      Set the ObjectConverter to be used. This allows user-defined object conversions to override or supplement the standard conversions
      Parameters:
      converter - the user-supplied ObjectConverter

    • getObjectConverter

      public ObjectConverter getObjectConverter()

      Specified by:
      createAtomicType in interface XQDataFactory
      Parameters:
      baseType - the built-in atomic type, typically a constant such as XQItemType.XQBASETYPE_BOOLEAN
