        Returns:
        a narrower version of the datatype based on the actual value range
      • toString

        public java.lang.String toString()
        Display format
        Overrides:
        toString in class java.lang.Object
