Field Detail

m_lastFetched

public transient int m_lastFetched

The last node that was fetched, usually by nextNode.

Method Detail

getAnalysisBits

public int getAnalysisBits()

Get the analysis bits for this walker, as defined in the WalkerFactory.

Specified by:

getAnalysisBits in interface PathComponent

Returns:

One of WalkerFactory#BIT_DESCENDANT, etc.

setEnvironment

public void setEnvironment(java.lang.Object environment)

Set the environment in which this iterator operates, which should provide: a node (the context node... same value as "root" defined below) a pair of non-zero positive integers (the context position and the context size) a set of variable bindings a function library the set of namespace declarations in scope for the expression.

At this time the exact implementation of this environment is application dependent. Probably a proper interface will be created fairly soon.

Parameters:

environment - The environment object.

getDTM

public DTM getDTM(int nodeHandle)

Get an instance of a DTM that "owns" a node handle. Since a node iterator may be passed without a DTMManager, this allows the caller to easily get the DTM using just the iterator.

Specified by:

getDTM in interface DTMIterator

Parameters:

nodeHandle - the nodeHandle.

Returns:

a non-null DTM reference.

getDTMManager

public DTMManager getDTMManager()

Get an instance of the DTMManager. Since a node iterator may be passed without a DTMManager, this allows the caller to easily get the DTMManager using just the iterator.

Specified by:

getDTMManager in interface DTMIterator

Returns:

a non-null DTMManager reference.

execute

public XObject execute(XPathContext xctxt)
                throws TransformerException

Execute this iterator, meaning create a clone that can store state, and initialize it for fast execution from the current runtime state. When this is called, no actual query from the current context node is performed.

Parameters:

xctxt - The XPath execution context.

Returns:

An XNodeSet reference that holds this iterator.

Throws:

TransformerException -

Overrides:

execute in class NodeTest

executeCharsToContentHandler

asNode

public int asNode(XPathContext xctxt)
           throws TransformerException

Parameters:

xctxt - The XPath runtime context.

Returns:

the first node out of the nodeset, or DTM.NULL.

Overrides:

asNode in class Expression

bool

public boolean bool(XPathContext xctxt)

Returns:

A value greater than or equal to zero that indicates the next node position to fetch.

setShouldCacheNodes

public void incrementCurrentPos()

Increment the current position in the node set.

size

public int size()

Get the length of the cached nodes.

Note: for the moment at least, this only returns the size of the nodes that have been fetched to date, it doesn't attempt to run to the end to make sure we have found everything. This should be reviewed.

Returns:

item

public int item(int index)

Returns the index th item in the collection. If index is greater than or equal to the number of nodes in the list, this returns null .

setItem

public void setItem(int node,
                    int index)

Sets the node at the specified index of this vector to be the specified node. The previous component at that position is discarded.

The index must be a value greater than or equal to 0 and less than the current size of the vector. The iterator must be in cached mode.

index - Index of where to set the node

getLength

public int getLength()

getLength in interface DTMIterator

Returns:

The number of nodes in the list, always greater or equal to zero.

isFresh

public boolean isFresh()

true of nextNode has not been called.

previousNode

public int previousNode()

Returns the previous node in the set and moves the position of the iterator backwards in the set.

Specified by:

previousNode in interface DTMIterator

Returns:

The previous Node in the set being iterated over, ornull if there are no more members in that set.

getWhatToShow

public int getWhatToShow()

This attribute determines which node types are presented via the iterator. The available set of constants is defined in the NodeFilter interface.

This is somewhat useless at this time, since it doesn't really return information that tells what this iterator will show. It is here only to fullfill the DOM NodeIterator interface.

Specified by:

getWhatToShow in interface DTMIterator

Returns:

For now, always NodeFilter.SHOW_ALL & ~NodeFilter.SHOW_ENTITY_REFERENCE.

Overrides:

getWhatToShow in class NodeTest

See Also:

NodeIterator

getFilter

public DTMFilter getFilter()

The filter used to screen nodes. Not used at this time, this is here only to fullfill the DOM NodeIterator interface.

Returns:

Always null.

See Also:

NodeIterator

getRoot

public int getRoot()

The root node of the Iterator, as specified when it was created.

Specified by:

getRoot in interface DTMIterator

Returns:

The "root" of this iterator, which, in XPath terms, is the node context for this iterator.

getExpandEntityReferences

public boolean getExpandEntityReferences()

The value of this flag determines whether the children of entity reference nodes are visible to the iterator. If false, they will be skipped over.
To produce a view of the document that has entity references expanded and does not expose the entity reference node itself, use the whatToShow flags to hide the entity reference node and set expandEntityReferences to true when creating the iterator. To produce a view of the document that has entity reference nodes but no entity expansion, use the whatToShow flags to show the entity reference node and set expandEntityReferences to false.

Specified by:

getExpandEntityReferences in interface DTMIterator

Returns:

Always true, since entity reference nodes are not visible in the XPath model.

allowDetachToRelease

public void allowDetachToRelease(boolean allowRelease)

Specify if it's OK for detach to release the iterator for reuse.

Specified by:

allowDetachToRelease in interface DTMIterator

Parameters:

allowRelease - true if it is OK for detach to release this iterator for pooling.

detach

public void detach()

Detaches the iterator from the set which it iterated over, releasing any computational resources and placing the iterator in the INVALID state. Afterdetach has been invoked, calls to nextNode orpreviousNode will raise the exception INVALID_STATE_ERR.

Specified by:

detach in interface DTMIterator

reset

public void reset()

Reset the iterator.

Specified by:

reset in interface DTMIterator

cloneWithReset

public DTMIterator cloneWithReset()

Returns:

A cloned NodeIterator set of the start of the query.

Throws:

java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException -

nextNode

public abstract int nextNode()

Returns the next node in the set and advances the position of the iterator in the set. After a NodeIterator is created, the first call to nextNode() returns the first node in the set.

Specified by:

nextNode in interface DTMIterator

Returns:

The next Node in the set being iterated over, or null if there are no more members in that set.

getCurrentNode

public int getCurrentNode()

Return the last fetched node. Needed to support the UnionPathIterator.

Specified by:

getCurrentNode in interface DTMIterator

Returns:

The last fetched node, or null if the last fetch was null.

runTo

public void runTo(int index)

If an index is requested, NodeSetDTM will call this method to run the iterator to the index. By default this sets m_next to the index. If the index argument is -1, this signals that the iterator should be run to the end.

Specified by:

runTo in interface DTMIterator

Parameters:

index - The index to run to, or -1 if the iterator should run to the end.
