All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Emptiable, Lenient­Comparable, Identified­Object, Responsible­Party

public class DefaultResponsibleParty
extends DefaultResponsibility
implements ResponsibleParty

Identification of, and means of communication with, person(s) and organizations associated with the dataset. The following properties are mandatory or conditional (i.e. mandatory under some circumstances) in a well-formed metadata according ISO 19115:

CI_Responsible­Party ├─role…………………………… Function performed by the responsible party. └─party………………………… Information about the parties. └─name………………… Name of the party.

Upcoming API change — deprecation
As of ISO 19115:2014, the Responsible­Party type has been replaced by Responsibility to allow more flexible associations of individuals, organisations, and roles. This Responsible­Party interface may be deprecated in GeoAPI 4.0.

Since:

0.3

Constructor Details

DefaultResponsibleParty

public DefaultResponsibleParty()

Constructs an initially empty responsible party.

DefaultResponsibleParty

public DefaultResponsibleParty(Role role)

Constructs a responsibility party with the given role.

Parameters:

role - the function performed by the responsible party, or null.

DefaultResponsibleParty

public DefaultResponsibleParty(DefaultResponsibility object)

Constructs a new instance initialized with the values from the specified metadata object. This is a shallow copy constructor, because the other metadata contained in the given object are not recursively copied.

Parameters:

object - the metadata to copy values from, or null if none.

DefaultResponsibleParty

public DefaultResponsibleParty(ResponsibleParty object)

Constructs a new instance initialized with the values from the specified metadata object. This is a shallow copy constructor, since the other metadata contained in the given object are not recursively copied.

Parameters:

object - The metadata to copy values from, or null if none.

See Also:

• cast­Or­Copy(Responsible­Party)

Method Details

castOrCopy

public static DefaultResponsibleParty castOrCopy(ResponsibleParty object)

Returns a SIS metadata implementation with the values of the given arbitrary implementation. This method performs the first applicable action in the following choices:

• If the given object is null, then this method returns null.
• Otherwise if the given object is already an instance of Default­Responsible­Party, then it is returned unchanged.
• Otherwise a new Default­Responsible­Party instance is created using the copy constructor and returned. Note that this is a shallow copy operation, because the other metadata contained in the given object are not recursively copied.

Parameters:

object - the object to get as a SIS implementation, or null if none.

Returns:

a SIS implementation containing the values of the given object (may be the given object itself), or null if the argument was null.
