Method Detail

getElement

public XsdAbstractElement getElement()

createFromXsd

public static ReferenceBase createFromXsd(XsdAbstractElement element)

This method creates a ReferenceBase object that serves as a wrapper to XsdAbstractElement objects. If a XsdAbstractElement has a ref attribute it results in a UnsolvedReference object. If it doesn't have a ref attribute and has a name attribute it's a NamedConcreteElement. If it isn't a UnsolvedReference or a NamedConcreteElement then it's a ConcreteElement.

Parameters:

element - The element which will be "wrapped".

Returns:

A wrapper object for the element received.

getName

private static String getName(XsdAbstractElement element)

getRef

static String getRef(XsdAbstractElement element)

getNodeValue

private static String getNodeValue(XsdAbstractElement element,
                                   String nodeName)

Parameters:

element - The element that contains the attributes.

nodeName - The attribute name that will be searched.

Returns:

The value of the attribute contained in element with the name nodeName.
