Item is a common abstraction of Property, Reference and Container.

This is supposed to be a superclass for all items. Items are things that can appear in containers, which generally means only a property, reference and container itself. Therefore this is in fact superclass for those three definitions.

  • Method Details

    • getDefinition

      D getDefinition()
      Returns applicable definition.

      May return null if no definition is applicable or the definition is not known.

      getDefinition in interface Itemable
      Returns:
      applicable definition
    • hasCompleteDefinition

      default boolean hasCompleteDefinition()
      Returns true if this item and all contained items have definitions.
    • getElementName

      ItemName getElementName()
      Returns the name of the item.

      The name is a QName. It uniquely defines an item.

      The name may be null, but such an item will not work.

      The name is the QName of XML element in the XML representation.

      Specified by:
      getElementName in interface Itemable
      Returns:
      item name TODO consider making element name obligatory
    • setElementName

      void setElementName(QName elementName)
      Sets the name of the item.

      The name is a QName. It uniquely defines an item.

      The name may be null, but such an item will not work.

      The name is the QName of XML element in the XML representation.

      Parameters:
      elementName - the name to set TODO consider removing this method
    • setDefinition

      void setDefinition(@Nullable D definition)
      Sets applicable item definition.
      Parameters:
      definition - the definition to set TODO consider removing this method
    • getDisplayName

      default String getDisplayName()
      Returns a display name for the item.

      Returns null if the display name cannot be determined.

      The display name is fetched from the definition. If no definition (schema) is available, the display name will not be returned.

      Returns:
      display name for the item
    • getHelp

      default String getHelp()
      Returns help message defined for the item.

      Returns null if the help message cannot be determined.

      The help message is fetched from the definition. If no definition (schema) is available, the help message will not be returned.

      Returns:
      help message for the item
    • isIncomplete

      boolean isIncomplete()
      Flag that indicates incomplete item. If set to true then the values in this item are not complete. If this flag is true then it can be assumed that the object that this item represents has at least one value. This is a method how to indicate that the item really has some values, but are not here. This may be used for variety of purposes. It may indicate that the account has a password, but the password value is not revealed. This may indicate that a user has a photo, but the photo was not requested and therefore is not returned. This may be used to indicate that only part of the attribute values were returned from the search. And so on.
    • setIncomplete

      void setIncomplete(boolean incomplete)
      Flags the item as incomplete.
      Parameters:
      incomplete - The new value
      See Also:
    • getParent

      @Nullable @Nullable PrismContainerValue<?> getParent()
      Returns the parent of this item (if exists). Currently this has to be a PrismContainerValue.
      Returns:
      The parent if exists
    • setParent

      void setParent(@Nullable @Nullable PrismContainerValue<?> parentValue)
      Sets the parent of this item.
      Parameters:
      parentValue - The new parent
    • getPath

      @NotNull @NotNull ItemPath getPath()
      Returns the path of this item (sequence of names from the "root" container or similar object to this item). Note that if the containing object is a delta (usually a container delta), then the path
      Specified by:
      getPath in interface Itemable
      Returns:
      the path
    • getUserData

      @NotNull @NotNull Map<String,Object> getUserData()
      Returns the "user data", a map that allows attaching arbitrary named data to this item.
      Returns:
      the user data map
    • getUserData

      <T> T getUserData(String key)
      Returns the user data for the given key (name).
    • setUserData

      void setUserData(String key, Object value)
      Sets the user data for the given key (name).
    • getValues

      @NotNull @NotNull List<V> getValues()
      Returns the values for this item. Although the ordering of this values is not important, and each value should be present at most once, we currently return them as a list instead of a set. TODO reconsider this
    • valuesStream

      default Stream<V> valuesStream()
    • size

      default int size()
      Returns the number of values for this item.
    • getAnyValue

      default V getAnyValue()
      Returns any of the values. Usually called when we are quite confident that there is only a single value; or we don't care which of the values we get. Does not create values if there are none.
    • getValue

      V getValue()
      Returns the value, if there is only one. Throws exception if there are more values. If there is no value, this method either: - returns null (for properties) - throws an exception (for items that can hold multiple values) - creates an empty value (for containers and references). TODO think again whether getOrCreateValue would not be better
    • getAnyValue

      default V getAnyValue(@NotNull @NotNull ValueSelector<V> selector)
      Returns a value matching given selector (or null if none exists).
    • getRealValue

      @Nullable @Nullable Object getRealValue()
      Returns the "real value" (content) of this item: - value contained in PrismPropertyValue - Referencable in PrismReferenceValue - Containerable in PrismContainerValue - Objectable in PrismObjectValue Note that the real value can contain operational items. It can also contain container IDs (although they are not considered to be part of the real value). It does not contain information about item element name nor other metadata like origin, definition, etc. (Although e.g. Containerable can be converted back into PrismContainerValue that can be used to retrieve this information.)
    • getRealValue

      <X> X getRealValue(Class<X> type)
      Type override, also for compatibility.
    • getRealValuesArray

      <X> X[] getRealValuesArray(Class<X> type)
      Type override, also for compatibility.
    • getRealValues

      @NotNull @NotNull Collection<?> getRealValues()
      Returns (potentially empty) collection of "real values".

      Returns true if the item contains 0 or 1 values and (by definition) is not multivalued.
    • isSingleValueByDefinition

      default boolean isSingleValueByDefinition()
    • add

      default boolean add(@NotNull V newValue) throws SchemaException
      Adds a given value, overwriting existing one. It compares values using DEFAULT_FOR_EQUALS (DATA) strategy, so it e.g. takes value metadata differences into account. It is because this method is used during parsing, internal computations (typically using generated beans), and similar situations where we expect little sophistication when it comes to value comparison. The less surprises the better.
      Throws:
      SchemaException
    • add

      boolean add(@NotNull V newValue, @NotNull @NotNull EquivalenceStrategy strategy) throws SchemaException
      Adds a value, overwriting existing one(s). Uses specified equivalence strategy.
      Returns:
      true if this item changed as a result of the call. This is either during real value addition or during overwriting existing value with a different one. The "difference" is taken using the DEFAULT_FOR_EQUALS (DATA) equivalence strategy.
      Throws:
      SchemaException
    • addIgnoringEquivalents

      void addIgnoringEquivalents(@NotNull V newValue) throws SchemaException
      Adds a value, not looking for equivalent values. (This means that the new value is always added, if possible.) Note that we check the cardinality of the item according to its definition, i.e. we do not allow single-valued item to contain more than one value.
      Throws:
      SchemaException
    • addAll

      default boolean addAll(Collection<V> newValues) throws SchemaException
      Adds given values, with the same semantics as repeated add(..) calls.
      Returns:
      true if this item changed as a result of the call (i.e. if at least one value was really added)
      Throws:
      SchemaException
    • addAll

      boolean addAll(Collection<V> newValues, @NotNull @NotNull EquivalenceStrategy strategy) throws SchemaException
      Adds given values, with the same semantics as repeated add(..) calls. For equality testing uses given strategy.
      Returns:
      true if this item changed as a result of the call (i.e. if at least one value was really added)
      Throws:
      SchemaException
    • remove

      default boolean remove(V value)
      Removes values equivalent to given value from the item. Note we use REAL_VALUE_CONSIDER_DIFFERENT_IDS strategy that ignores value metadata and operational data. This may or may not be good! TODO reconsider
    • remove

      boolean remove(V value, @NotNull @NotNull EquivalenceStrategy strategy)
      Removes values equivalent to given value from the item; under specified equivalence strategy OR when values represent the same value via "representsSameValue(.., lax=false)" method.
      Returns:
      true if this item changed as a result of the call (i.e. if at least one value was really removed)
    • removeIf

      default void removeIf(Predicate<V> predicate)
    • addRespectingMetadataAndCloning

      void addRespectingMetadataAndCloning(V value, @NotNull @NotNull EquivalenceStrategy strategy, EquivalenceStrategy metadataEquivalenceStrategy) throws SchemaException
      Adds a value, respecting the metadata. I.e. if equivalent value exists, the metadata are merged. (Replacing metadata of colliding provenance, adding all the others.) If a value is to be added as a whole, it is cloned.
      Throws:
      SchemaException
    • removeRespectingMetadata

      void removeRespectingMetadata(V value, @NotNull @NotNull EquivalenceStrategy strategy, EquivalenceStrategy metadataEquivalenceStrategy)
      Removes values equivalent to given value from the item; under specified equivalence strategy OR when values represent the same value via "representsSameValue(.., lax=false)" method. Respects metadata, i.e. if value to be removed has metadata specified, this method removes only particular metadata. Only if this means that all metadata are gone, then the value is deleted.
    • removeAll

      boolean removeAll(Collection<V> values, @NotNull @NotNull EquivalenceStrategy strategy)
      Removes all given values from the item. It is basically a shortcut for repeated remove(PrismValue, EquivalenceStrategy) call.
      Returns:
      true if this item changed as a result of the call (i.e. if at least one value was really removed)
    • clear

      void clear()
      Removes all values from the item.
    • replaceAll

      void replaceAll(Collection<V> newValues, @NotNull @NotNull EquivalenceStrategy strategy) throws SchemaException

      default boolean contains(@NotNull V value, @NotNull @NotNull EquivalenceStrategy strategy)
      Returns:
      true if the item contains a given value under specified equivalence strategy Note that the "sameness" (ID-only value matching) is NOT considered here.

      Returns true is at least one of the values is raw.
    • isEmpty

      default boolean isEmpty()
      Normally the same as hasNoValues(). But a container is considered empty also if all its values (PCVs) are empty. This is a bit strange and should be revisited.

      Returns all values corresponding to the provided path. The path may contain ambiguous segments (e.g. `assignment/targetRef` when there are more assignments). Limitations: . The path can contain only name segments and the "identifier" (`#`) segment - at least for now. No ID segments. . There are no guarantees about duplicate values. They may or may not be present in the returned collections. . The caller should not modify the returned collection in any way. Note to implementors: Please take care about the performance of this method.
    • getAllValues

    • getAllItems

      @NotNull @NotNull Collection<Item<?,?>> getAllItems(@NotNull @NotNull ItemPath path)
      Returns all items corresponding to the provided path. This is an analogue to getAllValues(ItemPath). The only difference here is that `#` segment is not allowed, as it does not correspond to an item. (Shouldn't these methods be rather called findAllValues/findAllItems?)

      PrismContext getPrismContextLocal()
    • setPrismContext

      @Deprecated void setPrismContext(PrismContext prismContext)
