Class AnyChildNodePattern

java.lang.Object
  net.sf.saxon.pattern.NodeTest
      net.sf.saxon.pattern.AnyChildNodePattern

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, ItemType

public final class AnyChildNodePattern
extends NodeTest

An AnyChildNodePattern is the pattern node(), which matches any node except a root node, an attribute node, or a namespace node: in other words, any node that is the child of another node.

Method Detail

getInstance

public static AnyChildNodePattern getInstance()

Get the singular instance of this class

Returns:

the singular instance

matches

public boolean matches(int nodeKind,
                       int fingerprint,
                       int annotation)

Test whether this node test is satisfied by a given node

Specified by:

matches in class NodeTest

Parameters:

nodeKind - The type of node to be matched

fingerprint - identifies the expanded name of the node to be matched

annotation - The actual content type of the node

matches

public boolean matches(TinyTree tree,
                       int nodeNr)

Test whether this node test is satisfied by a given node on a TinyTree. The node must be a document, element, text, comment, or processing instruction node. This method is provided so that when navigating a TinyTree a node can be rejected without actually instantiating a NodeInfo object.

Overrides:

matches in class NodeTest

Parameters:

tree - the TinyTree containing the node

nodeNr - the number of the node within the TinyTree

Returns:

true if the node matches the NodeTest, otherwise false

matches

public boolean matches(NodeInfo node)

Test whether this node test is satisfied by a given node. This alternative method is used in the case of nodes where calculating the fingerprint is expensive, for example DOM or JDOM nodes.

Overrides:

matches in class NodeTest

Parameters:

node - the node to be matched

getDefaultPriority

public double getDefaultPriority()

Determine the default priority to use if this pattern appears as a match pattern for a template with no explicit priority attribute.

Specified by:

getDefaultPriority in class NodeTest

getNodeKindMask

public int getNodeKindMask()

Get a mask indicating which kinds of nodes this NodeTest can match. This is a combination of bits: 1<

Overrides:

getNodeKindMask in class NodeTest

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns a hash code value for the object.

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object
