Method Detail

isInstance

public boolean isInstance(Value val)

Description copied from class: Datatype

This method returns true if the specified value argument is an instance of the represented datatype; it returns false otherwise

Specified by:

isInstance in class Datatype<Bag<AV extends AttributeValue>>

Parameters:

val - value to be checked

Returns:

true iff val is an instance of this datatype

cast

public Bag<AV> cast(Value val)
             throws ClassCastException

Description copied from class: Datatype

Casts a value to the class or interface represented by this datatype.

Specified by:

cast in class Datatype<Bag<AV extends AttributeValue>>

Parameters:

val - value to be cast

Returns:

the value after casting, or null if val is null

Throws:

ClassCastException - if the value is not null and is not assignable to the type V.

getTypeParameter

public Optional<? extends Datatype<?>> getTypeParameter()

Description copied from class: Datatype

Return type parameter e.g. the bag element datatype (datatype of every element in a bag of this datatype); null if this is a primitive type (no sub-elements)

Specified by:

getTypeParameter in class Datatype<Bag<AV extends AttributeValue>>

Returns:

datatype parameter, null for primitive datatypes

newArray

public Bag<AV>[] newArray(int length)

Description copied from class: Datatype

Creates a new array with this as component type

Specified by:

newArray in class Datatype<Bag<AV extends AttributeValue>>

Parameters:

length - length of the new array

Returns:

the new array

getElementType

public Datatype<AV> getElementType()

Returns the bag element datatype (datatype of every element in a bag of this datatype). Same as getTypeParameter().

Returns:

bag element datatype
