Interface MappingPropertyDatatypeSet

All Superinterfaces:

DatatypeSet, OWBNamedObject

public interface MappingPropertyDatatypeSet

extends DatatypeSet

MappingPropertyDatatypeSet contains the definitions of all valid dataypes that can be assumed by mapping property values. The mapping property management always returns property values in the form of Object. Application programmers can use the Domain instance that is associated with the property key to find out the type of the property value.

This public interface provides a list of datatype names in the form of Java constants. The name of the constants follows this format: SOMETYPE_TYPENAME. For example BOOLEAN_TYPENAME. The value assigned to the constants are the fully qualified Java class name of the data type class. For example java.lang.Boolean.

Or the application programmer can directly use the pre-instantiated data type instances, also provided by this public interface. This public interface defines a list of constants whose values are pre-instantiated static data type instances. The format of the constant names is SOMETYPE_DATATYPE. For example BOOLEAN_DATATYPE is an instance of Datatype representing Boolean data type.

In summary, application programmers can obtain datatype instance in two ways.

One is through accessing the constant such as BOOLEAN_DATATYPE.

Another is by calling DatatypeSetManager.getMappingPropertyDatatypeSet().findDatatype([TYPENAME]). where [TYPENAME] is the name defined in this public interface.
