public abstract class LocPathIterator extends PredicatedNodeTest implements Cloneable, DTMIterator, Serializable, PathComponent
This class extends NodeSetDTM, which implements NodeIterator, and fetches nodes one at a time in document order based on a XPath invalid input: '<'a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath#NT-LocationPath>LocationPath.

If setShouldCacheNodes(true) is called, as each node is iterated via nextNode(), the node is also stored in the NodeVector, so that previousNode() can easily be done, except in the case where the LocPathIterator is "owned" by a UnionPathIterator, in which case the UnionPathIterator will cache the nodes.

    • m_lastFetched

      public transient int m_lastFetched
      The last node that was fetched, usually by nextNode.
  • Method Details

    • 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(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

      Parameters:
      xctxt - The XPath execution context.
      Returns:
      An XNodeSet reference that holds this iterator.
      Throws:
      TransformerException

    • asNode

      public int asNode(XPathContext xctxt) throws TransformerException

      Overrides:
      asNode in class Expression
      Parameters:
      xctxt - The XPath runtime context.

      The size of the current cache list.

      true of nextNode has not been called.

    • 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
      Overrides:
      getWhatToShow in class NodeTest
      Returns:

      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.

      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.

      Specified by:

      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.

      A cloned NodeIterator set of the start of the query.
      Throws:

    • 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.

    • 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.
