Interface ParameterConversion

All Known Implementing Classes:

DictListParameterConversion, StringParameterConversion

public interface ParameterConversion

A ParameterConversion to bridge between RDF and native Java class representation of data.

A ParameterConversion is implicitly tied to a Java type which it expects objects passed to toRDF(Object) to be instances of and which objects returned from fromRDF(RDFNode) are instances of.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
Object	fromRDF(org.apache.jena.rdf.model.RDFNode node)	Convert the given node to an equal object representation.
org.apache.jena.rdf.model.RDFNode	toRDF(Object object)	Convert the given object to an equal RDF representation.

Method Detail

toRDF

org.apache.jena.rdf.model.RDFNode toRDF(Object object)

Convert the given object to an equal RDF representation.

Parameters:

object - an object expected to be instance of the type that this ParameterConversion is intended for

Returns:

the RDF representation of the given object

fromRDF

Object fromRDF(org.apache.jena.rdf.model.RDFNode node)

Convert the given node to an equal object representation.

Parameters:

node - the RDF data to be converted to an instance of the type that this ParameterConversion is intended for

Returns:

the object representation of the given node
