All Implemented Interfaces:
Result, Receiver
Direct Known Subclasses:

public abstract class Builder
extends Object

The abstract Builder class is responsible for taking a stream of SAX events and constructing a Document tree. There is one concrete subclass for each tree implementation.

Builder

public Builder()
create a Builder and initialise variables

Method Detail

setPipelineConfiguration

public void setPipelineConfiguration(PipelineConfiguration pipe)
Description copied from interface: Receiver
Set the pipeline configuration

Specified by:
setPipelineConfiguration in interface Receiver
Parameters:
pipe - the pipeline configuration

getPipelineConfiguration

public PipelineConfiguration getPipelineConfiguration()
Description copied from interface: Receiver
Get the pipeline configuration

Specified by:
getPipelineConfiguration in interface Receiver
Returns:
the pipeline configuration

getConfiguration

public Configuration getConfiguration()
Get the Configuration

Returns:
the Saxon configuration

setSystemId

public void setSystemId(String systemId)
The SystemId is equivalent to the document-uri property defined in the XDM data model. It should be set only in the case of a document that is potentially retrievable via this URI. This means it should not be set in the case of a temporary tree constructed in the course of executing a query or transformation.

Specified by:
setSystemId in interface Result
Specified by:
setSystemId in interface Receiver
Parameters:
systemId - the SystemId, that is, the document-uri.

getSystemId

public String getSystemId()
The SystemId is equivalent to the document-uri property defined in the XDM data model. It should be set only in the case of a document that is potentially retrievable via this URI. This means the value will be null in the case of a temporary tree constructed in the course of executing a query or transformation.

Specified by:
getSystemId in interface Result
Returns:
the SystemId, that is, the document-uri.

setBaseURI

public void setBaseURI(String baseURI)
Set the base URI of the document node of the tree being constructed by this builder

Parameters:
baseURI - the base URI

getBaseURI

public String getBaseURI()
Get the base URI of the document node of the tree being constructed by this builder

Returns:
the base URI

setLineNumbering

public void setLineNumbering(boolean lineNumbering)
Set line numbering on or off

Parameters:
lineNumbering - set to true if line numbers are to be maintained for nodes in the tree being constructed.

setTiming

public void setTiming(boolean on)
Set timing option on or off

Parameters:
on - set to true to turn timing on. This causes the builder to display statistical information about the tree that is constructed. It corresponds to the command line -t option

isTiming

public boolean isTiming()
Get timing option

Returns:
true if timing information has been requested

open

public void open()
          throws XPathException
Description copied from interface: Receiver
Notify the start of the event stream

Specified by:
open in interface Receiver
Throws:
XPathException

close

public void close()
           throws XPathException
Description copied from interface: Receiver
Notify the end of the event stream

Specified by:
close in interface Receiver
Throws:
XPathException

startDocument

public void startDocument(int properties)
                   throws XPathException
Start of a document node. This event is ignored: we simply add the contained elements to the current document

Specified by:
startDocument in interface Receiver
Parameters:
properties - bit-significant integer indicating properties of the document node. The definitions of the bits are in class ReceiverOptions
Throws:
XPathException

endDocument

public void endDocument()
                 throws XPathException
Notify the end of a document node

Specified by:
endDocument in interface Receiver
Throws:
XPathException

getCurrentRoot

public NodeInfo getCurrentRoot()
Get the current root node. This will normally be a document node, but if the root of the tree is an element node, it can be an element.

Returns:
the root of the tree that is currently being built, or that has been most recently built using this builder

build

public static NodeInfo build(Source source,
                             Stripper stripper,
                             Configuration config)
                      throws XPathException
Static method to build a document from any kind of Source object. If the source is already in the form of a tree, it is wrapped as required.

The preferred way to construct a document tree from a Source object is to use the method Configuration.buildDocument(javax.xml.transform.Source).

Parameters:
source - Any javax.xml.transform.Source object
stripper - A stripper object, if whitespace text nodes are to be stripped; otherwise null.
config - The Configuration object
Returns:
the NodeInfo of the start node in the resulting document object.
Throws:
XPathException

build

public static NodeInfo build(Source source,
                             Stripper stripper,
                             PipelineConfiguration pipe)
                      throws XPathException
Static method to build a document from any kind of Source object. If the source is already in the form of a tree, it is wrapped as required.

The preferred way to construct a document tree from a Source object is to use the method Configuration.buildDocument(javax.xml.transform.Source).

Parameters:
source - Any javax.xml.transform.Source object
stripper - A stripper object, if whitespace text nodes are to be stripped; otherwise null.
pipe - The PipelineConfiguration object
Returns:
the NodeInfo of the start node in the resulting document object.
Throws:
XPathException
