public interface LivePrismItemDefinition

TODO ... describes operations executable when the definition is "live and well" in its place, like the complex type definition in prism container Work in progress.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
<T extends ItemDefinition<?>> T	findItemDefinition(@NotNull ItemPath path, @NotNull Class<T> clazz)	Used to find a matching item definition _within_ this definition.
boolean	isValidFor(@NotNull QName elementQName, @NotNull Class<? extends ItemDefinition<?>> clazz, boolean caseInsensitive)	Returns true if this definition is valid for given element name and definition class, in either case-sensitive (the default) or case-insensitive way.
static boolean	matchesThisDefinition(@NotNull ItemPath path, @NotNull Class<?> clazz, @NotNull Object _this)	Helper method to implement findItemDefinition(ItemPath, Class) for unstructured definitions.

Method Details

isValidFor

boolean isValidFor(@NotNull
 @NotNull QName elementQName,
 @NotNull
 @NotNull Class<? extends ItemDefinition<?>> clazz,
 boolean caseInsensitive)

Returns true if this definition is valid for given element name and definition class, in either case-sensitive (the default) or case-insensitive way. Used e.g. for "slow" path lookup where we iterate over all definitions in a complex type.

findItemDefinition

<T extends ItemDefinition<?>> T findItemDefinition(@NotNull
 @NotNull ItemPath path,
 @NotNull
 @NotNull Class<T> clazz)

Used to find a matching item definition _within_ this definition. Treats e.g. de-referencing in prism references.

matchesThisDefinition

static boolean matchesThisDefinition(@NotNull
 @NotNull ItemPath path,
 @NotNull
 @NotNull Class<?> clazz,
 @NotNull
 @NotNull Object _this)

Helper method to implement findItemDefinition(ItemPath, Class) for unstructured definitions.
