In order to use methods that accept a Value object the application needs a way to produce such objects. This is done by using the methods of the ValueFactory object, which is acquired through Session.getValueFactory() (see 7.1 Writing Repository Content). ValueFactory provides the following methods:

createValue(String value) Returns a Value object of PropertyType.STRING with the specified value. |

createValue(String value, int type) Returns a Value object of the PropertyType specified by type with the specified value. A ValueFormatException is thrown if the specified value cannot be converted to the specified type. |

createValue(long value) Returns a Value object of PropertyType.LONG with the specified value. |
|

createValue(double value) Returns a Value object of PropertyType.DOUBLE with the specified value. |

createValue(InputStream value) Returns a Value object of PropertyType.BINARY with a value consisting of the content of the specified InputStream. |

createValue(Node value) Returns a Value object of PropertyType.REFERENCE that holds the UUID of the specified Node. This Value object can then be used to set a property that will be a reference to that Node. A RepositoryException is thrown if the specified Node is not referenceable, the current Session is no longer active, or another error occurs. |
