Method Details

isRecognizedDatatype

public boolean isRecognizedDatatype(IRI datatypeUri)

Description copied from interface: DatatypeHandler

Checks if the given datatype URI is recognized by this datatype handler.

Specified by:

isRecognizedDatatype in interface DatatypeHandler

Parameters:

datatypeUri - The datatype URI to check.

Returns:

True if the datatype is syntactically valid and could be used with DatatypeHandler.verifyDatatype(String, IRI) and DatatypeHandler.normalizeDatatype(String, IRI, ValueFactory).

verifyDatatype

public boolean verifyDatatype(String literalValue,
 IRI datatypeUri)
                       throws LiteralUtilException

Description copied from interface: DatatypeHandler

Verifies that the datatype URI is valid, including a check on the structure of the literal value.

This method must only be called after verifying that DatatypeHandler.isRecognizedDatatype(IRI) returns true for the given datatype URI.

Specified by:

verifyDatatype in interface DatatypeHandler

Parameters:

literalValue - Literal value matching the given datatype URI.

datatypeUri - A datatype URI that matched with DatatypeHandler.isRecognizedDatatype(IRI)

Returns:

True if the datatype URI is recognized by this datatype handler, and it is verified to be syntactically valid.

Throws:

LiteralUtilException - If the datatype was not recognized.

normalizeDatatype

public Literal normalizeDatatype(String literalValue,
 IRI datatypeUri,
 ValueFactory valueFactory)
                          throws LiteralUtilException

Description copied from interface: DatatypeHandler

Normalize both the datatype URI and the literal value if appropriate, and use the given value factory to generate a literal matching a literal value and datatype URI.

This method must only be called after verifying that DatatypeHandler.isRecognizedDatatype(IRI) returns true for the given datatype URI, and DatatypeHandler.verifyDatatype(String, IRI) also returns true for the given datatype URI and literal value.

Specified by:

normalizeDatatype in interface DatatypeHandler

Parameters:

literalValue - Required literal value to use in the normalization process and to provide the value for the resulting literal.

datatypeUri - The datatype URI which is to be normalized. This URI is available in normalized form from the result using Literal.getDatatype().

valueFactory - The ValueFactory to use to create the result literal.

Returns:

A Literal containing the normalized literal value and datatype URI.

Throws:

LiteralUtilException - If the datatype URI was not recognized or verified, or the literal value could not be normalized due to an error.

getKey

public String getKey()

Description copied from interface: DatatypeHandler

A unique key for this datatype handler to identify it in the DatatypeHandlerRegistry.

Specified by:

getKey in interface DatatypeHandler

Returns:

A unique string key.
