Specified by:

addNamespace in interface MutableNodeInfo

Overrides:

addNamespace in class NodeImpl

Parameters:

nscode - The namespace code representing the (prefix, uri) pair of the namespace binding to be added. If the target element already has a namespace binding with this (prefix, uri) pair, the call has no effect.

                         int properties)

Add an attribute to this element node.

If this node is not an element, or if the supplied node is not an attribute, the method takes no action. If the element already has an attribute with this name, the method throws an exception.

This method does not perform any namespace fixup. It is the caller's responsibility to ensure that any namespace prefix used in the name of the attribute (or in its value if it has a namespace-sensitive type) is declared on this element.

Specified by:

addAttribute in interface MutableNodeInfo

Overrides:

addAttribute in class NodeImpl

Parameters:

nameCode - the name of the new attribute

typeCode - the type annotation of the new attribute

Remove an attribute from this element node

If this node is not an element, or if the specified node is not an attribute of this element, this method takes no action.

The attribute object itself becomes unusable; any attempt to use this attribute object, or any other object representing the same node, is likely to result in an exception.

Specified by:

removeAttribute in interface MutableNodeInfo

Overrides:

removeAttribute in class NodeImpl

Parameters:

attribute - the attribute node to be removed

removeTypeAnnotation

public void removeTypeAnnotation()

Remove type information from this node (and its ancestors, recursively). This method implements the upd:removeType() primitive defined in the XQuery Update specification

Get the namespace URI corresponding to a given prefix. Return null if the prefix is not in scope.

Specified by:

getURIForPrefix in interface NamespaceResolver

Parameters:

prefix - the namespace prefix. May be the zero-length string, indicating that there is no prefix. This indicates either the default namespace or the null namespace, depending on the value of useDefault.

useDefault - true if the default namespace is to be used when the prefix is "". If false, the method returns "" when the prefix is "".

Returns:

the uri for the namespace, or null if the prefix is not in scope. The "null namespace" is represented by the pseudo-URI "".

iteratePrefixes

public Iterator iteratePrefixes()

Get an iterator over all the prefixes declared in this namespace context. This will include the default namespace (prefix="") and the XML namespace where appropriate

Specified by:

iteratePrefixes in interface NamespaceResolver

getURICodeForPrefix

public short getURICodeForPrefix(String prefix)
                          throws NamespaceException

Search the NamespaceList for a given prefix, returning the corresponding URI.

Parameters:

prefix - The prefix to be matched. To find the default namespace, supply ""

Returns:

The URI code corresponding to this namespace. If it is an unnamed default namespace, return Namespace.NULL_CODE.

Throws:

NamespaceException - if the prefix has not been declared on this NamespaceList.

getURICodeForPrefixCode

protected short getURICodeForPrefixCode(int prefixCode)

Get the URI bound to a given prefix in the in-scope namespaces of this element

Parameters:

prefixCode - the prefix code as a 16-bit integer

Returns:

the uri code as a 16-bit integer, or -1 if there is no in-scope binding for this prefix

getPrefixForURI

public String getPrefixForURI(String uri)

Search the NamespaceList for a given URI, returning the corresponding prefix.

Parameters:

uri - The URI to be matched.

Returns:

The prefix corresponding to this URI. If not found, return null. If there is more than one prefix matching the URI, the first one found is returned. If the URI matches the default namespace, return an empty string.

getDeclaredNamespaces

public int[] getDeclaredNamespaces(int[] buffer)

Get all namespace undeclarations and undeclarations defined on this element.

Specified by:

getDeclaredNamespaces in interface NodeInfo

Overrides:

getDeclaredNamespaces in class NodeImpl

Parameters:

buffer - If this is non-null, and the result array fits in this buffer, then the result may overwrite the contents of this array, to avoid the cost of allocating a new array on the heap.

Returns:

An array of integers representing the namespace declarations and undeclarations present on this element. For a node other than an element, return null. Otherwise, the returned array is a sequence of namespace codes, whose meaning may be interpreted by reference to the name pool. The top half word of each namespace code represents the prefix, the bottom half represents the URI. If the bottom half is zero, then this is a namespace undeclaration rather than a declaration. The XML namespace is never included in the list. If the supplied array is larger than required, then the first unused entry will be set to -1.

For a node other than an element, the method returns null.

getInScopeNamespaceCodes

public int[] getInScopeNamespaceCodes()

Get the list of in-scope namespaces for this element as an array of namespace codes. (Used by LiteralResultElement)

Returns:

the list of namespaces

fixupInsertedNamespaces

protected void fixupInsertedNamespaces(boolean inherit)

Ensure that a child element being inserted into a tree has the right namespace declarations. Redundant declarations should be removed. If the child is in the null namespace but the parent has a default namespace, xmlns="" should be added. If inherit is false, namespace undeclarations should be added for all namespaces that are declared on the parent but not on the child.

Parameters:

inherit - true if the child is to inherit the inscope namespaces of its new parent

getAttributeList

public AttributeCollection getAttributeList()

Get the attribute list for this element.

Returns:

The attribute list. This will not include any namespace attributes. The attribute names will be in expanded form, with prefixes replaced by URIs

addChild

protected void addChild(NodeImpl node,
                        int index)

Add a child node to this node. For system use only. Note: normalizing adjacent text nodes is the responsibility of the caller.

Parameters:

node - the node to be added as a child of this node. This must be an instance of NodeImpl. It will be modified as a result of this call (by setting its parent property and sibling position)

index - the position where the child is to be added

insertChildren

public void insertChildren(NodeInfo[] source,
                           boolean atStart,
                           boolean inherit)

Insert a sequence of nodes as children of this node.

This method takes no action unless the target node is a document node or element node. It also takes no action in respect of any supplied nodes that are not elements, text nodes, comments, or processing instructions.

The supplied nodes will form the new children. Adjacent text nodes will be merged, and zero-length text nodes removed. The supplied nodes may be modified in situ, for example to change their parent property and to add namespace bindings, or they may be copied, at the discretion of the implementation.

Specified by:

insertChildren in interface MutableNodeInfo

Overrides:

insertChildren in class NodeImpl

Parameters:

source - the nodes to be inserted. The implementation determines what implementation classes of node it will accept; this implementation will accept text, comment, and processing instruction nodes belonging to any implementation, but elements must be instances of ElementImpl. The supplied nodes will be modified in situ, for example to change their parent property and to add namespace bindings, if they are instances of ElementImpl; otherwise they will be copied. If the nodes are copied, then on return the supplied source array will contain the copy rather than the original.

atStart - true if the new nodes are to be inserted before existing children; false if they are to be inserted after existing children

inherit - true if the inserted nodes are to inherit the namespaces of their new parent; false if such namespaces are to be undeclared

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the supplied nodes use a node implementation that this implementation does not accept.

insertChildrenAt

protected void insertChildrenAt(NodeInfo[] source,
                                int index,
                                boolean inherit)

Insert children before or after a given existing child

Parameters:

source - the children to be inserted. We allow any kind of text, comment, or processing instruction node, but element nodes must be instances of this NodeInfo implementation.

index - the position before which they are to be inserted: 0 indicates insertion before the first child, 1 insertion before the second child, and so on.

inherit - true if the inserted nodes are to inherit the namespaces that are in-scope for their new parent; false if such namespaces should be undeclared on the children

replaceChildrenAt

protected void replaceChildrenAt(NodeInfo[] source,
                                 int index,

Replace child at a given index by new children

Parameters:

source - the children to be inserted

index - the position at which they are to be inserted: 0 indicates replacement of the first child, replacement of the second child, and so on. The effect is undefined if index is out of range
