public class QNameValue
extends QualifiedNameValue

A QName value. This implements the so-called "triples proposal", in which the prefix is retained as part of the value. The prefix is not used in any operation on a QName other than conversion of the QName to a string.

Constructor Detail

QNameValue

public QNameValue(NamePool namePool,
                  int nameCode)

Constructor

Parameters:

namePool - The name pool containing the specified name code

nameCode - The name code identifying this name in the name pool

QNameValue

public QNameValue(String prefix,
                  String uri,
                  String localName)

Constructor for a QName that is known to be valid. No validation takes place.

Parameters:

prefix - The prefix part of the QName (not used in comparisons). Use "" to represent the default prefix.

uri - The namespace part of the QName. Use "" to represent the non-namespace.

localName - The local part of the QName

QNameValue

public QNameValue(String prefix,
                  String uri,
                  String localName,
                  AtomicType type)

Constructor for a QName that is known to be valid, allowing a user-defined subtype of QName to be specified. No validation takes place.

Parameters:

prefix - The prefix part of the QName (not used in comparisons). Use "" to represent the default prefix (but null is also accepted)

uri - The namespace part of the QName. Use null to represent the non-namespace (but "" is also accepted).

localName - The local part of the QName

QNameValue

public QNameValue(String prefix,
                  String uri,
                  String localName,
                  AtomicType type,
                  NameChecker checker)
           throws XPathException

Constructor. This constructor validates that the local part is a valid NCName.

Parameters:

prefix - The prefix part of the QName (not used in comparisons). Use "" to represent the default prefix (but null is also accepted). Note that the prefix is not checked for lexical correctness, because in most cases it will already have been matched against in-scope namespaces. Where necessary the caller must check the prefix.

uri - The namespace part of the QName. Use null to represent the non-namespace (but "" is also accepted).

localName - The local part of the QName

type - The atomic type, which must be either xs:QName, or a user-defined type derived from xs:QName by restriction

checker - NameChecker used to check the name against XML 1.0 or XML 1.1 rules. Supply null if the name does not need to be checked (the caller asserts that it is known to be valid)

Throws:

XPathException

Method Detail

copy

public AtomicValue copy(AtomicType typeLabel)

Create a copy of this atomic value, with a different type label

Specified by:

copy in class AtomicValue

Parameters:

typeLabel - the type label of the new copy. The caller is responsible for checking that the value actually conforms to this type.

getPrimitiveType

public BuiltInAtomicType getPrimitiveType()

Determine the primitive type of the value. This delivers the same answer as getItemType().getPrimitiveItemType(). The primitive types are the 19 primitive types of XML Schema, plus xs:integer, xs:dayTimeDuration and xs:yearMonthDuration, and xs:untypedAtomic. For external objects, the result is AnyAtomicType.

Specified by:

getPrimitiveType in class AtomicValue

convertPrimitive

public AtomicValue convertPrimitive(BuiltInAtomicType requiredType,
                                    boolean validate,
                                    XPathContext context)

Convert a QName to target data type

Specified by:

convertPrimitive in class AtomicValue

Parameters:

requiredType - an integer identifying the required atomic type

context -

validate - true if validation is required. If set to false, the caller guarantees that the value is valid for the target data type, and that further validation is therefore not required. Note that a validation failure may be reported even if validation was not requested.

Returns:

an AtomicValue, a value of the required type; or an ErrorValue

getComponent

public AtomicValue getComponent(int part)

Get a component. Returns a zero-length string if the namespace-uri component is requested and is not present.

Overrides:

getComponent in class AtomicValue

Parameters:

part - either Component.LOCALNAME or Component.NAMESPACE indicating which component of the value is required

Returns:

either the local name or the namespace URI, in each case as a StringValue

equals

public boolean equals(Object other)

Determine if two QName values are equal. This comparison ignores the prefix part of the value.

Overrides:

equals in class Value

Throws:

ClassCastException - if they are not comparable

IllegalStateException - if the two QNames are in different name pools
