      org.mmbase.datatypes.BasicDataType<E>
          org.mmbase.datatypes.ComparableDataType<String>
              org.mmbase.datatypes.StringDataType
                  org.mmbase.datatypes.LanguageDataType

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Cloneable, Comparable<DataType<String>>, Descriptor, DataType<String>, LengthDataType<String>, PublicCloneable<AbstractDescriptor>

public class LanguageDataType
extends StringDataType

Returns the current language as a default value. For the rest it is like StringDataType.

Method Summary

String	getDefaultValue(Locale locale, Cloud cloud, Field field) Returns the (locale dependent) default value of this data type,
Iterator<Map.Entry<String,String>>	getEnumerationValues(Locale locale, Cloud cloud, Node node, Field field) Returns an iterator over all possible values for this datatype, as Map.Entrys, or null if no enumeration restrictions apply.
protected static Locale	getLocale(Cloud cloud, Field field)
void	setInSelf(boolean b) If you set this to true, then the names of the languages are not presented in the current locale, but in the language itself (if that is known by the JVM).

getLocale

protected static Locale getLocale(Cloud cloud,
                                  Field field)

getEnumerationValues

public Iterator<Map.Entry<String,String>> getEnumerationValues(Locale locale,
                                                               Cloud cloud,
                                                               Node node,
                                                               Field field)

Description copied from class: BasicDataType

Returns an iterator over all possible values for this datatype, as Map.Entrys, or null if no enumeration restrictions apply. Every Map entry contains as key the 'value' for this datatype and as value it contains the description for this value in the given locale. This Iterator skips all entries which are impossible because of other restrictions on this datatype.

Specified by:

getEnumerationValues in interface DataType<String>

Overrides:

getEnumerationValues in class BasicDataType<String>

Parameters:

locale - for which to produce

cloud - Possibly the possible values depend on a cloud (security)

node - Possibly the possible values depend on an actual node (this may be, and in the default implementation is, ignored)

field - Possibly the possible values depend on an actual field (this may be, and in the default implementation is, ignored)

Returns:

iterator over all possible values for this datatype

getDefaultValue

public String getDefaultValue(Locale locale,
                              Cloud cloud,
                              Field field)

Description copied from class: BasicDataType

Returns the (locale dependent) default value of this data type,

Specified by:

getDefaultValue in interface DataType<String>

Overrides:

getDefaultValue in class ComparableDataType<String>
