Constructor Detail

### BasicProperty

    public BasicProperty(Name name)

Parameters:
  `name` -

Method Detail

### getName

    public Name getName()

  Description copied from interface: `Property`
  Get the name of the property.

  Specified by:
    `getName` in interface `Property`
  Returns:
    the property name; never null

### getValues

    public Iterator<?> getValues()

  Description copied from interface: `Property`
  Obtain the property's values in their natural form. This is equivalent to calling `iterator()`.

  A valid iterator is returned if the property has `single valued` or `multi-valued`.

  The resulting iterator is immutable, and all property values are immutable.

  Specified by:
    `getValues` in interface `Property`
  Returns:
    an iterator over the values; never null
  See Also:
    `Property.getFirstValue()`, `Iterable.iterator()`, `Property.getValuesAsArray()`, `ValueFactory.create(Iterator)`

### getValuesAsArray

    public Object[] getValuesAsArray()

  Description copied from interface: `Property`
  Obtain the property's values as an array of objects in their natural form.

  A valid array is return if the property has `single valued` or `multi-valued`, or a null value is returned if the property is `empty`.

  The resulting array is a copy, guaranteeing immutability for the property.

  Specified by:
    `getValuesAsArray` in interface `Property`
  Returns:
    the array of values
  See Also:
    `Property.getFirstValue()`, `Iterable.iterator()`, `Property.getValues()`, `ValueFactory.create(Object[])`

### compareTo

    public int compareTo(Property that)

  Specified by:
    `compareTo` in interface `Comparable<Property>`

### hashCode

    public int hashCode()

  Overrides:
    `hashCode` in class `Object`

### equals

    public boolean equals(Object obj)

  Overrides:
    `equals` in class `Object`

### getString

    public String getString()

  Description copied from interface: `Readable`
  Get the string form of the object. A `default encoder` is used to encode characters.

  Specified by:
    `getString` in interface `Readable`
  Returns:
    the encoded string
  See Also:
    `Readable.getString(TextEncoder)`

### getString

    public String getString(TextEncoder encoder)

  Description copied from interface: `Readable`
  Get the encoded string form of the object, using the supplied encoder to encode characters.

  Specified by:
    `getString` in interface `Readable`
  Parameters:
    `encoder` - the encoder to use, or null if the `default encoder` should be used
  Returns:
    the encoded string
  See Also:
    `Readable.getString()`

### getString

    public String getString(NamespaceRegistry namespaceRegistry)

  Description copied from interface: `Readable`
  Get the string form of the object, using the supplied namespace registry to convert any namespace URIs to prefixes. A `default encoder` is used to encode characters.

  Specified by:
    `getString` in interface `Readable`
  Parameters:
    `namespaceRegistry` - the namespace registry that should be used to obtain the prefix for any namespace URIs
  Returns:
    the encoded string
  See Also:
    `Readable.getString(NamespaceRegistry,TextEncoder)`

### getString

    public String getString(NamespaceRegistry namespaceRegistry,
                            TextEncoder encoder)

  Description copied from interface: `Readable`
  Get the encoded string form of the object, using the supplied namespace registry to convert the any namespace URIs to prefixes.

  Specified by:
    `getString` in interface `Readable`
  Parameters:
    `namespaceRegistry` - the namespace registry that should be used to obtain the prefix for the namespace URIs
    `encoder` - the encoder to use, or null if the `default encoder` should be used
  Returns:
    the encoded string
  See Also:
    `Readable.getString(NamespaceRegistry)`

### getString

    public String getString(NamespaceRegistry namespaceRegistry,
                            TextEncoder encoder,
                            TextEncoder delimiterEncoder)

  Description copied from interface: `Readable`
  Get the encoded string form of the object, using the supplied namespace registry to convert the names' namespace URIs to prefixes and the supplied encoder to encode characters, and using the second delimiter to encode (or convert) the delimiter used between the namespace prefix and the local part of any names.

  Specified by:
    `getString` in interface `Readable`
  Parameters:
    `namespaceRegistry` - the namespace registry that should be used to obtain the prefix for the namespace URIs in the segment `names`
    `encoder` - the encoder to use for encoding the local part and namespace prefix of any names, or null if the `default encoder` should be used
    `delimiterEncoder` - the encoder to use for encoding the delimiter between the local part and namespace prefix of any names, or null if the standard delimiter should be used
  Returns:
    the encoded string
  See Also:
    `Readable.getString(NamespaceRegistry)`, `Readable.getString(NamespaceRegistry, TextEncoder)`

### toString

    public String toString()

  Overrides:
    `toString` in class `Object`
