Method Details

values

public static DwcTerm[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared.

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum class, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static DwcTerm valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this class with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this class. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum class has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

simpleName

public String simpleName()

The simple term name without a namespace. For example scientificName.

Specified by:

simpleName in interface Term

Returns:

simple term name

alternativeNames

public String[] alternativeNames()

Array of alternative simple names in use for the term. Often based on older dwc versions.

Specified by:

alternativeNames in interface AlternativeNames

Returns:

simple term name

getGroup

public String getGroup()

The optional group the term is grouped in. For example Taxon, Identification, etc.

isClass

public boolean isClass()

Description copied from interface: Term

Informs if a term is generally used as a class term, i.e. defining rowTypes not properties. For example VernacularName, Taxon or Occurrence

Specified by:

isClass in interface Term

Returns:

true if the dwc term is defining a class instead of a property, e.g. Taxon

listByGroup

public static List<DwcTerm> listByGroup(String group)

List all terms that belong to a given group.

Parameters:

group - the group to list terms for

Returns:

the list of dwc terms in the given group

prefix

public String prefix()

Description copied from interface: Term

A unique standard prefix representing the namespace. For example dwc.

Specified by:

prefix in interface Term

namespace

public URI namespace()

Description copied from interface: Term

The namespace the terms are in. Default implementations here expect the namespace to end with a slash.

Specified by:

namespace in interface Term

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Enum<DwcTerm>
