public PropertyOptions(int options)
                throws XMPException
```
    Intialization constructor
    
    Parameters:
    
    options - the initialization options

- Method Detail
  - isURI
```
public boolean isURI()
```
    Returns:
    
    Return whether the property value is a URI. It is serialized to RDF using the rdf:resource attribute. Not mandatory for URIs, but considered RDF-savvy.
  - setURI
```
public PropertyOptions setURI(boolean value)
```
    Parameters:
    
    value - the value to set
    
    Returns:
    
    Returns this to enable cascaded options.
  - getHasQualifiers
```
public boolean getHasQualifiers()
```
    Returns:
    
    Return whether the property has qualifiers. These could be an xml:lang attribute, an rdf:type property, or a general qualifier. See the introductory discussion of qualified properties for more information.

    Returns this to enable cascaded options.
  - isQualifier
```
public boolean isQualifier()
```
    Returns:
    
    Return whether this property is a qualifier for some other property. Note that if the qualifier itself has a structured value, this flag is only set for the top node of the qualifier's subtree. Qualifiers may have arbitrary structure, and may even have qualifiers.
