Method Detail

getType

public Class getType()

Description copied from interface: DataType

The object type of the source object to transform.

Specified by:

getType in interface DataType<T>

Returns:

the class object of the source object. This must not be null

getMimeType

public String getMimeType()

Description copied from interface: DataType

The mime type of the the source object to transform.

Specified by:

getMimeType in interface DataType<T>

Returns:

the mime type of the source object. This may be null if the mime type is not known, or if the mime type is not needed

setMimeType

public void setMimeType(String mimeType)

Description copied from interface: DataType

The mime type of the the source object to transform.

Specified by:

setMimeType in interface DataType<T>

Parameters:

mimeType - the mime type of the source object. This may be null if the mime type is not known, or if the mime type is not needed

getEncoding

public String getEncoding()

Description copied from interface: DataType

The encoding for the object to transform

Specified by:

getEncoding in interface DataType<T>

setEncoding

public void setEncoding(String encoding)

Description copied from interface: DataType

The encoding for the object to transform

Specified by:

setEncoding in interface DataType<T>

isCompatibleWith

public boolean isCompatibleWith(DataType dataType)

Description copied from interface: DataType

Used to determine if this data type is compatible with the data type passed in. This checks to see if the mime types are equal and whether the Java types are assignable

Specified by:

isCompatibleWith in interface DataType<T>

Parameters:

dataType - the dataType object to compare with

Returns:

true if the mime types are the same and this type can be assigned to the dataType.type.

equals

public boolean equals(Object o)

Overrides:

equals in class Object

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object

cloneDataType

public DataType cloneDataType()

Description copied from interface: DataType

Create an exact copy of this datatype

Specified by:

cloneDataType in interface DataType<T>
