Method Detail

getType

public PropertyType getType()

Description copied from interface: PropertyDescriptor

The type of the property defined by the descriptor.

This value should never be null. The type contains information about the value of the property such as its java class.

Specified by:

getType in interface PropertyDescriptor

getName

public Name getName()

Description copied from interface: PropertyDescriptor

The name of the property defined by the descriptor, with respect to its containing type or entity..

This value may be null in some instances. Also note that this is not the same name as getType().getName(). The former is the name of the instance, the latter is the name of the type of the instance.

Specified by:

getName in interface PropertyDescriptor

getMinOccurs

public int getMinOccurs()

Description copied from interface: PropertyDescriptor

The minimum number of occurrences of the property within its containing entity.

This value is always an integer greater than or equal to zero.

Specified by:

getMinOccurs in interface PropertyDescriptor

Returns:

An integer >= 0

getMaxOccurs

public int getMaxOccurs()

Description copied from interface: PropertyDescriptor

The maximum number of occurrences of the property within its containing entity.

This value is a positive integer. A value of -1 means that the max number of occurrences is unbounded.

Specified by:

getMaxOccurs in interface PropertyDescriptor

Returns:

An integer >= 0, or -1.

isNillable

public boolean isNillable()

Description copied from interface: PropertyDescriptor

Flag indicating if null is an allowable value for the property.
