Package javax.jcr

Provides interfaces and classes for the Content Repository for Java Technology.

Interface Summary

Interface	Description
Binary	A Binary object holds a JCR property value of type BINARY.
Credentials	Interface for all credentials that may be passed to the Repository.login(Credentials credentials, String workspaceName) method.
ImportUUIDBehavior	The possible actions specified by the uuidBehavior parameter in Workspace.importXML(java.lang.String, java.io.InputStream, int), Session.importXML(java.lang.String, java.io.InputStream, int), Workspace.getImportContentHandler(java.lang.String, int) and Session.getImportContentHandler(java.lang.String, int).
Item	The Item is the base interface of Node and Property.
ItemVisitor	This interface defines two signatures of the visit method; one taking a Node, the other a Property.
NamespaceRegistry	Each repository has a single, persistent namespace registry represented by the NamespaceRegistry object, accessed via Workspace.getNamespaceRegistry().
Node	The Node interface represents a node in a workspace.
NodeIterator	Allows easy iteration through a list of Nodes with nextNode as well as a skip method inherited from RangeIterator.
Property	A Property object represents the smallest granularity of content storage.
PropertyIterator	Allows easy iteration through a list of Propertys with nextProperty as well as a skip method.
RangeIterator	Extends Iterator with the skip, getSize and getPosition methods.
Repository	The entry point into the content repository.
RepositoryFactory	RepositoryFactory is a factory for Repository objects.
Session	The Session object provides read and (in level 2) write access to the content of a particular workspace in the repository.
Value	A generic holder for the value of a property.
ValueFactory	The ValueFactory object provides methods for the creation Value objects that can then be used to set properties.
Workspace	A Workspace object represents a view onto a persitent workspace within a repository.

Class Summary

Class	Description
GuestCredentials	GuestCredentials implements the Credentials interface and is used to obtain a "guest", "public" or "anonymous" session.
PropertyType	The property types supported by the JCR standard.
SimpleCredentials	SimpleCredentials implements the Credentials interface and represents simple user ID/password credentials.

Exception Summary

Exception	Description
AccessDeniedException	Exception thrown by access-related methods.
InvalidItemStateException	Exception thrown by the write methods of Node and Property and by Session.save() and Session.refresh(boolean) if an attempted change would conflict with a change to the persistent workspace made through another Session.
InvalidLifecycleTransitionException	Exception thrown by Lifecycle management-related methods.
InvalidSerializedDataException	Exception thrown by the deserialization methods of Session if the serialized data being input has an invalid format.
ItemExistsException	An exception thrown when an attempt is made to place an item in a position where another item already exists.
ItemNotFoundException	Exception thrown by methods of Item, Node and Workspace when an item is not found.
LoginException	Exception thrown by Repository.login(Credentials, String) and Session.impersonate(Credentials) if the specified credentials are invalid.
MergeException	Exception thrown by Node.merge(String srcWorkspace, boolean isDeep).
NamespaceException	Exception thrown by Session.setNamespacePrefix(String prefix, String uri) if the specified uri is not registered in the NamespaceRegistry.
NoSuchWorkspaceException	Exception thrown by Repository.login(Credentials, String) when a specific workspace is not found.
PathNotFoundException	Exception thrown when no Item exists at the specified path or when the specified path implies intermediary Nodes that do not exist.
ReferentialIntegrityException	Exception thrown on referential integrity violation.
RepositoryException	Main exception thrown by classes in this package.
UnsupportedRepositoryOperationException	Thrown by methods that are not supported by a particular implementation.
ValueFormatException	Exception thrown when an attempt is made to assign a value to a property that has an invalid format, given the type of the property.
