Method Detail
-
isContainer
public boolean isContainer()
Description copied from class:NodePointer
If true, this node is auxiliary and can only be used as an intermediate in the chain of pointers.- Overrides:
isContainer
in classNodePointer
- Returns:
- boolean
-
getName
public QName getName()
Description copied from class:NodePointer
Returns the name of this node. Can be null.- Specified by:
getName
in classNodePointer
- Returns:
- QName
-
getBaseValue
public java.lang.Object getBaseValue()
Description copied from class:NodePointer
Returns the value represented by the pointer before indexing. So, if the node represents an element of a collection, this method returns the collection itself.- Specified by:
getBaseValue
in classNodePointer
- Returns:
- Object value
-
isLeaf
public boolean isLeaf()
Description copied from class:NodePointer
If true, this node does not have children- Specified by:
isLeaf
in classNodePointer
- Returns:
- boolean
-
isCollection
public boolean isCollection()
Description copied from class:NodePointer
Returnstrue
if the value of the pointer is an array or a Collection.- Specified by:
isCollection
in classNodePointer
- Returns:
- boolean
-
getImmediateNode
public java.lang.Object getImmediateNode()
Description copied from class:NodePointer
Returns the object the pointer points to; does not convert it to a "canonical" type.- Specified by:
getImmediateNode
in classNodePointer
- Returns:
- Object node
-
setValue
public void setValue(java.lang.Object value)
Description copied from class:NodePointer
Converts the value to the required type and changes the corresponding object to that value.- Specified by:
setValue
in interfacePointer
- Specified by:
setValue
in classNodePointer
- Parameters:
value
- the value to set
-
isActual
public boolean isActual()
Description copied from class:NodePointer
An actual pointer points to an existing part of an object graph, even if it is null. A non-actual pointer represents a part that does not exist at all. For instance consider the pointer "/address/street". If both address and street are not null, the pointer is actual. If address is not null, but street is null, the pointer is still actual. If address is null, the pointer is not actual. (In JavaBeans) if address is not a property of the root bean, a Pointer for this path cannot be obtained at all - actual or otherwise.- Overrides:
isActual
in classNodePointer
- Returns:
- boolean
-
setIndex
public void setIndex(int index)
Description copied from class:NodePointer
Set the index of this NodePointer.- Overrides:
setIndex
in classNodePointer
- Parameters:
index
- int
-
getImmediateValuePointer
public NodePointer getImmediateValuePointer()
- Overrides:
getImmediateValuePointer
in classNodePointer
- Returns:
- NodePointer is either
this
or a pointer for the immediately contained value. - See Also:
NodePointer.getValuePointer()
-
getLength
public int getLength()
Description copied from class:NodePointer
If the pointer represents a collection (or collection element), returns the length of the collection. Otherwise returns 1 (even if the value is null).- Specified by:
getLength
in classNodePointer
- Returns:
- int
-
