Constructor Detail

XPathException

public XPathException(String message)

Create an XPathException with an error message

Parameters:

message - the message explaining what is wrong. This should not include location information.

XPathException

public XPathException(Throwable err)

Create an XPathException that wraps another exception

Parameters:

err - the wrapped error or exception

XPathException

public XPathException(String message,
                      Throwable err)

Create an XPathException that supplies an error message and wraps an underlying exception

Parameters:

message - the error message (which should generally explain what Saxon was doing when the underlying exception occurred)

err - the underlying exception (the cause of this exception)

XPathException

public XPathException(String message,
                      SourceLocator loc)

Create an XPathException that supplies an error message and supplies location information

Parameters:

message - the error message

loc - indicates where in the user-written query or stylesheet (or sometimes in a source document) the error occurred

XPathException

public XPathException(String message,
                      SourceLocator loc,
                      Throwable err)

Create an XPathException that supplies an error message and wraps an underlying exception and supplies location information

Parameters:

message - the error message (which should generally explain what Saxon was doing when the underlying exception occurred)

loc - indicates where in the user-written query or stylesheet (or sometimes in a source document) the error occurred

err - the underlying exception (the cause of this exception)

XPathException

public XPathException(String message,
                      String errorCode)

Create an XPathException that supplies an error message and an error code

Parameters:

message - the error message

errorCode - the error code - an eight-character code, which is taken to be in the standard system error code namespace

XPathException

public XPathException(String message,
                      String errorCode,
                      XPathContext context)

Create an XPathException that supplies an error message and an error code and provides the dynamic context

Parameters:

message - the error message

errorCode - the error code - an eight-character code, which is taken to be in the standard system error code namespace

context - the dynamic evaluation context

Method Detail

makeXPathException

public static XPathException makeXPathException(TransformerException err)

Create an XPathException from a JAXP TransformerException. If the TransformerException is an XPathException, or if its cause is an XPathException, that XPathException is returned unchanged; otherwise the TransformerException is wrapped.

Parameters:

err - the supplied JAXP TransformerException

Returns:

an XPathException obtained from the supplied TransformerException

makeStatic

public XPathException makeStatic()

Force an exception to a static error

Returns:

this exception, marked as a static error

setXPathContext

public void setXPathContext(XPathContext context)

Set dynamic context information in the exception object

Parameters:

context - the dynamic context at the time the exception occurred

getXPathContext

public XPathContext getXPathContext()

Get the dynamic context at the time the exception occurred

Returns:

the dynamic context if known; otherwise null

setIsStaticError

public void setIsStaticError(boolean is)

Mark this exception to indicate that it represents (or does not represent) a static error

Parameters:

is - true if this exception is a static error

isStaticError

public boolean isStaticError()

Ask whether this exception represents a static error

Returns:

true if this exception is a static error

setIsTypeError

public void setIsTypeError(boolean is)

Mark this exception to indicate that it represents (or does not represent) a type error

Parameters:

is - true if this exception is a type error

isTypeError

public boolean isTypeError()

Ask whether this exception represents a type error

Returns:

true if this exception is a type error

setIsGlobalError

public void setIsGlobalError(boolean is)

Mark this exception to indicate that it originated while evaluating a global variable reference, and is therefore to be reported regardless of the try/catch context surrounding the variable reference

Parameters:

setErrorCodeQName

public void setErrorCodeQName(StructuredQName code)

Set the error code. The error code is a QName; this method sets both parts of the name.
