Method Detail

hasSimpleContent

boolean hasSimpleContent()

Returns whether the complex type has simple content. If so, you may use the method getSimpleContent() to fetch the simple contents type. If not, you may use getComplexContentType(), isEmpty(), isElementOnly(), isMixed(), and getParticle(). The method getAttributes() is always valid.

getSimpleContent

XSSimpleContentType getSimpleContent()

If the complex type has simple content, returns the contents type. This is, of course, a simple type.

getComplexContentType

XsComplexContentType getComplexContentType()

If the element hasn't simple content: Returns the element contents type.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalStateException - The element does not have complex content

See Also:

XsComplexContentType.EMPTY, XsComplexContentType.ELEMENT_ONLY, XsComplexContentType.MIXED, isEmpty(), isElementOnly(), isMixed()

isEmpty

boolean isEmpty()

If the element hasn't simple content: Returns whether the elements content is empty. Shortcut for getComplexContentType().equals(EMPTY).

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalStateException - The element does not have complex content

See Also:

XsComplexContentType.EMPTY

isElementOnly

boolean isElementOnly()

If the element hasn't simple content: Returns whether the elements content is elementOnly. Shortcut for getComplexContentType().equals(ELEMENT_ONLY).

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalStateException - The element does not have complex content

See Also:

XsComplexContentType.ELEMENT_ONLY

isMixed

boolean isMixed()

If the element hasn't simple content: Returns whether the elements content is mixed. Shortcut for getComplexContentType().equals(MIXED).

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalStateException - The element does not have complex content

See Also:

XsComplexContentType.MIXED

getParticle

XSParticle getParticle()

If the element hasn't simple content: Returns the complex elements particle.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalStateException - The element has simple content

getAttributes

XSAttributable[] getAttributes()

Returns the complex types attributes.

isExtension

boolean isExtension()

Returns whether the element is a extension of another element.

getExtendedType

XSType getExtendedType()

If the element is an extension: Returns the extended type.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalStateException - The element is no extension.

isRestriction

boolean isRestriction()

Returns whether the element is a restriction of another element.

getRestrictedType

XSType getRestrictedType()

If the element is an restriction: Returns the restricted type.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalStateException - The element is no restriction.
