                        FileSystem fs)
                 throws RepositoryException

Method Detail

getRegisteredNodeTypes

public Name[] getRegisteredNodeTypes()

Returns the names of all registered node types. That includes primary and mixin node types.

Returns:

the names of all registered node types.

registerNodeType

public EffectiveNodeType registerNodeType(QNodeTypeDefinition ntd)
                                   throws InvalidNodeTypeDefException,
                                          RepositoryException

Validates the NodeTypeDef and returns an EffectiveNodeType object representing the newly registered node type.

The validation includes the following checks:

• Supertypes must exist and be registered
• Inheritance graph must not be circular
• Aggregation of supertypes must not result in name conflicts, ambiguities, etc.
• Definitions of auto-created properties must specify a name
• Default values in property definitions must satisfy value constraints specified in the same property definition
• Definitions of auto-created child-nodes must specify a name
• Default node type in child-node definitions must exist and be registered
• The aggregation of the default node types in child-node definitions must not result in name conflicts, ambiguities, etc.
• Definitions of auto-created child-nodes must not specify default node types which would lead to infinite child node creation (e.g. node type 'A' defines auto-created child node with default node type 'A' ...)
• Node types specified as constraints in child-node definitions must exist and be registered
• The aggregation of the node types specified as constraints in child-node definitions must not result in name conflicts, ambiguities, etc.
• Default node types in child-node definitions must satisfy node type constraints specified in the same child-node definition

Parameters:

ntd - the definition of the new node type

Returns:

an EffectiveNodeType instance

Throws:

InvalidNodeTypeDefException - if the given node type definition is invalid.

RepositoryException - if a repository error occurs.

registerNodeTypes

public void registerNodeTypes(Collection<QNodeTypeDefinition> ntDefs)
                       throws InvalidNodeTypeDefException,
                              RepositoryException

Same as registerNodeType(QNodeTypeDefinition) except that a collection of NodeTypeDefs is registered instead of just one.

This method can be used to register a set of node types that have dependencies on each other.

Parameters:

ntDefs - a collection of QNodeTypeDefinition objects

Throws:

InvalidNodeTypeDefException - if the given node type definition is invalid.

RepositoryException - if a repository error occurs.

unregisterNodeTypes

Same as unregisterNodeType(Name) except that a set of node types is unregistered instead of just one.

This method can be used to unregister a set of node types that depend on each other.

Parameters:

ntNames - a collection of Name objects denoting the node types to be unregistered

Throws:

NoSuchNodeTypeException - if any of the specified names does not denote a registered node type.

RepositoryException - if another error occurs

1. the node type must obviously be registered.
2. a built-in node type can not be unregistered.
3. the node type must not have dependents, i.e. other node types that are referencing it.
4. the node type must not be currently used by any workspace.

Parameters:

ntName - name of the node type to be unregistered

Throws:

NoSuchNodeTypeException - if ntName does not denote a registered node type.

Checks whether there is existing content that would conflict with the given node type definition.

This method is not implemented yet and always throws a RepositoryException.

TODO

1. apply deep locks on root nodes in every workspace or alternatively put repository in 'exclusive' or 'single-user' mode
2. check if the given node type (or any node type that has dependencies on this node type) is currently referenced by nodes in the repository.
3. check if applying the changed definitions to the affected items would violate existing node type constraints
4. apply and persist changes to affected nodes (e.g. update definition id's, etc.)

   the above checks/actions are absolutely necessary in order to guarantee integrity of repository content.

   Parameters:

   ntd - The node type definition replacing the former node type definition of the same name.

   Throws:

   RepositoryException - If there is conflicting content or if the check failed for some other reason.

checkForReferencesInContent

protected void checkForReferencesInContent(Name nodeTypeName)
                                    throws RepositoryException

Checks whether there is existing content that directly or indirectly refers to the specified node type.

This method is not implemented yet and always throws a RepositoryException.

TODO:

1. apply deep locks on root nodes in every workspace or alternatively put repository in 'single-user' mode
2. check if the given node type is currently referenced by nodes in the repository.
3. remove the node type if it is not currently referenced, otherwise throw exception

   the above checks are absolutely necessary in order to guarantee integrity of repository content.

   Parameters:

   nodeTypeName - The name of the node type to be checked.

   Throws:

   RepositoryException - If the specified node type is currently being referenced or if the check failed for some other reason.
