Field Detail

BASE_NAME

public static final java.lang.String BASE_NAME

Constant Field Values

baseSchema

private static ContentElementListSchema baseSchema
Constructor Detail

ContentElementListSchema

private ContentElementListSchema()
Construct a schema that vinculates an entity to be a content element list. Note that there are no different types of content element list as it happens for concepts (e.g. Person, Address...), IREs (e.g. IOTA, ANY, ALL...) and the like. Therefore there is no ContentElementListSchema constructor that takes a String parameter.

Method Detail

getBaseSchema

public static ObjectSchema getBaseSchema()
Retrieve the generic base schema for all content element lists.

Returns:
the generic base schema for all content element lists.

newInstance

public AbsObject newInstance()
                      throws OntologyException
Creates an Abstract descriptor to hold a content element list

Overrides:
newInstance in class ContentElementSchema
Throws:
OntologyException

validate

public void validate(AbsObject abs,
                     Ontology onto)
              throws OntologyException
Check whether a given abstract descriptor complies with this schema.

Overrides:
validate in class ObjectSchema
Parameters:
abs - The abstract descriptor to be checked
Throws:
OntologyException - If the abstract descriptor does not complies with this schema

descendsFrom

protected boolean descendsFrom(ObjectSchema s)
Return true if - s is the base schema for the XXXSchema class this schema is an instance of (e.g. s is ConceptSchema.getBaseSchema() and this schema is an instance of ConceptSchema) - s is the base schema for a super-class of the XXXSchema class this schema is an instance of (e.g. s is TermSchema.getBaseSchema() and this schema is an instance of ConceptSchema)

Overrides:
descendsFrom in class ContentElementSchema
