All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, ItemType

public class NodeKindTest
extends NodeTest

NodeTest is an interface that enables a test of whether a node has a particular name and kind. A NodeKindTest matches the node kind only.

Method Detail

makeNodeKindTest

public static NodeTest makeNodeKindTest(int kind)

Make a test for a given kind of node

matches

public boolean matches(int nodeKind,
                       NodeName name,
                       int annotation)

Test whether this node test is satisfied by a given node. This method is only fully supported for a subset of NodeTests, because it doesn't provide all the information needed to evaluate all node tests. In particular (a) it can't be used to evaluate a node test of the form element(N,T) or schema-element(E) where it is necessary to know whether the node is nilled, and (b) it can't be used to evaluate a node test of the form document-node(element(X)). This in practice means that it is used (a) to evaluate the simple node tests found in the XPath 1.0 subset used in XML Schema, and (b) to evaluate node tests where the node kind is known to be an attribute.

Specified by:

matches in class NodeTest

Parameters:

nodeKind - The kind of node to be matched

name - identifies the expanded name of the node to be matched. The value should be null for a node with no name.

annotation - The actual content type of the node

matches

public boolean matches(TinyTree tree,
                       int nodeNr)

Test whether this node test is satisfied by a given node on a TinyTree. The node must be a document, element, text, comment, or processing instruction node. This method is provided so that when navigating a TinyTree a node can be rejected without actually instantiating a NodeInfo object.

Overrides:

matches in class NodeTest

Parameters:

tree - the TinyTree containing the node

nodeNr - the number of the node within the TinyTree

Returns:

true if the node matches the NodeTest, otherwise false

matches

public boolean matches(NodeInfo node)

Test whether this node test is satisfied by a given node. This alternative method is used in the case of nodes where calculating the fingerprint is expensive, for example DOM or JDOM nodes.

Overrides:

matches in class NodeTest

Parameters:

node - the node to be matched

getDefaultPriority

public final double getDefaultPriority()

Determine the default priority of this node test when used on its own as a Pattern

Returns:

the default priority

getPrimitiveType

public int getPrimitiveType()

Determine the types of nodes to which this pattern applies. Used for optimisation.

Specified by:

getPrimitiveType in interface ItemType

Overrides:

getPrimitiveType in class NodeTest

Returns:

the type of node matched by this pattern. e.g. Type.ELEMENT or Type.TEXT

getNodeKindMask

public int getNodeKindMask()

Get a mask indicating which kinds of nodes this NodeTest can match. This is a combination of bits: 1<

Overrides:

getNodeKindMask in class NodeTest

Returns:

a combination of bits: 1<

getContentType

public SchemaType getContentType()

Get the content type allowed by this NodeTest (that is, the type of content allowed). Return AnyType if there are no restrictions.

Overrides:

getContentType in class NodeTest

Returns:

the type annotation that all nodes matching this NodeTest must satisfy

getAtomizedItemType

public AtomicType getAtomizedItemType()

Get the content type allowed by this NodeTest (that is, the type annotation). Return AnyType if there are no restrictions. The default implementation returns AnyType.

Specified by:

getAtomizedItemType in interface ItemType

Overrides:

getAtomizedItemType in class NodeTest

Returns:

the best available item type of the atomic values that will be produced when an item of this type is atomized

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object

toString

public static String toString(int kind)

nodeKindName

public static String nodeKindName(int kind)

Get the name of a node kind

Parameters:

kind - the node kind, for example Type.ELEMENT or Type.ATTRIBUTE

Returns:

the name of the node kind, for example "element" or "attribute"

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns a hash code value for the object.

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

equals

public boolean equals(Object other)

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

Overrides:

equals in class Object
