getValue

java.lang.Object getValue()

Get the value as an Object. The following types are supported: Boolean Integer Long Double BigDecimal String Binary Date Time Timestamp It is always legal for an implementation to return the value as a String, for example returning a binary value in a base64 encoding. This method exists to allow one value to copy from another value.

true if this value is an element attribute, otherwise false

isContent

boolean isContent()

Determine if this value is an element's content.

Returns:

true if this value is an element's content, otherwise false

isMutable

boolean isMutable()

Determine if this value can be modified. If the value can not be modified, all mutating methods are required to throw an UnsupportedOperationException.

Returns:

true if this value can be modified, otherwise false to indicate that this value is read-only

writeValue

void writeValue(java.io.PrintWriter out,
                boolean fPretty)

Parameters:

out - a PrintWriter object to use to write to

fPretty - true to specify that the output is intended to be as human readable as possible

toString

java.lang.String toString()

Format the XML value into a String in a display format.

Returns:

a String representation of the XML value

hashCode

int hashCode()

Provide a hash value for this XML value. The hash value is defined as one of the following:

1. 0 if getValue() returns null
2. otherwise the hash value is the hashCode() of the string representation of the value

Returns:

the hash value for this XML value
