Constructor Detail

• RepositoryImpl

  public RepositoryImpl​(String name)

  Create a named repository.

  Parameters:

  name - the name of this repository

Method Detail

• getChangeSupport

  protected ChangeSupport getChangeSupport​(ChangeType ct)

  Called to retrieve the ChangeSupport for this object.

  Your implementation of this method should have the following structure:

   ChangeSupport cs = super.getChangeSupport(ct);
  
   if(someForwarder == null && ct.isMatching(SomeInterface.SomeChangeType)) {
     someForwarder = new ChangeForwarder(...
  
     this.stateVariable.addChangeListener(someForwarder, VariableInterface.AChange);
   }
  
   return cs;
   

  It is usual for the forwarding listeners (someForwarder in this example) to be transient and lazily instantiated. Be sure to register & unregister the forwarder in the code that does the ChangeEvent handling in setter methods.

  Overrides:

  getChangeSupport in class AbstractChangeable

• getAnnotation

  public Annotation getAnnotation()

  Description copied from interface: Annotatable

  Should return the associated annotation object.

  Specified by:

  getAnnotation in interface Annotatable

  Returns:

  an Annotation object, never null

• getName

  public String getName()

  The name of this repository.

  This will be the ${repository} component of any URIs of types defined here.

  Specified by:

  getName in interface FeatureTypes.Repository

  Returns:

  the name of the repository

• getTypes

  public Set getTypes()

  Get a set of all type names defined in this repository.

  Specified by:

  getTypes in interface FeatureTypes.Repository

  Returns:

• getType

  public FeatureTypes.Type getType​(String name)
                            throws NoSuchElementException

  Specified by:

  getType in interface FeatureTypes.Repository

  Parameters:

  name - the name of the Type

  Returns:

  the Type of that name

  Throws:

  NoSuchElementException - if that type can not be found

• createType

  public FeatureTypes.Type createType​(String name,
                                      FeatureFilter schema,
                                      Set parents)

  Create a new type in this repository.

  Parameters:
