Method Detail

values

public static ArgType[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (ArgType c : ArgType.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static ArgType valueOf(java.lang.String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

java.lang.NullPointerException - if the argument is null

getID

public java.lang.String getID()

Description copied from interface: IHasID

Returns the id of the type, as defined in the xsd file. Will never be null or empty.

Specified by:

getID in interface IHasID

Returns:

the id of the type

getSubclassType

public java.lang.Class<? extends ISemanticArgType> getSubclassType()

Returns the associated subclass type for this argument type.

Returns:

the associated subclass type for this argument type

Since:

JVerbnet 1.0.0

getById

public static ArgType getById(java.lang.String id)

Returns the object corresponding to the specified xsd name. The id is matched to values without regard to case. If no value has the specified id, the method returns null. If the VerbnetTypes.isPrintingIdWarnings() flag is set, the method will print a warning to standard out if there is no value with the specified id, or if the specified id is not exactly identical to the value's id (i.e., differs in case).

Parameters:

id - the id of the type value as found in the xsd file and in the xml data files.

Returns:

the type corresponding to the specified xsd name, or null if none

Throws:

java.lang.NullPointerException - if the id is null

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the id is empty or all whitespace
