All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, NameSpace

@Immutable
public class DefaultNameSpace
extends Object
implements NameSpace, Serializable

A domain in which names given by character strings are defined. This implementation does not support localization in order to avoid ambiguity when testing two namespaces for equality.

DefaultNameSpace can be instantiated by any of the following methods:

• DefaultNameFactory#createNameSpace(GenericName)
• DefaultNameFactory.createNameSpace(GenericName, Map)

Method Detail

isGlobal

public boolean isGlobal()

Indicates whether this namespace is a "top level" namespace. Global, or top-level namespaces are not contained within another namespace. The global namespace has no parent.

Specified by:

isGlobal in interface NameSpace

Returns:

true if this namespace is the global namespace.

name

public GenericName name()

Represents the identifier of this namespace. Namespace identifiers shall be fully-qualified names where:

name.scope().isGlobal() == true

Specified by:

name in interface NameSpace

Returns:

The identifier of this namespace.

toString

public String toString()

Returns a string representation of this namespace.

Overrides:

toString in class Object

Returns:

A string representation of this namespace.

equals

public boolean equals(Object object)

Returns true if this namespace is equal to the given object.

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

object - The object to compare with this namespace.

Returns:

true if the given object is equal to this namespace.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns a hash code value for this namespace.

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object
