Method Summary

java.lang.Object	createInstance() Creates a new instance.
java.lang.Object	fromString(java.lang.String s) Generates instance of the Java class denoted by this DataType from the given String.
java.lang.Object	fromString(java.lang.String s, java.lang.String format, java.lang.String lang) Converts a String to an instance of getJavaClass(), using the given format and language settings.
OclCollection	instances()
java.lang.String	toOclLiteral(java.lang.Object obj) Please note that -- in contrast to "toString", this method adds sufficient typing inforamtion to reconstruct the object with an ocl parser.
static java.lang.String	toString(java.lang.Object o) Converts the given object to a plain text String, as used in forms.
static java.lang.String	toString(java.lang.Object o, java.lang.String format, java.lang.String lang) Converst an object to a plain text string with the given format and locale

Method Detail

instances

public OclCollection instances()

Overrides:

instances in class UmlClassifier

toString

public static java.lang.String toString(java.lang.Object o)

Converts the given object to a plain text String, as used in forms. In contrast to toOclLiteral, type information may be lost. In contrast to Object.toString, the ISO format is used for date objects.

toString

public static java.lang.String toString(java.lang.Object o,
                                        java.lang.String format,
                                        java.lang.String lang)

Converst an object to a plain text string with the given format and locale

Parameters:

o - The object to convert

format - The format (see SimpleDateFormat or NumberFormat JavaDoc)

lang - The locale identification string (e.g. 'de').

Returns:

fromString

public java.lang.Object fromString(java.lang.String s)

Generates instance of the Java class denoted by this DataType from the given String. In contrast to fromOclLiteral(), the String is in a plain format, as returned for instance from a web form. This method can only handle an international default format. For different formats, please use fromString(String s, String format, String lang).

fromString

public java.lang.Object fromString(java.lang.String s,
                                   java.lang.String format,
                                   java.lang.String lang)

Converts a String to an instance of getJavaClass(), using the given format and language settings.

Parameters:

s - The string to be converted

format - The format String

lang - An ISO language code

Returns:

s converted to an instance of getJavaClass()

createInstance

public java.lang.Object createInstance()

Description copied from class: UmlClassifier

Creates a new instance. This method will throw an exception. It is overwritten in UmlClass. TODO: Check where this is called, why, and how to make it consistent with datatype (from string) constructors

Overrides:

createInstance in class UmlClassifier

toOclLiteral

public java.lang.String toOclLiteral(java.lang.Object obj)

Description copied from class: UmlClassifier

Please note that -- in contrast to "toString", this method adds sufficient typing inforamtion to reconstruct the object with an ocl parser.

Overrides:

toOclLiteral in class UmlClassifier
