Method Detail

isRegistered

boolean isRegistered(java.lang.Class javaType)

Returns a flag indicating if this type mapping has a mapping for a particular Java class.

Parameters:

javaType - the class.

Returns:

true if there is a mapping for the type.

isRegistered

boolean isRegistered(javax.xml.namespace.QName xmlType)

Returns a flag indicating if this type mapping has a mapping for a particular XML Schema QName.

Parameters:

xmlType - the QName.

Returns:

true if there is a mapping for the type.

register

void register(java.lang.Class javaType,
              javax.xml.namespace.QName xmlType,
              Type type)

Register a type, manually specifying the java class, the schema type, and the Aegis type object that provides serialization, deserialization, and schema.

Parameters:

javaType - Java class.

xmlType - XML Schema type QName.

type - Aegis type object.

register

void register(Type type)

Register a type that self-describes the schema type and the Java class.

Parameters:

type - Aegis type object that

removeType

void removeType(Type type)

getType

Type getType(java.lang.Class javaType)

getType

Type getType(javax.xml.namespace.QName xmlType)

getTypeQName

javax.xml.namespace.QName getTypeQName(java.lang.Class clazz)

getTypeCreator

TypeCreator getTypeCreator()

getMappingIdentifierURI

java.lang.String getMappingIdentifierURI()

Each mapping has a URI that identifies it. The mapping for a service uses the service URI. XML files can choose to only contribute mappings that match.

Returns:

the URI.
