Classes for built-in SOAP data types

Description

XML Schema and SOAP uses several built-in types which are extensions or restrictions of the basic R type. These classes represent these XML Schema/SOAP types in R. Precise definitions for the possible values of the data types of each class can be found in the SOAP specification at http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xmlschema-2-20010502/. More informal and intuitive descriptions can be found in tutorials on the Web such as http://www.w3schools.com/schema/schema_dtypes_string.asp.

The token type is essential a string but with white space cleaned up, i.e. multiple spaces reduced to a single space, new lines and control feeds eliminated, as are tabs, and not leading or trailing white space.

A duration is given as a string providing the number of years, months, days and potentially hours, minutes and seconds.

Objects from the Class

Slots

A token is merely a character vector with a pre-processing step that converts its contents to a token.

The duration is not fully implemented at this point. It will resemble the POSIXlt class with fields in a list for the years, months, days, hours, minutes and seconds.

Extends

token: Class "character", from data part. Class "vector", by class "character", distance 2.

duration: extends data.frame and has six fields/columns named years, months, days, hours, minutes, seconds.

Methods

No methods defined with class "duration" in the signature.
