## Interface XSAttributeUse

- All Superinterfaces:
    XSObject

      public interface XSAttributeUse
      extends XSObject

  This interface represents the Attribute Use schema component.

- - ### Method Summary

    Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `java.lang.Object` | `getActualVC()` Deprecated. Use getValueConstraintValue().getActualValue() instead
    `short` | `getActualVCType()` Deprecated. Use getValueConstraintValue().getActualValueType() instead
    `XSObjectList` | `getAnnotations()` A sequence of [annotations] or an empty `XSObjectList`.
    `XSAttributeDeclaration` | `getAttrDeclaration()` [attribute declaration]: provides the attribute declaration itself, which will in turn determine the simple type definition used.
    `short` | `getConstraintType()` Value Constraint: one of default, fixed, or none.
    `java.lang.String` | `getConstraintValue()` Deprecated. Use getValueConstraintValue().getNormalizedValue() instead
    `ShortList` | `getItemValueTypes()` Deprecated. Use getValueConstraintValue().getListValueTypes() instead
    `boolean` | `getRequired()` [required]: determines whether this use of an attribute declaration requires an appropriate attribute information item to be present, or merely allows it.
    `XSValue` | `getValueConstraintValue()` The actual value of the default or fixed value constraint.

- - ### Method Detail

    - #### getRequired

          boolean getRequired()

      [required]: determines whether this use of an attribute declaration requires an appropriate attribute information item to be present, or merely allows it.

    - #### getAttrDeclaration

          XSAttributeDeclaration getAttrDeclaration()

      [attribute declaration]: provides the attribute declaration itself, which will in turn determine the simple type definition used.

    - #### getConstraintType

          short getConstraintType()

      Value Constraint: one of default, fixed, or none.

    - #### getConstraintValue

          java.lang.String getConstraintValue()

      Deprecated. Use getValueConstraintValue().getNormalizedValue() instead
      Value Constraint: The constraint value, otherwise `null`.

    - #### getActualVC

          java.lang.Object getActualVC()
                                       throws XSException

      Deprecated. Use getValueConstraintValue().getActualValue() instead
      Value Constraint: Binding specific actual constraint value or `null` if the value is in error or there is no value constraint.
      Throws:
        `XSException` - NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR: Raised if the implementation does not support this method.

    - #### getActualVCType

          short getActualVCType()
                                throws XSException

      Deprecated. Use getValueConstraintValue().getActualValueType() instead
      The actual constraint value built-in datatype, e.g. `STRING_DT, SHORT_DT`. If the type definition of this value is a list type definition, this method returns `LIST_DT`. If the type definition of this value is a list type definition whose item type is a union type definition, this method returns `LISTOFUNION_DT`. To query the actual constraint value of the list or list of union type definitions use `itemValueTypes`. If the `actualNormalizedValue` is `null`, this method returns `UNAVAILABLE_DT`.
      Throws:
        `XSException` - NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR: Raised if the implementation does not support this method.

    - #### getItemValueTypes

          ShortList getItemValueTypes()
                                      throws XSException

      Deprecated. Use getValueConstraintValue().getListValueTypes() instead
      In the case the actual constraint value represents a list, i.e. the `actualValueType` is `LIST_DT`, the returned array consists of one type kind which represents the itemType. If the actual constraint value represents a list type definition whose item type is a union type definition, i.e. `LISTOFUNION_DT`, for each actual constraint value in the list the array contains the corresponding memberType kind. For examples, see `ItemPSVI.itemValueTypes`.
      Throws:
        `XSException` - NOT_SUPPORTED_ERR: Raised if the implementation does not support this method.

    - #### getValueConstraintValue

          XSValue getValueConstraintValue()

      The actual value of the default or fixed value constraint.

    - #### getAnnotations

          XSObjectList getAnnotations()

      A sequence of [annotations] or an empty `XSObjectList`.
