public AbstractNodeTypeManager()

Method Details

getNodeType

public abstract NodeType getNodeType(Name ntName)
                              throws NoSuchNodeTypeException

Return the node type with the specified ntName.

Parameters:

ntName - Name of the node type to be returned.

Returns:

the node type with the specified ntName.

Throws:

NoSuchNodeTypeException - If no such node type exists.

getNodeDefinition

public abstract NodeDefinition getNodeDefinition(QNodeDefinition nd)

Retrieve the NodeDefinition for the given QNodeDefinition.

Parameters:

nd - the QNodeDefinition.

Returns:

the node definition.

getPropertyDefinition

public abstract PropertyDefinition getPropertyDefinition(QPropertyDefinition pd)

Retrieve the PropertyDefinition for the given QPropertyDefinition.

Parameters:

pd - the QPropertyDefinition.

Returns:

the property definition.

getNamePathResolver

public abstract NamePathResolver getNamePathResolver()

Returns the NamePathResolver used to validate JCR names.

Returns:

the NamePathResolver used to convert JCR names/paths to internal onces and vice versa. The resolver may also be used to validate names passed to the various templates.

createNodeTypeTemplate

public NodeTypeTemplate createNodeTypeTemplate()
                                        throws UnsupportedRepositoryOperationException,
RepositoryException

Description copied from interface: NodeTypeManager

Returns an empty NodeTypeTemplate which can then be used to define a node type and passed to NodeTypeManager.registerNodeType.

Specified by:

createNodeTypeTemplate in interface NodeTypeManager

Returns:

A NodeTypeTemplate.

Throws:

UnsupportedRepositoryOperationException - if this implementation does not support node type registration.

RepositoryException - if another error occurs.

RepositoryException

Description copied from interface: NodeTypeManager

Specified by:

createNodeTypeTemplate in interface NodeTypeManager

Parameters:

registerNodeType

public NodeType registerNodeType(NodeTypeDefinition ntd,
 boolean allowUpdate)
                          throws RepositoryException

Description copied from interface: NodeTypeManager

Registers a new node type or updates an existing node type using the specified definition and returns the resulting NodeType object.

Typically, the object passed to this method will be a NodeTypeTemplate (a subclass of NodeTypeDefinition) acquired from NodeTypeManager.createNodeTypeTemplate and then filled-in with definition information.

Specified by:

registerNodeType in interface NodeTypeManager

Parameters:

ntd - an NodeTypeDefinition.

allowUpdate - a boolean

Returns:

the registered node type

Throws:

RepositoryException - if another error occurs.

NoSuchNodeTypeException,
RepositoryException

Description copied from interface: NodeTypeManager

Unregisters the specified node type.

Specified by:

unregisterNodeType in interface NodeTypeManager

Parameters:

name - a String.

Throws:

UnsupportedRepositoryOperationException - if this implementation does not support node type registration.

NoSuchNodeTypeException - if no registered node type exists with the specified name.

RepositoryException - if another error occurs.
