Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods Deprecated Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`boolean`	`canAddChildNode(String childNodeName)` Returns `true` if this node type allows the addition of a child node called `childNodeName` without specific node type information (that is, given the definition of this parent node type, the child node name is sufficient to determine the intended child node type).
`boolean`	`canAddChildNode(String childNodeName, String nodeTypeName)` Returns `true` if this node type allows the addition of a child node called `childNodeName` of node type `nodeTypeName`.
`boolean`	`canRemoveItem(String itemName)` Deprecated. As of JCR 2.0, clients should use `canRemoveNode(String)` and `canRemoveProperty(String)` instead.
`boolean`	`canRemoveNode(String nodeName)` Returns `true` if removing the child node called `nodeName` is allowed by this node type.
`boolean`	`canRemoveProperty(String propertyName)` Returns `true` if removing the property called `propertyName` is allowed by this node type.
`boolean`	`canSetProperty(String propertyName, Value value)` Returns `true` if setting `propertyName` to `value` is allowed by this node type.

`NodeDefinition[]`	`getChildNodeDefinitions()` Returns an array containing the child node definitions of this node type.
`NodeTypeIterator`	`getDeclaredSubtypes()` Returns the direct subtypes of this node type in the node type inheritance hierarchy, that is, those which actually declared this node type in their list of supertypes.
`NodeType[]`	`getDeclaredSupertypes()` Returns the direct supertypes of this node type in the node type inheritance hierarchy, that is, those actually declared in this node type.
