Method Detail

configure

DataTypeDefinition configure(Element dataTypeElement,
                             BasicDataType<?> requestBaseDataType)
                      throws DependencyException

Configures the data type definition, using data from a DOM element

Throws:

DependencyException

configureConditions

protected void configureConditions(Element dataTypeElement)

Configures the conditions of a datatype definition, using data from a DOM element

configureHandlers

protected void configureHandlers(Element dataTypeElement)

Since:

MMBase-1.9

addCondition

protected boolean addCondition(Element childElement)

Uses one subelement of a datatype xml configuration element and interpret it. Possibly this method is a good candidate to override.

Returns:

whether successfully read the element.

addProcessor

protected void addProcessor(int action,
                            Element processorElement,
                            Collection<Integer> unsetTypes)

addCommitProcessor

protected void addCommitProcessor(Element processorElement)

addDeleteProcessor

protected void addDeleteProcessor(Element processorElement)

addDefaultProcessor

protected void addDefaultProcessor(Element processorElement)

setRestrictionData

protected void setRestrictionData(DataType.Restriction restriction,
                                  Element element)

addEnumeration

protected void addEnumeration(Element enumerationElement)

Used the enumeration element.

setProperty

protected boolean setProperty(Element element)

addLengthDataCondition

protected boolean addLengthDataCondition(Element conditionElement)

Considers length related condition elements ('minLength', 'maxLength' , 'length')

Returns:

true if element was used

addDecimalCondition

protected boolean addDecimalCondition(Element conditionElement)

Since:

MMBase-1.9.1

addPasswordProperty

protected boolean addPasswordProperty(Element propertyElement)

addPatternCondition

protected boolean addPatternCondition(Element conditionElement)

Considers the 'pattern' condition element.

Returns:
