All Known Subinterfaces:

OracleNodeTypeManager

public interface NodeTypeManager

Allows for the retrieval of node types. Accessed via Workspace.getNodeTypeManager().

Method Summary

NodeTypeIterator	getAllNodeTypes() Returns an iterator over all available node types (primary and mixin).
NodeTypeIterator	getMixinNodeTypes() Returns an iterator over all available mixin node types.
NodeType	getNodeType(java.lang.String nodeTypeName) Returns the named node type.
NodeTypeIterator	getPrimaryNodeTypes() Returns an iterator over all available primary node types.

Method Detail

getNodeType

NodeType getNodeType(java.lang.String nodeTypeName)
                     throws NoSuchNodeTypeException,
                            RepositoryException

Returns the named node type.

Throws a NoSuchNodeTypeException if a node type by that name does not exist.

Throws a RepositoryException if another error occurs.

Parameters:

nodeTypeName - the name of an existing node type.

Returns:

A NodeType object.

Throws:

NoSuchNodeTypeException - if no node type by the given name exists.

RepositoryException - if another error occurs.

getAllNodeTypes

NodeTypeIterator getAllNodeTypes()
                                 throws RepositoryException

Returns an iterator over all available node types (primary and mixin).

Returns:

An NodeTypeIterator.

Throws:

RepositoryException - if an error occurs.

getPrimaryNodeTypes

NodeTypeIterator getPrimaryNodeTypes()
                                     throws RepositoryException

Returns an iterator over all available primary node types.

Returns:

An NodeTypeIterator.

Throws:

RepositoryException - if an error occurs.

getMixinNodeTypes

NodeTypeIterator getMixinNodeTypes()
                                   throws RepositoryException

Returns an iterator over all available mixin node types. If none are available, an empty iterator is returned.

Returns:

An NodeTypeIterator.

Throws:

RepositoryException - if an error occurs.
