ComplexTypeThis method returns null if no such property is found.

ComplexTypeNote: Special care should be taken when using this method in the case that two properties
with the same local name but different namespace uri exist. For this reason using ComplexType.getDescriptor(Name) is safer.
This method returns null if no such property is found.
getDescriptor in interface ComplexTypename - The name of the property to get.null.public Collection<PropertyDescriptor> getDescriptors()
ComplexTypeA complex type can be composed of attributes and associations which means this collection
returns instances of AttributeDescriptor and AssociationDescriptor.
getDescriptors in interface ComplexTypepublic boolean isInline()
ComplexTypeThis facility is used to "hide" an attribute from XPath searches, while the compelx contents will still be navigated no additional nesting will be considered. It will be as if the content were "folded" inline resulting in a flatter nesting structure.
Construct described using Java Interfaces:
interface TestSample {
String name;
List measurement;
}
interface Measurement {
long timestamp;
Point point;
long reading;
}
The above is can hold the following information:
[ name="survey1",
measurements=(
[timestamp=3,point=(2,3), reading=4200],
[timestamp=9,point=(2,4), reading=445600],
)
]
Out of the box this is represented to XPath as the following tree:
root/name: survey1
root/measurement[0]/timestamp:3
root/measurement[0]/point: (2,3)
root/measurement[0]/reading: 4200
root/measurement[1]/timestamp:9
root/measurement[2]/point: (2,4)
root/measurement[3]/reading: 445600
By inlining Measurement we can achive the following:
root/name: survey1
root/timestamp[0]:3
root/point[0]: (2,3)
root/reading[0]: 4200
root/timestamp[1]:9
root/point[1]: (2,4)
root/reading[1] 445600
