parentNodeTypeNames -

name -

type -

multiValued -

Returns:

Throws:

NoSuchNodeTypeException

getQPropertyDefinition

QPropertyDefinition getQPropertyDefinition(Name[] parentNodeTypeNames,
                                           Name name,
                                           int type)

Returns the applicable property definition for a property with the specified name and type. The multiValued flag is not taken into account in the selection algorithm. Other than getQPropertyDefinition(Name[], Name, int, boolean) this method does not take the multiValued flag into account in the selection algorithm. If there more than one applicable definitions then the following rules are applied:

• named definitions are preferred to residual definitions
• definitions with specific required type are preferred to definitions with required type UNDEFINED
• single-value definitions are preferred to multiple-value definitions

Parameters:

parentNodeTypeNames -

name -

type -

Returns:

Throws:

ConstraintViolationException - if no applicable property definition could be found

NoSuchNodeTypeException
