      • init

        public void init​(Serializable value)
                  throws PropertyException
        Description copied from interface: Property
        Initializes the property with the given normalized value.

        The given value must be normalized - note that no check is done on that.

        The phantom flag is unset by this operation.

        This method should be used to initialize properties.

        Specified by:
        init in interface Property
        Parameters:
        value - the normalized value to set
        Throws:
        PropertyException
      • setValue

        public void setValue​(int index,
                             Object value)
                      throws PropertyException
        Description copied from interface: Property
        Sets a child property value given its index. This method is required only for List properties.

        If this method is not supported, an UnsupportedOperationException must be thrown.

        This method will mark the child value as dirty for existing values and in the case of map properties it will mark phantom properties as new properties.

        Specified by:
        setValue in interface Property
        value - the new value
        Throws:
        PropertyNotFoundException - if the child property is not found in the type definition
        PropertyException
      • size

        public int size()

        Description copied from interface: Property
        Resolves the given path relative to the current property and return the property if any is found otherwise throws an exception.

        The path format is a subset of XPath. Thus, / is used as path element separator, [n] for list element indexes. Attribute separator '@' are not supported since all properties are assumed to be elements. Also you .. and . can be used as element names.

        Example of paths:

        • dc:title
        • attachments/item[2]/mimeType
        • ../dc:title

        Normalized values are the ones that are used for transportation over the net and that are given to the storage implementation to be stored in the repository

        Normalized values must be Serializable

        If the given value is already normalized it will be returned back.

        Specified by:

        Specified by:
        isNormalized in interface Property
        Parameters:
        value - the value to check
