Parameters:

caseInsensitive - when true, enumerated type lookups will be performed in a case insensitive manner.

setFailOnFirstError

public void setFailOnFirstError(boolean failOnFirstError)

If true, the source generator will fail on the first error encountered. Otherwise, the source generator will continue on certain errors.

Parameters:

failOnFirstError - if true, the source generator will fail on the first error encountered.

public void setSuppressNonFatalWarnings(boolean suppress)

Sets whether or not to suppress non-fatal warnings encountered during source generation.

Parameters:

suppress - true if non-fatal warnings should be suppressed.

setVerbose

public void setVerbose(boolean verbose)

Sets whether or not the source code generator prints additional messages during generating source code

Parameters:

verbose - a boolean, when true indicates to print additional messages

setDescriptorCreation

public void setDescriptorCreation(boolean createDescriptors)

Sets whether or not to create ClassDescriptors for the generated classes. By default, descriptors are generated.

Parameters:

createDescriptors - a boolean, when true indicates to generated ClassDescriptors

setDestDir

public void setDestDir(java.lang.String destDir)

Sets the destination directory.

Parameters:

destDir - the destination directory.

setCreateMarshalMethods

public void setCreateMarshalMethods(boolean createMarshalMethods)

Sets whether or not to create the XML marshalling framework specific methods (marshall, unmarshall, validate) in the generated classes. By default, these methods are generated.

Parameters:

createMarshalMethods - a boolean, when true indicates to generated the marshalling framework methods

setGenerateImportedSchemas

public void setGenerateImportedSchemas(boolean generate)

Sets whether or not to generate Java sources for imported XML Schema. By default Java sources for imported XML schemas are not generated.

Parameters:

generate - true to generate the java classes for the imported XML Schema

setGenerateMappingFile

public void setGenerateMappingFile(boolean generateMapping)

Sets whether or not a mapping file should be generated, this is false by default. Note that this will only be used when generation of descriptors has been disabled.

Parameters:

generateMapping - a flag that indicates whether or not a mapping file should be generated.

setTestable

public void setTestable(boolean testable)

Sets whether or not to implement CastorTestable

Parameters:

testable - a boolean, when true indicates to implement CastorTestable

setBinding

public void setBinding(ExtendedBinding binding)

Sets the binding to use with this instance of the SourceGenerator.

Parameters:

binding - the binding to use, null indicates that the default binding will be used.

setBinding

public void setBinding(java.lang.String fileName)

Sets the binding to use given the path name of a Castor Binding File.

Parameters:

fileName - the file that represents a Binding

setBinding

public void setBinding(org.xml.sax.InputSource source)

Sets the binding to use given an InputSource identifying a Castor Binding File.

Parameters:

source - an InputSource identifying a Castor Binding File.

setLineSeparator

public void setLineSeparator(java.lang.String lineSeparator)

Sets the line separator to use when printing the source code.

Note:This can be any string, so be careful. I recommend either using the default or using one of the following:

 windows systems use: "\r\n"
 unix systems use: "\n"
 mac systems use: "\r"
 

Parameters:

lineSeparator - the line separator to use when printing the source code. This method is useful if you are generating source on one platform, but will be compiling the source on a different platform.

mappingSchemaElement2Java

public boolean mappingSchemaElement2Java()

Tests the org.exolab.castor.builder.javaclassmapping property for the 'element' value.

Overrides:

mappingSchemaElement2Java in class BuilderConfiguration

True if the Source Generator is mapping schema elements to Java classes.

mappingSchemaType2Java

public boolean mappingSchemaType2Java()

Tests the org.exolab.castor.builder.javaclassmapping property for the 'type' value.

Overrides:

mappingSchemaType2Java in class BuilderConfiguration

Returns:

True if the Source Generator is mapping schema types to Java classes.

generateSource

public void generateSource(java.lang.String filename,
                  java.lang.String packageName)
                    throws java.io.IOException

Creates Java Source code (Object model) for the given XML Schema. If the file exists, opens a FileReader and passes control to generateSource(InputSource, String).

Parameters:

filename - the full path to the XML Schema definition

packageName - the package for the generated source files

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an IOException occurs writing the new source files

generateSource

public void generateSource(java.io.Reader reader,
                  java.lang.String packageName)
                    throws java.io.IOException

Creates Java Source code (Object model) for the given XML Schema. This method just passes control to generateSource(InputSource, String).

Parameters:

reader - the Reader with which to read the XML Schema definition. The caller should close the reader, since thie method will not do so.

packageName - the package for the generated source files

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an IOException occurs writing the new source files

generateSource

public void generateSource(org.xml.sax.InputSource source,
                  java.lang.String packageName)
                    throws java.io.IOException

Creates Java Source code (Object model) for the given XML Schema. Parses the schema provided by the InputSource and then calls generateSource(Schema, String) to actually generate the source.

Parameters:

source - - the InputSource representing the XML schema.

packageName - the package for the generated source files

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if an IOException occurs writing the new source files

generateSource

public void generateSource(Schema schema,
                  java.lang.String packageName)
                    throws java.io.IOException

Creates Java Source code (Object model) for the given XML Schema. Convenience methods exist if you don't have a Schema already parsed.

Parameters:

schema - the XML schema to generate the Java sources for.

packageName - the package for the generated source files.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - if this Exception occurs while generating source

See Also:

to provide the schema filename, to provide a Reader for the schema, to provide an InputSource for the schema

toURIRepresentation

public static java.lang.String toURIRepresentation(java.lang.String path)

Returns a string which is the URI of a file.

• file:///DOSpath
• file://UnixPath

No validation is done to check whether the file exists or not. This method will be no longer used when the JDK URL.toString() is fixed.

Parameters:

path - The absolute path of the file.

Returns:

A string representing the URI of the file.

main

public static void main(java.lang.String[] args)

Deprecated. Please use SourceGeneratorMain.main(String[])

For backwards compability, when we are called as the main() routine, delegate the command-line usage to the proper class.

Parameters:

args - our command line arguments.
