WebLogic Server 6.0sp2 API Reference

weblogic.apache.xerces.validators.datatype
Interface DatatypeValidator

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractDatatypeValidator

public interface DatatypeValidator

DataTypeValidator defines the interface that data type validators must obey. These validators can be supplied by the application writer and may be useful as standalone code as well as plugins to the validator architecture. Note: there is no support for facets in this API, since we are trying to convince W3C to remove facets from the data type spec.

This class is based on an implementation from the Apache XML Project. In future releases the XML parser, XSLT processor, and associated classes will likely be updated to be based on a later version of the Apache implementations. Since Apache does not guarantee backwards compatibility between versions of their software, we cannot guarantee backwards compatibility of any of the classes contained in the weblogic.apache package or sub-packages.

Method Detail

validate

public java.lang.Object validate(java.lang.String content,
                                 java.lang.Object state)
                          throws InvalidDatatypeValueException

Checks that "content" string is valid datatype. If invalid a Datatype validation exception is thrown.

Parameters:

content - A string containing the content to be validated

derivedBylist - Flag which is true when type is derived by list otherwise it it is derived by extension.

Throws:

throws - InvalidDatatypeException if the content is invalid according to the rules for the validators

InvalidDatatypeValueException -

getFacets

public java.util.Hashtable getFacets()

returns the datatype facet if any is set as a Hashtable

Returns:

compare

public int compare(java.lang.String value1,
                   java.lang.String value2)

Compares content in the Domain value vs. lexical value. e.g. If type is a float then 1.0 may be equivalent to 1 even tough both are lexically different.

Parameters:

value1 -

valu2 -

Returns:
