Enum PrimitiveType

java.lang.Object
  java.lang.Enum<PrimitiveType>
      org.deegree.commons.types.PrimitiveType

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<PrimitiveType>

public enum PrimitiveType
extends Enum<PrimitiveType>

Primitive type system for object properties (e.g. for Feature instances).

Based on XML schema types, but stripped down to leave out any distinctions that are not necessary in the feature model.

Enum Constant Summary

BOOLEAN
Property value is of class Boolean.

DATE
Property value is of class Date.

DATE_TIME
Property value is of class DateTime.

DECIMAL
Property value is of class BigDecimal.

DOUBLE
Property value is of class Double (needed because BigDecimal cannot express "NaN", "-INF" and "INF"), which are required by xs:double / xs:float.

INTEGER
Property value is of class BigInteger.

STRING
Property value is of class String.

TIME
Property value is of class Time.

Method Summary

static PrimitiveType	determinePrimitiveType(Object value) Returns the PrimitiveType for the given value.

Method Detail

values

public static PrimitiveType[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (PrimitiveType c : PrimitiveType.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static PrimitiveType valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

getValueClass

public Class<?> getValueClass()

Returns the class that primitive values of this type must have.

Returns:

the corresponding class for values

determinePrimitiveType

public static PrimitiveType determinePrimitiveType(Object value)
                                            throws IllegalArgumentException

Returns the PrimitiveType for the given value.

Parameters:

value -

Returns:

corresponding PrimitiveType, never null

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException
