$checked= 'true'
Subclasses are responsible for setting this value to false if we'd need to investigate this condition (usually because a child element has been added that is a subclass of DataType).

- \DataType::$$checked

string
$classname= 'null'
String to hold the path to the TokenReader
nullDetails- Type

array
$parameters= 'array()'

Methods

circularReference(
)
:
voidCreates an exception that indicates the user has generated a loop of data types referencing each other.
Inherited from: \DataType::circularReference()
configureTokenReader(
\TokenReader $reader
)
:
voidConfigures a TokenReader with the parameters passed to the TokenSource.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| $reader | \TokenReader |

createParam(
)
:
\ParameterCreate nested tag.
Uses standard name/value Parameter class.

dieOnCircularReference(
$stk, $p
)
:
voidCheck to see whether any DataType we hold references to is included in the Stack (which holds all DataType instances that directly or indirectly reference this instance, including this instance itself).
Inherited from: \DataType::dieOnCircularReference()If one is included, throw a BuildException created by circularReference
This implementation is appropriate only for a DataType that cannot hold other DataTypes as children.
The general contract of this method is that it shouldn't do anything if checked is true and set it to true on exit.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| $stk | ||
| $p |

getCheckedRef(
$requiredClass, $dataTypeName

| $requiredClass | ||
| $dataTypeName |

getClassname(
)
:
stringReturns the qualified classname (dot-path) to use for handling token replacement.

| string |

getDescription(
)
:
voidReturn the description for the current data type.

)
:

- public

load(
)
:
voidThis method is called to load the sources from the reader into the buffer of the source.

)
:
voidCreates an exception that indicates that this XML element must not have child elements if the refid attribute is set.
Inherited from: \DataType::noChildrenAllowed()

setDescription(
$desc

setRefid(
\Reference $r

:
void
Subclasses may need to check whether any other attributes have been set as well or child elements have been created and thus override this method. if they do they must call parent::setRefid()
