Method Detail

getValueString

public static String getValueString(NodeData nodeData)

Same as getValueString(nd, dateFormat) but using the users short date format.

getValueString

public static String getValueString(NodeData nodeData,
                                    String dateFormat)

Returns a String representation of the value. In case of a binary the path including filename and extension is returned

Parameters:

nodeData -

dateFormat - date format to use in the case it is a date

Returns:

getValueString

public static String getValueString(javax.jcr.Value value,
                                    String dateFormat)

Same as value.getString(), but using custom date format.

inheritString

public static String inheritString(Content node,
                                   String name)
                            throws javax.jcr.RepositoryException

Inherit a value. Uses the string value. The "inherit" means that the method will look for the value in the content itself and if not found it will go up in the tree and try to locate value in one of the parents of the content until reaching the root. The first value found while traversing the tree way up is the one that will be returned.

Parameters:

node - Node expected to define or inherit the searched node value.

name - Name of the nodeData.

Throws:

javax.jcr.RepositoryException

inheritString

public static String inheritString(Content node,
                                   String name,

                            throws javax.jcr.RepositoryException

Inherit a value. You can provide a default value if not found

Throws:

javax.jcr.RepositoryException

inherit
