Method Detail

getName

public javax.xml.namespace.QName getName()

Description copied from interface: Property

Returns the name of the property.

In a canonical GML representation, this corresponds to the property's element name in the declaration. However, there are some GML application schemas (e.g. CityGML) that define properties using abstract element declarations and provide multiple concrete substitutable elements. In these cases, the name of a property is not equal to the name of the property type.

Specified by:

getName in interface Property

Returns:

the name of the property, never null

isNilled

public boolean isNilled()

Description copied from interface: Property

Returns whether the property is nilled (corresponds to xsi:nil in an XML representation of the property element).

Specified by:

isNilled in interface Property

Returns:

true, if the property is nilled, false otherwise

getValue

public TypedObjectNode getValue()

Description copied from interface: Property

Returns the value of this property.

Specified by:

getValue in interface Property

Returns:

the value of this property, can be null

setValue

public void setValue(TypedObjectNode value)

Description copied from interface: Property

Sets the value of this property.

Specified by:

setValue in interface Property

Parameters:

value - the value of this property, can be null

getType

public PropertyType getType()

Description copied from interface: Property

Returns the type information for this property.

Specified by:

getType in interface Property

Returns:

the type information, never null

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Description copied from interface: Property
