Namespaces

public final class Namespaces
extends Static

Lists some namespaces URLs used by JAXB when (un)marshalling.

Warning: string constants in this class may change in any SIS version. Those constants are made available for applications who wish to use the same URLs than SIS in their own JAXB annotations. Note that applications using those constants will have their URLs determined by the SIS version available at compile-time, not runtime, because the javac compiler inlines string constants.

The following table lists some URLs, their usual prefix, and the SIS versions when each URL changed.

Method Details

getPreferredPrefix

public static String getPreferredPrefix(String namespace,
 String defaultValue)

Returns the preferred prefix for the given namespace URI.

Parameters:

namespace - the namespace URI for which the prefix needs to be found. Cannot be null.

default­Value - the default prefix to return if the given namespace is not recognized, or null.

Returns:

the prefix inferred from the namespace URI, or null if the given namespace is unrecognized and the default­Value is null.

guessForType

public static String guessForType(String type)

Guesses the namespace for a type of the given ISO name. The argument given to this method must be a class name defined by ISO 19115 or other standards to be added in the future. Those ISO class names usually start with a two letter prefix, e.g. "CI" in CI_Citation.

This method uses heuristic rules, first looking at the prefix, then the rest of the name in case of ambiguity. A namespace is returned on a best effort basis only; this method may or may not check the full name, and values returned by this method may change in future SIS versions (e.g. when new standards become supported by SIS or when existing standards are upgraded). This method should be used in last resort only, when this information cannot be obtained easily in a more reliable way.

Parameters:

type - a class name defined by ISO 19115 or related standards (e.g. "CI_Citation".

Returns:

a possible namespace for the given type, or null if unknown.
