public interface TypeUse
Information about how another type is referenced.In practice it is often easier to use
CTypeInfo
instead ofNType
, so this interface definesgetInfo()

Method Detail
-
isCollection
boolean isCollection()
If the use can hold multiple values of the specified type.
-
getAdapterUse
CAdapter getAdapterUse()
If this type use is adapting the type, returns the adapter. Otherwise return null.
-
getInfo
CNonElement getInfo()
Individual item type.

idUse
ID idUse()
Whether the referenced type (individual item type in case of collection) is ID/IDREF.ID is a property of a relationship. When a bean Foo has an ID property called 'bar' whose type is String, Foo isn't an ID, String isn't an ID, but this relationship is an ID (in the sense that Foo uses this String as an ID.)
The same thing can be said with IDREF. When Foo refers to Bar by means of IDREF, neither Foo nor Bar is IDREF.
That's why we have this method in .
-
getExpectedMimeType
jakarta.activation.MimeType getExpectedMimeType()
A can have an associated MIME type.
-
createConstant
JExpression createConstant(Outline outline, XmlString lexical)
Creates a constant for the given lexical value.For example, to create a constant 1 for
xs:int
, you'd do:CBuiltinLeafInfo.INT.createConstant( codeModel, "1", null );
This method is invoked at the backend as a part of the code generation process.
- Returns:
- null if the constant cannot be created for this (such as when it's a collection)
- Throws:
IllegalStateException
- if the type isn't bound to a text in XML.
