      • getValue

        public Object getValue​(Element element,
                               ElementValue[] value,
                               Attributes attrs1,

                        throws OperationNotSupportedException
        Description copied from interface: Type
        This method is intended to receive the child elements in the form of ElementValues (@see ElementValue). Recall that this is a pairing containing a reference to the type and the actual value (do not call .getValue on the types). This should return the real value (interpreted value) for this element based on it's children. Remember, this is a XML is a tree structure, so if you don't include some children, they are gone forever (so be careful when ignoring data).

        If the element had #CData (Nested Child Text), this will appear in the first slot, with a null Element.

        A SAXNotSupportedException should be thrown when the child's [inherited, default implementation of getValue(ElementValue[],Attributes)] method should be used.

        Returns:
        Object
        Throws:
        OperationNotSupportedException

        Type.getValue(org.geotools.xml.schema.Element, org.geotools.xml.schema.ElementValue[], org.xml.sax.Attributes, java.util.Map)
      • getName

        Type.getName()
      • getInstanceType

        public Class getInstanceType()
        Description copied from interface: Type
        This will return the intended Java Class for this element type. For generic complex types this will be an object array. SimpleTypes will match as they are parsed, and custom extensions will also return the appropriate class value.
        See Also:

        Specified by:
        canEncode in interface Type
        Parameters:
        element - The element which may be used to represent the Object. This is included to allow for child definitions to include addition information where appropriate.
        value - An Object which may or may not be encodeable by this type. The value may also be null.
        Returns:
        false, subclass override to allow encoding
