Constructor Detail

### Notation

    public Notation(EnterpriseConfiguration config,
                    SourceLocator locator)

  Creates a new Notation

  Parameters:
    `config` - the Configuration to which this Notation belongs
    `locator` - the location of the declaration in the schema document

Method Detail

### setNameCode

    public void setNameCode(int nameCode)

  Set the name code of the notation

  Parameters:
    `nameCode` - the NamePool code for the notation name

### getFingerprint

    public int getFingerprint()

  Get the notation name

  Returns:
    the name of the notation as a NamePool fingerprint. This combines the values of the {name} and {target namespace} properties in the schema component model.

### setNotationSystemId

    public void setNotationSystemId(String systemId)

  Set the system identifier of the notation

  Parameters:
    `systemId` - the system identifier (possibly null)\

### setNotationPublicId

    public void setNotationPublicId(String publicId)

  Set the public identifier of the notation

  Parameters:
    `publicId` - the public identifier (possibly null)\

### getNotationSystemId

    public String getNotationSystemId()

  Get the system identifier of the notation

  Returns:
    the value of the {system identifier} property (possibly null).

### getNotationPublicId

    public String getNotationPublicId()

  Get the public identifier of the notation

  Returns:
    the value of the {public identifier} property (possibly null)\

### getName

    public String getName()

  Return the local name of this Notation.

  Returns:
    the value of the {local name} property of the Notation Declaration

### getTargetNamespace

    public String getTargetNamespace()

  Return the target namespace of this Notation

  Returns:
    the value of the {target namespace} property of the Notation Declaration

### validate

    public boolean validate(SchemaCompiler compiler)

  Checks the validity of this Notation. Always returns true for this implementation.

  Specified by:
    `validate` in interface `UserSchemaComponent`
  Returns:
    true when this Schema definition is valid, otherwise false.

### fixup

    public boolean fixup(SchemaCompiler compiler)
                  throws SchemaException

  Check references from this component to other components

  Specified by:
    `fixup` in interface `UserSchemaComponent`
  Overrides:
    `fixup` in class `SchemaStructure`
  Parameters:
    `compiler` - the schema compiler
  Returns:
    true if all is well, false if errors found
  Throws:
    `SchemaException`

### elaborate

    public void elaborate(SchemaCompiler compiler)
                   throws SchemaException

  Elaborate the schema component: after reloading a serialized schema component model, this expands the component with derived information needed during validation episodes. The model is assumed to be valid.

  Specified by:
    `elaborate` in interface `UserSchemaComponent`
  Overrides:
    `elaborate` in class `SchemaStructure`
  Parameters:
    `compiler` -
  Throws:
    `SchemaException`

### serialize

    public void serialize(SchemaModelSerializer serializer)
                   throws XPathException

  Serialize the schema component

  Specified by:
    `serialize` in interface `SerializableSchemaComponent`
  Throws:
    `XPathException`
