public interface ClassInfo<T,C> extends MaybeElement<T,C>
All the JAXB annotations are already reflected to the model so that the caller doesn't have to worry about them. For this reason, you cannot access annotations on properties.
A JAXB-bound class always have at least one representation (called "type representation"),but it can optionally have another representation ("element representation").
In the type representaion, a class is represented as a set of attributes and (elements or values). You can inspect the details of those attributes/elements/values by getProperties. This representation corresponds to a complex/simple type in XML Schema. You can obtain the schema type name by ClassInfo.
If a class has an element representation, ClassInfo returns true. This representation is mostly similar to the type representation except that the whoe attributes/elements/values are wrapped into one element. You can obtain the name of this element through ClassInfo.
Method Summary | |
---|---|
boolean | declaresAttributeWildcard()
Returns true iff this class declares a wildcard attribute. |
ClassInfo<T,C> | getBaseClass()
Obtains the information about the base class.
|
C | getClazz()
Gets the declaration this object is wrapping. |
String | getName()
Gets the fully-qualified name of the class. |
List<? extends PropertyInfo<T,C>> | getProperties()
Returns all the properties newly declared in this class.
|
PropertyInfo<T,C> | getProperty(String name)
Gets the property that has the specified name.
|
boolean | hasAttributeWildcard()
Returns true if this bean class has an attribute wildcard.
|
boolean | hasProperties()
If the class has properties, return true. |
boolean | hasSubClasses()
True if there's a known sub-type of this class in TypeInfoSet. |
boolean | hasValueProperty()
Returns true if this class or its ancestor has XmlValue
property. |
boolean | inheritsAttributeWildcard()
Returns true iff this class inherits a wildcard attribute
from its ancestor classes. |
boolean | isAbstract()
If this class is abstract and thus shall never be directly instanciated. |
boolean | isFinal()
If this class is marked as final and no further extension/restriction is allowed. |
boolean | isOrdered()
Returns true if the properties of this class is ordered in XML.
|
Returns: null if this info extends from Object.
This excludes properties defined in the super class.
If the properties are ordered
,
it will be returned in the order that appear in XML.
Otherwise it will be returned in no particular order.
Properties marked with XmlTransient will not show up in this list. As far as JAXB is concerned, they are considered non-existent.
Returns: always non-null, but can be empty.
This is just a convenience method for:
for( PropertyInfo p : getProperties() ) { if(p.getName().equals(name)) return p; } return null;
Returns: null if the property was not found.
See Also: getName
This is true if the class declares an attribute wildcard, or it is inherited from its super classes.
See Also: inheritsAttributeWildcard
In RELAX NG context, ordered properties mean <group> and unordered properties mean <interleave>.
