Class ElementParticle

All Implemented Interfaces:
ComponentReference, UserSchemaComponent, SourceLocator, Location, SchemaComponent, Locator

public class ElementParticle extends Particle
A reference to an element declaration within the content model of a complex type. This corresponds to an <xs:element ref="x"> element in the XML representation of a schema. Where a local element declaration appears in a content model, using the form <xs:element name="x">, both an element declaration and an element particle are created.

      public ElementDecl getDeclaration() throws MissingComponentException
      Returns the ElementDecl that this element definition references.
      Returns:
      the ElementDecl that this element definition references.
      Throws:
      MissingComponentException - if the reference from the element particle to the corresponding element declaration has not been resolved
    • setReference

      public void setReference(ElementDecl declaration)

    • lookForCycles

      public void lookForCycles(Stack<SchemaComponent> references, SchemaCompiler compiler) throws SchemaException, MissingComponentException
      Description copied from class: SchemaStructure
      This method is called to look for cycles. The object implementing this method is required (a) to raise an exception if the object itself appears in the list of references, (b) to add itself to the list of references, and (c) to call the lookForCycles method on all the objects that it references. This is a dummy implementation that does nothing; it must be overridden for components that can participate in cycles.
      Specified by:
      lookForCycles in interface UserSchemaComponent
      Overrides:
      lookForCycles in class SchemaStructure
      Parameters:
      references - A stack of objects that contain direct or indirect references to this object, and that must therefore not be referred to from this object.
      compiler - the schema compiler
      Throws:
      SchemaException - if cycles are found
      MissingComponentException
    • fixup

      public boolean fixup(SchemaCompiler compiler) throws SchemaException
      Check references from this component to other components
      Specified by:
      fixup in interface UserSchemaComponent
      Specified by:
      fixup in class Particle
      Parameters:
      compiler - is used for reporting errors
      Returns:
      true if all is well, false if errors found
      Throws:
      SchemaException
    • validate

      public boolean validate(SchemaCompiler compiler) throws SchemaException
      Check the validity (consistency) of this element definition.
      Specified by:
      validate in interface UserSchemaComponent
      Specified by:
      validate in class Particle
      Parameters:
      compiler - the schema compiler
      Returns:
      true if validation succeeded, false if errors were found.
      Throws:
      SchemaException - if an error is found and the error listener decides that the error is fatal
    • compile

      public void compile(SchemaCompiler compiler) throws SchemaException
      Compile this local element declaration, considered as a particle of some complex type, by compiling its own complex type definition.
      Specified by:
      compile in class Particle
      Parameters:
      compiler - the schema compiler
      Throws:
      SchemaException - if compilation fails.
    • getTerm

      public Term getTerm() throws MissingComponentException
      Get the term corresponding to this particle
      Specified by:
      getTerm in class Particle
      Returns:
      the corresponding term. For an Element particle, the corresponding term is the element declaration.
      Throws:
      MissingComponentException
    • getElementParticleType

      public SchemaType getElementParticleType(int elementFingerprint)
      Find an element particle within this complex type definition having a given element name (identified by elementName), and return the schema type associated with that element particle. If there is no such particle, return null. If the elementName matches an element wildcard, return the type of the global element declaration with the given name if one exists, or AnyType if none exists and lax validation is permitted by the wildcard.
      Specified by:
      getElementParticleType in class Particle
      Parameters:
      elementFingerprint - Identifies the name of the child element within this content model
      Returns:
      the type of the element identified by the given name fingerprint. The consistency rule "Element Declarations Consistent" ensures that if there are multiple matching declarations, they have consistent types
    • getElementParticleCardinality

      public int getElementParticleCardinality(int elementName) throws MissingComponentException
      Find an element particle within this complex type definition having a given element name (identified by fingerprint), and return the cardinality associated with that element particle, that is, the number of times the element can occur within this complex type. The value is one of StaticProperty.EXACTLY_ONE, StaticProperty.ALLOWS_ZERO_OR_ONE, StaticProperty.ALLOWS_ZERO_OR_MORE, StaticProperty.ALLOWS_ONE_OR_MORE, If there is no such particle, return StaticProperty.EMPTY.
      Specified by:
      getElementParticleCardinality in class Particle
      Parameters:
      elementName - Identifies the name of the child element within this content model

      Throws:
      MissingComponentException
    • containsElementWildcard

      public boolean containsElementWildcard()
      Ask whether the particle contains an element wildcard

      public void gatherAllPermittedElements(IntHashSet result, boolean ignoreWildcards) throws MissingComponentException
      Find the set of all element particles allowed within the content model of this particle, identified by their integer fingerprints. Ignore wildcards.

      gatherAllPermittedElements in class Particle
      Parameters:
      result - an initially-empty integer set in which the results are accumulated
      ignoreWildcards - if true, wildcards are ignored. If false, the result will be a set containing the value XS_INVALID, meaning that it is not possible to enumerate
      Throws:
      MissingComponentException
