# Class DefaultTelephone

DefaultTelephone

All Implemented Interfaces:
  `Serializable, Emptiable, LenientComparable, IdentifiedObject, Telephone`

public class DefaultTelephone extends ISOMetadata implements Telephone
Telephone numbers for contacting the responsible individual or organization. The following property is mandatory in a well-formed metadata according ISO 19115:
`CI_Telephone` `└─number……` Telephone number by which individuals can contact responsible organisation or individual.

## Differences between versions 2003 and 2014 of ISO 19115

For any contact having more than one telephone number, the way to organize the information changed significantly between the two versions of ISO standard:

- In ISO 19115:2003, each `Contact` had only one `Telephone` instance, but that instance could have an arbitrary number of "voice" and "facsimile" numbers. The methods (now deprecated) were `DefaultContact​.getPhone()`, `getVoices()` and `getFacsimiles()`.
- In ISO 19115:2014, each `Contact` has an arbitrary number of `Telephone` instances, and each telephone has exactly one number. The new methods are `DefaultContact​.getPhones()`, `getNumber()` and `getNumberType()`.

## Limitations

- Instances of this class are not synchronized for multi-threading. Synchronization, if needed, is caller's responsibility.
- Serialized objects of this class are not guaranteed to be compatible with future Apache SIS releases. Serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Apache SIS. For long term storage, use `XML` instead.

- ## Constructor Details

  - ### DefaultTelephone

    public DefaultTelephone()
    Constructs a default telephone.

  - ### DefaultTelephone

    public DefaultTelephone(Telephone 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.
    See Also:
      - `castOrCopy(Telephone)`

- ## Method Details

  - ### castOrCopy

    public static DefaultTelephone castOrCopy(Telephone 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 `DefaultTelephone`, then it is returned unchanged.
    - Otherwise a new `DefaultTelephone` 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.

  - ### getNumber

    @UML(identifier="number", obligation=MANDATORY, specification=ISO_19115) public String getNumber()
    Returns the telephone number by which individuals can contact responsible organization or individual.
    Returns:
      telephone number by which individuals can contact responsible organization or individual.
    Since:
      0.5

  - ### setNumber

    public void setNumber(String newValue)
    Sets the telephone number by which individuals can contact responsible organization or individual.
    Parameters:
      `newValue` - the new telephone number by which individuals can contact responsible organization or individual.
    Since:
      0.5

  - ### getNumberType

    @UML(identifier="numberType", obligation=OPTIONAL, specification=ISO_19115) public CodeList<?> getNumberType()
    Returns the type of telephone number, or `null` if none. If non-null, the type can be `"VOICE"`, `"FACSIMILE"` or `"SMS"`.
    Upcoming API change — specialization
    The return type will be changed to the `TelephoneType` code list when GeoAPI will provide it (tentatively in GeoAPI 3.1).
    Returns:
      type of telephone number, or `null` if none.
    Since:
      0.5

  - ### setNumberType

    public void setNumberType(CodeList<?> newValue)
    Sets the type of telephone number. If non-null, the type can only be `"VOICE"`, `"FACSIMILE"` or `"SMS"`.
    Upcoming API change — specialization
    The argument type will be changed to the `TelephoneType` code list when GeoAPI will provide it (tentatively in GeoAPI 3.1). In the meantime, users can define their own code list class as below:

        final class UnsupportedCodeList extends CodeList<UnsupportedCodeList> {
            private static final List<UnsupportedCodeList> VALUES = new ArrayList<UnsupportedCodeList>();

            // Need to declare at least one code list element.
            public static final UnsupportedCodeList MY_CODE_LIST = new UnsupportedCodeList("MY_CODE_LIST");

            private UnsupportedCodeList(String name) {
                super(name, VALUES);
            }

            public static UnsupportedCodeList valueOf(String code) {
                return valueOf(UnsupportedCodeList.class, code);
            }

            @Override
            public UnsupportedCodeList[] family() {
                synchronized (VALUES) {
                    return VALUES.toArray(new UnsupportedCodeList[VALUES.size()]);
                }
            }
        }

    Parameters:
      `newValue` - the new type of telephone number.
