Interface BindingComponent
-
- All Known Implementing Classes:
XMLBindingComponent
public interface BindingComponent
This interface is the abstraction of any type of source that can interact with the Source Code Generator. From the Source Code Generator point of view, the source document used to generate Java source code is totally transparent and is not exposed.Specific implementation of that class will represent the source document used. For instance when generating source code from an XML Schema, the source generator will interact with an
XMLBindingComponent
whereas when generating source code from an UML model object model, the source generator will interact with an UMLBindingComponent (This is obviously just an example, no UML Object Model has been as of today integrated in Castor).A binding component can be of three different types:
- MEMBER: this type of BindingComponent will represent a java class member.
- INTERFACE: this type of BindingComponent will represent a java interface.
- CLASS: this type of BindingComponent will represent a java class.

-
getExtends
java.lang.String getExtends()
Returns the name of a super class for the current BindingComponent. Null is returned if this BindingComponent is not meant to be mapped to a java class.- Returns:
- the name of a super class for the current BindingComponent. Null is returned if this BindingComponent is not meant to be mapped to a java class.
-
getImplements
java.lang.String[] getImplements()
Returns an array of the different interface names implemented by the class that will represent the current BindingComponent. Null is returned if this BindingComponent is not meant to be mapped to a java class.- Returns:
- an array of the different interface names implemented by the class that will represent the current BindingComponent. Null is returned if this BindingComponent is not meant to be mapped to a java class.
-
getJavaClassName
java.lang.String getJavaClassName()
Returns a valid Java Class Name corresponding to this BindingComponent. This name is not qualified, this is only a local Java class name.- Returns:
