Description
| Class Summary | |
|---|---|
| DocumentEventIgnorer | This is a filter that can be added to a pull pipeline to remove START_DOCUMENT and END_DOCUMENT events. |
| ElementNameTracker | This is a filter that can be added to a pull pipeline to remember element names so that they are available immediately after the END_ELEMENT event is notified |
| PullFromIterator | This class delivers any XPath sequence through the pull interface. |
| PullNamespaceReducer | PullNamespaceReducer is a PullFilter responsible for removing duplicate namespace declarations. |
| PullToStax | This class bridges PullProvider events to XMLStreamReader (Stax) events. |
| PullToStax.SourceStreamLocation | Bridge a SAX SourceLocator to a javax.xml.stream.Location |
| PullTracer | PullTracer is a PullFilter that can be inserted into a pull pipeline for diagnostic purposes. |
| TinyTreeWalker | This implementation of the Saxon pull interface starts from a document, element, text, comment, or processing-instruction node in a TinyTree, and returns the events corresponding to that node and its descendants (including their attributes and namespaces). |
| TreeWalker | This implementation of the Saxon pull interface starts from any NodeInfo, and returns the events corresponding to that node and its descendants (including their attributes and namespaces). |
| UnconstructedDocument | A document node whose construction is deferred. |
| UnconstructedElement | An element node whose construction is deferred. |
| UnconstructedParent | This class represents a virtual element node, the result of an element constructor that (in general) hasn't been fully evaluated. |
| VirtualTreeWalker | A virtual tree walker provides a sequence of pull events describing the structure and content of a tree that is conceptually being constructed by expressions in a query or stylesheet; in fact the tree is not necessarily constructed in memory, and exists only as this stream of pull events. |
This package extends the pull API for Saxon that is provided in package net.sf.saxon.pull in Saxon-HE.
It provides features allowing
walking of an existing Saxon tree and delivering events in the same way as a pull parser; it also allows
queries and stylesheets to create lazily-constructed document and element nodes which can then be read
using the pull interface.
The three main kinds of PullProvider supported in this package are:
StaxBridge, which is an interface to a pull-mode XML parser, and is also present in Saxon-HE
TreeWalker, which delivers events based on an in-memory tree. There is one general-purpose TreeWalker that can handle any Saxon tree (any tree that implements the NodeInfo interface) and aother that is optimized to the TinyTree implementation.
VirtualTreeWalker, which delivers events representing the nodes constructed by a stylesheet or query, without actually constructing the nodes in memory. (Note that this doesn't currently work if the constructed nodes need to be schema-validated).
The facility to evaluate the results of a query in pull mode using the PullProvider
interface are largely superseded by the net.sf.saxon.evpull.EventIterator interface, which
is directly or indirectly supported by all expressions.
Some examples of application code using the pull interface with Saxon are provided in the
PullExamples.java file in the samples directory.
