public interface IURRepresentation

An IURRepresentationInterface is an object that acts as a representation for data pertaining to a URI. A representation is fundamentally immutable from its API. It exhibits a IURMeta which gives meta data such as typing and validity. It also exhibits a set (usually with one value) of other application interfaces. This interfaces are dependent upon what the representation is a representation for.

Method Summary

IURAspect	getAspect(java.lang.Class aAspectClass) Return the first aspect which implements the given interface class
java.util.Collection	getAspects() Return a collection of all unique aspects that this representation exhibits
IURMeta	getMeta() Return the meta for this representation
boolean	hasAspect(java.lang.Class aAspectClass) Return true if this representation can return an aspect which implements the given interface

Method Detail

Parameters:

aAspectClass - a IURAspect class object for an aspect to test for

Returns:

true if any of the aspects which this representation holds implement the given interface

getAspect

IURAspect getAspect(java.lang.Class aAspectClass)
