Constructor Detail

Imager

public Imager(org.w3c.dom.Node imager)
       throws SchemaException,
              java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

Constructs a new instance of an Imager from an given XML Schema Node.
Normally this constructor is only used by de.lehmannet.om.util.SchemaLoader

Parameters:

imager - The XML Schema element that represents this imager

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if parameter is null,

SchemaException - if the given Node does not match the XML Schema specifications

Imager

protected Imager(java.lang.String model)
          throws java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

Constructs a new instance of an Imager.

Parameters:

model - The imager model name

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if model is null

Method Detail

getDisplayName

public java.lang.String getDisplayName()

Returns a display name for this element.
The method differs from the toString() method as toString() shows more technical information about the element. Also the formating of toString() can spread over several lines.
This method returns a string (in one line) that can be used as displayname in e.g. a UI dropdown box.

Specified by:

Specified by:

getDisplayName in class SchemaElement

Returns:

Returns a String with a one line display name

addToXmlElement

public abstract org.w3c.dom.Element addToXmlElement(org.w3c.dom.Element element)

Specified by:

addToXmlElement in interface IImager

Parameters:

parent - The parent element for this IImager

Returns:

Returns the element given as parameter with this IImager as child element.
Might return null if parent was null.

addAsLinkToXmlElement

public org.w3c.dom.Element addAsLinkToXmlElement(org.w3c.dom.Element parent)

Adds the imager link to an given XML DOM Element The IImager element itself will be attached to given elements ownerDocument. If the ownerDocument has no IImager container, it will be created.
Example:
<parameterElement>
<imagerLink>123</imagerLink>
</parameterElement>
More stuff of the xml document goes here
<imagerContainer>
<imager id="123">
imager description goes here
</imager>
</imagerContainer>

Specified by:

addAsLinkToXmlElement in interface IImager

Parameters:

parent - The element under which the the imager link is created

Returns:

Returns the Element given as parameter with a additional imager link, and the imager element under the imager container of the ownerDocument Might return null if element was null.

protected org.w3c.dom.Element createXmlImagerElement(org.w3c.dom.Element parent)

Creates an XML DOM Element for the Imager. The new Imager element will be added as child element to an given parent element. The given parent element should be the target container. All specialised subclasses may use this method to create a Imager element under which they may store their addition data.
Example:
<imagerContainer>
<imager>
More specialised stuff goes here
