Description

Setter methods in ISOMetadata subclasses shall enforce the ISO 19115 restriction. This include:

• Everywhere a @ValueRange annotation is present, add a runtime check for the same range of values.
• For every property flagged as CONDITIONAL for a reason other than union, implement a check for that reason (case-by-case basis). For example:
  • MD_ExtendedElementInformation allows a non-null domainCode only if dataType is CODE_LIST_ELEMENT.
  • MD_ExtendedElementInformation allows a non-null condition only if obligation is CONDITIONAL.
  • MD_LegalConstraints allows a non-empty otherConstraints only if accessConstraintsaccessConstraints or useConstraints is OTHER_RESTRICTIONS.
  • LI_Lineage allows a non-null statement only if the scope level is SERIES.
  • DQ_DataQuality allows non-null reports and lineage only if the scope level is DATASET.
  • DQ_Scope allows a non-null levelDescription only if level is neither DATASET or SERIES.
