Class XPathExecutable


public class XPathExecutable
implements object

An XPathExecutable represents the compiled form of an XPath expression. To evaluate the expression, it must first be loaded to form an XPathSelector.

An XPathExecutable is immutable, and therefore thread-safe. It is simplest to load a new XPathSelector each time the expression is to be evaluated. However, the XPathSelector is serially reusable within a single thread.

An XPathExecutable is created by using one of the Compile methods on the XPathCompiler class.


Method Summary
