public StandardMetadataFormat ()

Public Methods

public boolean canNodeAppear (String elementName, ImageTypeSpecifier imageType)

Returns true if the element (and the subtree below it) is allowed to appear in a metadata document for an image of the given type, defined by an ImageTypeSpecifier. For example, a metadata document format might contain an element that describes the primary colors of the image, which would not be allowed when writing a grayscale image.

Parameters

elementName	the name of the element being queried.
imageType	an `ImageTypeSpecifier` indicating the type of the image that will be associated with the metadata.

Returns

true if the node is meaningful for images of the given type.
