Application Component: CA-UI5-COR

This class is an abstract base class for all OData primitive types (see OData V4 Edm Types and OData V2 Edm Types ). All subtypes implement the interface of sap.ui.model.SimpleType. That means they implement next to the constructor:

All ODataTypes are immutable. All format options and constraints are given to the constructor, they cannot be modified later.

All ODataTypes use a locale-specific message when throwing an error caused by invalid user input (e.g. if Double.parseValue cannot parse the given value to a number, or if any type's validateValue gets a null, but the constraint nullable is false).


Constructor

Constructor for a new ODataType.

new sap.ui.model.odata.type.ODataType(oFormatOptions?, oConstraints?)
Param Type Default Value Description
oFormatOptions? object

type-specific format options; see subtypes

oConstraints? object

type-specific constraints (e.g. oConstraints.nullable), see subtypes


Methods Overview

Method Description
sap.ui.model.odata.type.ODataType.extend

Creates a new subclass of class sap.ui.model.odata.type.ODataType with name sClassName and enriches it with the information contained in oClassInfo.

oClassInfo might contain the same kind of information as described in sap.ui.model.SimpleType.extend.

sap.ui.model.odata.type.ODataType.getMetadata

Returns a metadata object for class sap.ui.model.odata.type.ODataType.

sap.ui.model.odata.type.ODataType.extend

Creates a new subclass of class sap.ui.model.odata.type.ODataType with name sClassName and enriches it with the information contained in oClassInfo.

oClassInfo might contain the same kind of information as described in sap.ui.model.SimpleType.extend.

Param Type DefaultValue Description
sClassName string

Name of the class being created

oClassInfo object

Object literal with information about the class

FNMetaImpl function

Constructor function for the metadata object; if not given, it defaults to the metadata implementation used by this class

sap.ui.model.odata.type.ODataType.getMetadata

Returns a metadata object for class sap.ui.model.odata.type.ODataType.
