Constructor Detail

IdentityField

public IdentityField(String xpath)

Creates a new IdentityField.

Parameters:

xpath - the xpath for the IdentityField. Must not be null.

Method Detail

getXPath

public String getXPath()

Returns the XPath of this IdentityField. This value will never be null.

Returns:

the XPath of this IdentityField.

getSelection

public Pattern getSelection()

Get the compiled XPath expression

Returns:

the compiled XPath expression, as a Pattern object

setXPath

public void setXPath(String xpath)

Sets the XPath expression for this Field.

Parameters:

xpath - the XPath expression for this IdentityField. Must not be null.

setEquivalentExpression

public void setEquivalentExpression(Expression exp)

Sets the compiled XPath expression for this Field.

Parameters:

exp - the compiled XPath expression for this IdentityField. Must not be null.

setSelection

public void setSelection(Pattern selection)

Set the compiled XPath expression

Parameters:

selection -

setNamespaceContext

public void setNamespaceContext(NamespaceResolver resolver)

Set the namespace context. This is needed to allow the assertion to be serialized, so that the namespace context can be replicated when it is reloaded.

getNamespaceContext

public NamespaceResolver getNamespaceContext()

Get the namespace context for evaluating the XPath expression

setXPathDefaultNamespace

public void setXPathDefaultNamespace(String uri)

Set the XPath default namespace

Parameters:

uri - the XPath default namespace

getXPathDefaultNamespace

public String getXPathDefaultNamespace()

Get the XPath default namespace

Returns:

the XPath default namespace

getCardinality

public int getCardinality(ExpressionVisitor visitor,
                          ItemType contextItemType)
                   throws XPathException

Get the static cardinality of the expression, that is the number of nodes the field xpath will select for each node selected by the selector xpath.

Returns:

the static cardinality

Throws:

XPathException
