Class SchemaDVFactory

  • Direct Known Subclasses:
    BaseDVFactory, BaseSchemaDVFactory

    public abstract class SchemaDVFactory
    extends Object
    Defines a factory API that enables applications to

    1. to get the instance of specified SchemaDVFactory implementation

    2. to create/return built-in schema simple types

    3. to create user defined simple types.

    Implementations of this abstract class can be used to get built-in simple types and create user-defined simle types.

    The implementation should store the built-in datatypes in static data, so that they can be shared by multiple parser instance, and multiple threads.

        Get an instance of SchemaDVFactory implementation.

        factoryClass - name of the schema factory implementation to instantiate.

        an instance of SchemaDVFactory implementation
        Throws:

      • getBuiltInType

        public abstract XSSimpleType getBuiltInType​(String name)
        Get a built-in simple type of the given name REVISIT: its still not decided within the Schema WG how to define the ur-types and if all simple types should be derived from a complex type, so as of now we ignore the fact that anySimpleType is derived from anyType, and pass 'null' as the base of anySimpleType. It needs to be changed as per the decision taken.
        Parameters:
        name - the name of the datatype
        Returns:
        the datatype validator of the given name
      • getBuiltInTypes

        public abstract SymbolHash getBuiltInTypes()
        get all built-in simple types, which are stored in a SymbolHash keyed by the name
        Returns:
        a SymbolHash which contains all built-in simple types
