public class PrimitiveString

extends SOMElementalType

The string datatype represents character strings in XML. The value space of string is the set of finite-length sequences of characters (as defined in [XML 1.0 Recommendation (Second Edition)]) that match the Char production from [XML 1.0 Recommendation (Second Edition)]. A character is an atomic unit of communication; it is not further specified except to note that every character has a corresponding Universal Code Set code point ([ISO 10646], [Unicode] and [Unicode3]), which is an integer.

string has the following constraining facets:

• length
• minLength
• maxLength
• pattern
• enumeration
• whiteSpace

Method Detail

getID

public String getID()

Description copied from class: SOMType

<xsd:anyType>

Overrides:

getID in class SOMType

getAllowedFacets

public Vector getAllowedFacets()

Description copied from class: SOMType

By default, all sub-classes of SOMType do not allow facets (restrictions). For types that do allow facets, the getAllowedFacets() method returns an Enumeration of String objects for the names of allowable facets.

Overrides:

getAllowedFacets in class SOMType

Returns:

Vector of String objects for the names of allowable facets or null if facets are not allowed for this type.

createDefault

public String createDefault(Map restrictions)

Overrides:

createDefault in class SOMElementalType

isValid

public boolean isValid(String value,
                       Map restrictions)

Description copied from class: SOMElementalType

validate the content. External restrictions override the internal type restrictions to attempt to validate the content of value.

Overrides:

isValid in class SOMElementalType

Parameters:

value - content to be validated

restrictions - a Map of SOMFacet values

Returns:

true if the content of value meets the type and external restrictions
