Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
Object	getActualVC() Deprecated. Use getValueConstraintValue().getActualValue() instead
short	getActualVCType() Deprecated. Use getValueConstraintValue().getActualValueType() instead
XSObjectList	getAnnotations() A sequence of [annotations] or an empty XSObjectList.
XSAttributeDeclaration	getAttrDeclaration() [attribute declaration]: provides the attribute declaration itself, which will in turn determine the simple type definition used.
short	getConstraintType() Value Constraint: one of default, fixed, or none.
String	getConstraintValue() Deprecated. Use getValueConstraintValue().getNormalizedValue() instead
ShortList	getItemValueTypes() Deprecated. Use getValueConstraintValue().getListValueTypes() instead
boolean	getRequired() [required]: determines whether this use of an attribute declaration requires an appropriate attribute information item to be present, or merely allows it.
XSValue	getValueConstraintValue() The actual value of the default or fixed value constraint.

Method Detail

getRequired

boolean getRequired()

[required]: determines whether this use of an attribute declaration requires an appropriate attribute information item to be present, or merely allows it.

getAttrDeclaration

XSAttributeDeclaration getAttrDeclaration()

[attribute declaration]: provides the attribute declaration itself, which will in turn determine the simple type definition used.

getConstraintType

short getConstraintType()

Value Constraint: one of default, fixed, or none.

getConstraintValue

String getConstraintValue()

Deprecated. Use getValueConstraintValue().getNormalizedValue() instead

Value Constraint: The constraint value, otherwise null.

getActualVC

Object getActualVC()
            throws XSException

Deprecated. Use getValueConstraintValue().getActualValue() instead

Value Constraint: Binding specific actual constraint value or null if the value is in error or there is no value constraint.

Throws:

XSException - NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR: Raised if the implementation does not support this method.

getActualVCType

short getActualVCType()
               throws XSException

Deprecated. Use getValueConstraintValue().getActualValueType() instead

The actual constraint value built-in datatype, e.g. STRING_DT, SHORT_DT. If the type definition of this value is a list type definition, this method returns LIST_DT. If the type definition of this value is a list type definition whose item type is a union type definition, this method returns LISTOFUNION_DT. To query the actual constraint value of the list or list of union type definitions use itemValueTypes. If the actualNormalizedValue is null, this method returns UNAVAILABLE_DT.

Throws:

XSException - NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR: Raised if the implementation does not support this method.

getItemValueTypes

ShortList getItemValueTypes()
                     throws XSException

Deprecated. Use getValueConstraintValue().getListValueTypes() instead

In the case the actual constraint value represents a list, i.e. the actualValueType is LIST_DT, the returned array consists of one type kind which represents the itemType. If the actual constraint value represents a list type definition whose item type is a union type definition, i.e. LISTOFUNION_DT, for each actual constraint value in the list the array contains the corresponding memberType kind. For examples, see ItemPSVI.itemValueTypes.

Throws:

XSException - NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR: Raised if the implementation does not support this method.

getValueConstraintValue

XSValue getValueConstraintValue()

The actual value of the default or fixed value constraint.

getAnnotations

XSObjectList getAnnotations()

A sequence of [annotations] or an empty XSObjectList.
