    IComponent, ILinkable, IMapping
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    MappingDefinition, MappingDirect
    public abstract class MappingBase
extends LinkableBase

    • Method Detail

      • getBoundClass

        public abstract BoundClass getBoundClass()
        Get the mapped class information. This must be implemented in each subclass to return the type of the bound class.
        Returns:
        information for mapped class

      • addIMarshallableMethod

        protected void addIMarshallableMethod()
                               throws org.jibx.runtime.JiBXException
        Generate marshallable interface methods for this mapping. This is not applicable to abstract mappings, since they cannot be marshalled as separate items.
        Throws:
        org.jibx.runtime.JiBXException - if error in generating code

      • addIUnmarshallableMethod

        protected void addIUnmarshallableMethod()
                                 throws org.jibx.runtime.JiBXException
        Generate unmarshallable interface method for this mapping. This is not applicable to abstract mappings, since they cannot be unmarshalled as separate items.
        Throws:
        org.jibx.runtime.JiBXException - if error in generating code

      • getMappingName

        public String getMappingName()
        Description copied from interface: IMapping
        Get the mapping name used in binding tables.
        Specified by:
        getMappingName in interface IMapping
        Returns:
        name

      • getTypeName

        public String getTypeName()
        Description copied from interface: IMapping
        Get type name.
        Specified by:
        getTypeName in interface IMapping
        Returns:
        qualified type name, in text form (null if unnamed)
