  • Method Details

    • valueOf

      public static StringValue valueOf(Object obj)
      This method may be used to convert the object to a string value. If the object is null, an UNKNOWN string value will be returned.
      Parameters:
      obj - The object that should be converted to a string value.
      Returns:
      String value for the specified object.
    • parseString

      public static String parseString(Object obj)
      This method will parse the object to a primitive string. The method does not allow a null pointer to be passed as argument.
      Parameters:
      obj - The object that should be converted to a primitive string.
      Returns:
      Primitive string for the specified object value.
    • forType

      public IPrimitiveValue forType(String typeName, IMultilingualText displayValue)
      Description copied from interface: IPrimitiveValue
      This method adds the type and display information to the value, and returns the value with this added information. The method will not change the state of the value the method is invoked on, but it will return a copy of the current value with the added information.
      Specified by:
      forType in interface IPrimitiveValue
      Specified by:
      forType in class AbstractValue
      Parameters:
      typeName - The type of the value.
      displayValue - Multilingual text containing display values.
      Returns:
      The value with the added information.
    • contains

      public boolean contains(Object objValue)
      Description copied from interface: IValue
      This method returns a boolean indicating if the object passed to this method is entirely part of this value. This method will thus also return true when the object passed is equal to this value, but the method will return false when only part (or none) of the object is represented by this value. Note that for value types that are singular in nature (for instance, implementations of ISingleValue) the operation of this method is limited to an equality check.
      Specified by:
      contains in interface IValue
      Specified by:
      contains in class AbstractValue
      Parameters:
      objValue - Object for which should be checked if it is entirely part of this value.
      Returns:
      boolean indicating if the object passed is entirely part of this value.
    • getDataType

      public DataType getDataType()
      Description copied from interface: IValue
      This method returns the data type of the value.
      Specified by:
      getDataType in interface IValue
      Specified by:
      getDataType in class AbstractValue
      Returns:
      The data type of the value.
    • isUnknown

      public boolean isUnknown()
      Description copied from interface: IValue
      This method returns a boolean indicating if the value is unknown.
      Specified by:

      Specified by:
      isUnknown in class AbstractValue
      Returns:
