Method Detail

setName

public void setName(String name)

Sets the name of the node type.

Specified by:

setName in interface NodeTypeTemplate

Parameters:

name - a String.

setDeclaredSuperTypeNames

public void setDeclaredSuperTypeNames(String[] names)

Sets the names of the supertypes of the node type.

Specified by:

setDeclaredSuperTypeNames in interface NodeTypeTemplate

Parameters:

names - a String array.

setAbstract

public void setAbstract(boolean abstractStatus)

Sets the abstract flag of the node type.

Specified by:

setAbstract in interface NodeTypeTemplate

Parameters:

abstractStatus - a boolean.

setMixin

public void setMixin(boolean mixin)

Sets the mixin flag of the node type.

Specified by:

setMixin in interface NodeTypeTemplate

Parameters:

mixin - a boolean.

setOrderableChildNodes

public void setOrderableChildNodes(boolean orderable)

Sets the orderable child nodes flag of the node type.

Specified by:

setOrderableChildNodes in interface NodeTypeTemplate

Parameters:

orderable - a boolean.

setPrimaryItemName

public void setPrimaryItemName(String name)

Sets the name of the primary item.

Specified by:

setPrimaryItemName in interface NodeTypeTemplate

Parameters:

name - a String.

getPropertyDefinitionTemplates

public List getPropertyDefinitionTemplates()

Returns a mutable List of PropertyDefinitionTemplate objects. To define a new NodeTypeTemplate or change an existing one, PropertyDefinitionTemplate objects can be added to or removed from this List.

Specified by:

getPropertyDefinitionTemplates in interface NodeTypeTemplate

Returns:

a mutable List of PropertyDefinitionTemplate objects.

getNodeDefinitionTemplates

public List getNodeDefinitionTemplates()

Returns a mutable List of NodeDefinitionTemplate objects. To define a new NodeTypeTemplate or change an existing one, NodeDefinitionTemplate objects can be added to or removed from this List.

Specified by:

getNodeDefinitionTemplates in interface NodeTypeTemplate

Returns:

a mutable List of NodeDefinitionTemplate objects.

getName

public String getName()

Returns the name of the node type.

In implementations that support node type registration, if this NodeTypeDefinition object is actually a newly-created empty NodeTypeTemplate, then this method will return null.

Specified by:

getName in interface NodeTypeDefinition

Returns:

a String

getDeclaredSupertypeNames

public String[] getDeclaredSupertypeNames()

Returns the names of the supertypes actually declared in this node type.

In implementations that support node type registration, if this NodeTypeDefinition object is actually a newly-created empty NodeTypeTemplate, then this method will return an array containing a single string indicating the node type nt:base.

Specified by:

getDeclaredSupertypeNames in interface NodeTypeDefinition

Returns:

an array of Strings

isAbstract

public boolean isAbstract()

Returns true if this is an abstract node type; returns false otherwise.

An abstract node type is one that cannot be assigned as the primary or mixin type of a node but can be used in the definitions of other node types as a superclass.

In implementations that support node type registration, if this NodeTypeDefinition object is actually a newly-created empty NodeTypeTemplate, then this method will return false.

Specified by:

isAbstract in interface NodeTypeDefinition

Returns:

a boolean

isMixin

public boolean isMixin()

Returns true if this is a mixin type; returns false if it is primary.

In implementations that support node type registration, if this NodeTypeDefinition object is actually a newly-created empty NodeTypeTemplate, then this method will return false.

Specified by:

isMixin in interface NodeTypeDefinition

Returns:

a boolean

hasOrderableChildNodes

public boolean hasOrderableChildNodes()

Returns true if nodes of this type must support orderable child nodes; returns false otherwise. If a node type returns true on a call to this method, then all nodes of that node type must support the method Node.orderBefore. If a node type returns false on a call to this method, then nodes of that node type may support Node.orderBefore. Only the primary node type of a node controls that node's status in this regard. This setting on a mixin node type will not have any effect on the node.

In implementations that support node type registration, if this NodeTypeDefinition object is actually a newly-created empty NodeTypeTemplate, then this method will return false.

Specified by:

hasOrderableChildNodes in interface NodeTypeDefinition

Returns:

a boolean

getPrimaryItemName

public String getPrimaryItemName()

Returns the name of the primary item (one of the child items of the nodes of this node type). If this node has no primary item, then this method returns null. This indicator is used by the method Node.getPrimaryItem().

In implementations that support node type registration, if this NodeTypeDefinition object is actually a newly-created empty NodeTypeTemplate, then this method will return null.

Specified by:

getPrimaryItemName in interface NodeTypeDefinition

Returns:

a String

getDeclaredPropertyDefinitions

public PropertyDefinition[] getDeclaredPropertyDefinitions()

Returns an array containing the property definitions actually declared in this node type.

In implementations that support node type registration, if this NodeTypeDefinition object is actually a newly-created empty NodeTypeTemplate, then this method will return null.

Specified by:

getDeclaredPropertyDefinitions in interface NodeTypeDefinition

Returns:

an array of PropertyDefinitions

getDeclaredChildNodeDefinitions

public NodeDefinition[] getDeclaredChildNodeDefinitions()

Returns an array containing the child node definitions actually declared in this node type.

In implementations that support node type registration, if this NodeTypeDefinition object is actually a newly-created empty NodeTypeTemplate, then this method will return null.

Specified by:

getDeclaredChildNodeDefinitions in interface NodeTypeDefinition

Returns:

an array of NodeDefinitions
