Constructor Detail

UnionSelection

public UnionSelection(Selection p1,
                      Selection p2)

Method Detail

matchesElement

public boolean matchesElement(int[] stack,
                              int length,
                              int contextPosition)

Determine whether the selector matches a given element. The element is identified by an array of integers representing the fingerprints of the names of this element and each of its ancestors, in document order (i.e., root element first, matched element last).

Specified by:

matchesElement in interface Selection

Parameters:

stack - the array of name fingerprints

length - the effective length of the array; any items beyond this position are ignored

contextPosition - the position in this array of the context element for the selection.

Returns:

true if the element matches

matchesAttribute

public boolean matchesAttribute(int fingerprint)
                         throws ValidationException

Determine whether a given attribute matches the Selection

Specified by:

matchesAttribute in interface Selection

Returns:

true if it matches, false if it does not match

Throws:

ValidationException - if there is more than one attribute that matches

canMatchAttributes

public boolean canMatchAttributes()

Determine whether the selection can match attribute nodes

Specified by:

canMatchAttributes in interface Selection

canMatchElementContent

public boolean canMatchElementContent()

Determine whether the selection can match element content

Specified by:

canMatchElementContent in interface Selection

typeCheck

public String typeCheck(StaticContext env,
                        ItemType contextItemType)

Check that the selection makes sense in the context of a given ItemType. Return null if the selection is OK, otherwise an error message

Specified by:

typeCheck in interface Selection

getItemType

public ItemType getItemType(TypeHierarchy th)

Return the type of the nodes selected by this selection

Specified by:

getItemType in interface Selection
