Class DataInstance<T extends AbstractTreeElement<T>>

java.lang.Object

org.javarosa.core.model.instance.DataInstance<T>

All Implemented Interfaces:

Persistable, Externalizable

Direct Known Subclasses:

ExternalDataInstance, FormInstance

public abstract class DataInstance<T extends AbstractTreeElement<T>>
extends Object
implements Persistable

A data instance represents a tree structure of abstract tree elements which can be accessed and read with tree references. It is a supertype of different types of concrete models which may or may not be read only.

Constructor Detail

DataInstance

public DataInstance()

DataInstance

public DataInstance(String instanceid)

Method Detail

unpackReference

public static TreeReference unpackReference(IDataReference ref)

getBase

public abstract AbstractTreeElement<T> getBase()

getRoot

public abstract T getRoot()

getInstanceId

public String getInstanceId()

setInstanceId

protected void setInstanceId(String instanceid)

isRuntimeEvaluated

public boolean isRuntimeEvaluated()

Whether the structure of this instance is only available at runtime.

Returns:

true if the instance structure is available and runtime and can't be checked for consistency until the reference is made available. False otherwise.

resolveReference

public T resolveReference(TreeReference ref)

explodeReference

public List<AbstractTreeElement<T>> explodeReference(TreeReference ref)

getTemplate

public T getTemplate(TreeReference ref)

getTemplatePath

public T getTemplatePath(TreeReference ref)

hasTemplatePath

public boolean hasTemplatePath(TreeReference ref)

Determines if a path exists for a reference; template elements are followed when available. Non-absolute references aren't followed.

Parameters:

ref - the reference path to be followed

Returns:

was a valid path found for the reference?

resolveReference

public T resolveReference(IDataReference binding)

setFormId

public void setFormId(int formId)

getFormId

public int getFormId()

getName

public String getName()

setName

public void setName(String name)

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object
