All Implemented Interfaces:
XMLContentModel

public class SimpleContentModel
extends java.lang.Object
implements XMLContentModel

SimpleContentModel is a derivative of the abstract content model base class that handles a small set of simple content models that are just way overkill to give the DFA treatment.

This class handles the following scenarios:

These all involve a unary operation with one element type, or a binary operation with two elements. These are very simple and can be checked in a simple way without a DFA and without the overhead of setting up a DFA for such a simple check.

Constructor Summary
SimpleContentModel(QName firstChild, QName secondChild, int cmOp)
          Constructs a simple content model.
SimpleContentModel(QName firstChild, QName secondChild, int cmOp, boolean dtd)
          Constructs a simple content model.
 
Method Summary
 void checkUniqueParticleAttribution(SchemaGrammar gram)
           
 ContentLeafNameTypeVector getContentLeafNameTypeVector()
           
 void setSubstitutionGroupComparator(SubstitutionGroupComparator comparator)
          The setter method to pass in the SubstitutionGroupComparator.
 int validateContent(QName[] children, int offset, int length)
          Check that the specified content is valid according to this content model.
 int validateContentSpecial(QName[] children, int offset, int length)
          This method is different from "validateContent" in that it will try to use the SubstitutionGroupComparator to match children against the content model.

Method Detail

checkUniqueParticleAttribution

public void checkUniqueParticleAttribution(SchemaGrammar gram)
                                    throws java.lang.Exception
Specified by:
checkUniqueParticleAttribution in interface XMLContentModel

validateContent

public int validateContent(QName[] children,
                           int offset,
                           int length)
                    throws java.lang.Exception
Check that the specified content is valid according to this content model. This method can also be called to do 'what if' testing of content models just to see if they would be valid.

A value of -1 in the children array indicates a PCDATA node. All other indexes will be positive and represent child elements. The count can be zero, since some elements have the EMPTY content model and that must be confirmed.

Specified by:
validateContent in interface XMLContentModel
Parameters:
children - The children of this element. Each integer is an index within the StringPool of the child element name. An index of -1 is used to indicate an occurrence of non-whitespace character data.
offset - Offset into the array where the children starts.
length - The number of entries in the children array.
Returns:
The value -1 if fully valid, else the 0 based index of the child that first failed. If the value returned is equal to the number of children, then the specified children are valid but additional content is required to reach a valid ending state.
Throws:
java.lang.Exception - Thrown on error.

validateContentSpecial

public int validateContentSpecial(QName[] children,
                                  int offset,
                                  int length)
                           throws java.lang.Exception
Description copied from interface: XMLContentModel
This method is different from "validateContent" in that it will try to use the SubstitutionGroupComparator to match children against the content model.

A value of -1 in the children array indicates a PCDATA node. All other indexes will be positive and represent child elements. The count can be zero, since some elements have the EMPTY content model and that must be confirmed.

Specified by:
validateContentSpecial in interface XMLContentModel
Following copied from interface: org.apache.xerces.validators.common.XMLContentModel
Parameters:
children - The children of this element. Each integer is an index within the StringPool of the child element name. An index of -1 is used to indicate an occurrence of non-whitespace character data.
offset - Offset into the array where the children starts.
length - The number of entries in the children array.
Returns:
The value -1 if fully valid, else the 0 based index of the child that first failed. If the value returned is equal to the number of children, then the specified children are valid but additional content is required to reach a valid ending state.
Throws:
java.lang.Exception - Thrown on error.

setSubstitutionGroupComparator

public void setSubstitutionGroupComparator(SubstitutionGroupComparator comparator)
Description copied from interface: XMLContentModel
The setter method to pass in the SubstitutionGroupComparator.
Specified by:
setSubstitutionGroupComparator in interface XMLContentModel
Following copied from interface: org.apache.xerces.validators.common.XMLContentModel
Parameters:
comparator - a SubstitutionGroupComparator object.
Returns:
 
Throws:
-  

whatCanGoHere

public int whatCanGoHere(boolean fullyValid,
                         InsertableElementsInfo info)
                  throws java.lang.Exception
Returns information about which elements can be placed at a particular point in the passed element's content model.

Note that the incoming content model to test must be valid at least up to the insertion point. If not, then -1 will be returned and the info object will not have been filled in.

If, on return, the info.isValidEOC flag is set, then the 'insert after' element is a valid end of content. In other words, nothing needs to be inserted after it to make the parent element's content model valid.

Specified by:
whatCanGoHere in interface XMLContentModel
Parameters:
fullyValid - Only return elements that can be inserted and still maintain the validity of subsequent elements past the insertion point (if any). If the insertion point is at the end, and this is true, then only elements that can be legal final states will be returned.
info - An object that contains the required input data for the method, and which will contain the output information if successful.
Returns:
The value -1 if fully valid, else the 0 based index of the child that first failed before the insertion point. If the value returned is equal to the number of children, then the specified children are valid but additional content is required to reach a valid ending state.
