since 8.4 for public use, this is an internal implementation class subject to change

A data model is a concrete representation of a schema.

The schema describe the data structure and the data model object is storing concrete values according to that structure.

When the user modifies a data structure the modified fields are tracked so that at any time you can query about the dirty state of the data model by using the isDirty() and isDirty(String) methods.

The data model can be modified only through the set methods:

• setData(String, Object)
• setMap(Map)

This is ensuring the dirty state will be correctly updated

This is the reason why the getMap() method is returning a read only map.

Data structure are usually part of a composite model as the DocumentModel.

Method Detail

getSchema

String getSchema()

Deprecated.

Returns:

the data model schema

setData

void setData(String key,
             Object value)

PropertyException

getMap

Map<String,Object> getMap()
                         throws PropertyException

Deprecated.

Gets all the fields set in this data model.

It is not guaranteed that the returned map will contain all the fields defined by the schema. It may even be empty.

The returned map is null if the data model was not yet loaded.

Returns:

a read only map containing actual data in this object

Throws:

PropertyException

setMap

void setMap(Map<String,Object> data)
     throws PropertyException

Deprecated.

Sets several field at once.

Parameters:

data - the fields to set as a map

Throws:

PropertyException

isDirty

boolean isDirty()

Deprecated.

Tests whether or not this data model is dirty (i.e. it was changed by the client).

Returns:

true if the data model is dirty, false otherwise

isDirty

boolean isDirty(String name)
         throws PropertyNotFoundException

Deprecated.

Tests whether or not the specified field from this data model is dirty.

Parameters:

name - the field name to tests

Returns:

true if the field is dirty, false otherwise

Throws:

PropertyNotFoundException

setDirty

void setDirty(String name)
       throws PropertyNotFoundException

Deprecated.

Marks the specified field from this data model as dirty.

Parameters:

name - the field name to be dirty

Throws:

PropertyNotFoundException

getDirtyFields

Collection<String> getDirtyFields()

Deprecated.

Gets the collection of the dirty fields in this data model.

Returns:

the dirty fields or null if there are no dirty fields

getValue

Object getValue(String path)
         throws PropertyException

Deprecated.

Gets a value given its path.

The path is a subset of XPath: / and [] are supported.

Parameters:

path - the property path

Throws:

PropertyException

setValue
