Constructor Detail

NodeImpl

public NodeImpl()

Method Detail

getStringValueCS

public CharSequence getStringValueCS()

Get the value of the item as a CharSequence. This is in some cases more efficient than the version of the method that returns a String.

Specified by:

getStringValueCS in interface Item<NodeInfo>

Specified by:

getStringValueCS in interface ValueRepresentation<NodeInfo>

Returns:

the string value of the item

See Also:

Item.getStringValue()

getTypeAnnotation

public int getTypeAnnotation()

Get the type annotation of this node, if any

Specified by:

getTypeAnnotation in interface NodeInfo

Returns:

the type annotation, as the integer name code of the type name

getSchemaType

public SchemaType getSchemaType()

Get the type annotation

Specified by:

getSchemaType in interface NodeInfo

Returns:

the type annotation of the base node

getColumnNumber

public int getColumnNumber()

Get the column number of the node. The default implementation returns -1, meaning unknown

Specified by:

getColumnNumber in interface SourceLocator

Specified by:

getColumnNumber in interface NodeInfo

Returns:

the column number of the node in its original source document; or -1 if not available

getPublicId

public String getPublicId()

Get the public identifier of the document entity containing this node. The default implementation returns null, meaning unknown

Specified by:

getPublicId in interface SourceLocator

getDocumentNumber

public long getDocumentNumber()

Get the document number of the document containing this node. For a free-standing orphan node, just return the hashcode.

Specified by:

getDocumentNumber in interface NodeInfo

Returns:

the document number of the document containing this node

getSiblingPosition

public final int getSiblingPosition()

Get the index position of this node among its siblings (starting from 0)

Specified by:

getSiblingPosition in interface SiblingCountingNode

Returns:

0 for the first child, 1 for the second child, etc. Returns -1 for a node that has been deleted.

setSiblingPosition

protected final void setSiblingPosition(int index)

Set the index position. For internal use only

Parameters:

index - the position of the node among its siblings, counting from zero.

getTypedValue

public SequenceIterator<? extends AtomicValue> getTypedValue()
                                                      throws XPathException

Get the typed value of this node. If there is no type annotation, we return the string value, as an instance of xs:untypedAtomic

Specified by:

getTypedValue in interface Item<NodeInfo>

Returns:

an iterator over the items in the typed value of the node or atomic value. The items returned by this iterator will always be atomic values.

Throws:

XPathException - where no typed value is available, for example in the case of an element with complex content

atomize

public Value atomize()
              throws XPathException

Get the typed value. The result of this method will always be consistent with the method Item.getTypedValue(). However, this method is often more convenient and may be more efficient, especially in the common case where the value is expected to be a singleton.

Specified by:

atomize in interface NodeInfo

Returns:

the typed value. If requireSingleton is set to true, the result will always be an AtomicValue. In other cases it may be a Value representing a sequence whose items are atomic values.

Throws:

XPathException - if the node has no typed value, for example if it is an element node with element-only content

Since:

8.5

setSystemId

public void setSystemId(String uri)

Set the system ID of this node. This method is provided so that a NodeInfo implements the javax.xml.transform.Source interface, allowing a node to be used directly as the Source of a transformation

Specified by:

setSystemId in interface Source

isSameNodeInfo

public boolean isSameNodeInfo(NodeInfo other)

Determine whether this is the same node as another node

Specified by:

isSameNodeInfo in interface NodeInfo

Parameters:

other - the node to be compared with this node

Returns:

true if this Node object and the supplied Node object represent the same node in the tree.

equals

public boolean equals(Object other)

The equals() method compares nodes for identity. It is defined to give the same result as isSameNodeInfo().

Specified by:

equals in interface NodeInfo

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

other - the node to be compared with this node

Returns:

true if this NodeInfo object and the supplied NodeInfo object represent the same node in the tree.

Since:

8.7 Previously, the effect of the equals() method was not defined. Callers should therefore be aware that third party implementations of the NodeInfo interface may not implement the correct semantics. It is safer to use isSameNodeInfo() for this reason. The equals() method has been defined because it is useful in contexts such as a Java Set or HashMap.

getNameCode

public int getNameCode()

Get the nameCode of the node. This is used to locate the name in the NamePool

Specified by:

getNameCode in interface NodeInfo

Returns:

an integer name code, which may be used to obtain the actual node name from the name pool. For unnamed nodes (text nodes, comments, document nodes, and namespace nodes for the default namespace), returns -1.

See Also:

allocate, getFingerprint

getFingerprint

public int getFingerprint()

Get the fingerprint of the node. This is used to compare whether two nodes have equivalent names. Return -1 for a node with no name.

Specified by:

getFingerprint in interface NodeInfo

Returns:

an integer fingerprint; two nodes with the same fingerprint have the same expanded QName. For unnamed nodes (text nodes, comments, document nodes, and namespace nodes for the default namespace), returns -1.

generateId

public void generateId(FastStringBuffer buffer)

Get a character string that uniquely identifies this node

Specified by:

generateId in interface NodeInfo

Parameters:

buffer - a buffer which will be updated to hold a string that uniquely identifies this node, across all documents.

getSystemId

public String getSystemId()

Get the system ID for the node. Default implementation for child nodes.

Specified by:

getSystemId in interface Source

Specified by:

getSystemId in interface SourceLocator

Specified by:

getSystemId in interface NodeInfo

Returns:

the System Identifier of the entity in the source document containing the node, or null if not known or not applicable.

getBaseURI

public String getBaseURI()

Get the base URI for the node. Default implementation for child nodes.

Specified by:

getBaseURI in interface NodeInfo

Returns:

the base URI of the node. This may be null if the base URI is unknown, including the case where the node has no parent.

getSequenceNumber

protected long getSequenceNumber()

Get the node sequence number (in document order). Sequence numbers are monotonic but not consecutive. In the current implementation, parent nodes (elements and roots) have a zero least-significant word, while namespaces, attributes, text nodes, comments, and PIs have the top word the same as their owner and the bottom half reflecting their relative position. This is the default implementation for child nodes. For nodes added by XQuery Update, the sequence number is -1L

Returns:

the sequence number if there is one, or -1L otherwise.

compareOrder

public final int compareOrder(NodeInfo other)

Determine the relative position of this node and another node, in document order. The other node will always be in the same document.

Specified by:

compareOrder in interface NodeInfo

Parameters:

other - The other node, whose position is to be compared with this node

Returns:

-1 if this node precedes the other node, +1 if it follows the other node, or 0 if they are the same node. (In this case, isSameNode() will always return true, and the two nodes will produce the same result for generateId())

public Configuration getConfiguration()

Get the configuration

Specified by:

getConfiguration in interface NodeInfo

Returns:

the Configuration

getNamePool

public NamePool getNamePool()

Get the NamePool

Specified by:

Returns:

either the real parent of this node, or the "imaginary" parent present in the tree implementation to provide a root object for the tree

setRawParent

protected final void setRawParent(net.sf.saxon.tree.linked.ParentNodeImpl parent)

Returns:

the DocumentInfo representing the containing document. If this node is part of a tree that does not have a document node as its root, returns null.

getPhysicalRoot

public DocumentImpl getPhysicalRoot()

Get the physical root of the tree. This may be an imaginary document node: this method should be used only when control information held at the physical root is required

getDeclaredNamespaces

public NamespaceBinding[] getDeclaredNamespaces(NamespaceBinding[] buffer)

Get all namespace undeclarations and undeclarations defined on this element.

Specified by:

getDeclaredNamespaces in interface NodeInfo

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.

hasChildNodes

Returns:

true if this node has been deleted

removeAttribute

public void removeAttribute(NodeInfo 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

Parameters:

attribute - the attribute node to be removed

addAttribute

public void addAttribute(NodeName name,
                         SimpleType attType,
                         CharSequence value,
                         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

Parameters:

name - the name of the new attribute

attType - the type annotation of the new attribute

value - the string value of the new attribute

properties - properties including IS_ID and IS_IDREF properties

Throws:

IllegalStateException - if the element already has an attribute with the given name.

public void rename(NodeName newNameCode)

Rename this node

Specified by:

rename in interface MutableNodeInfo

Parameters:

newNameCode - the NamePool code of the new name

addNamespace

public void addNamespace(NamespaceBinding nscode,
                         boolean inherit)

Description copied from interface: MutableNodeInfo

Add a namespace binding (that is, a namespace node) to this element. This call has no effect if applied to a node other than an element.

Specified by:

addNamespace in interface MutableNodeInfo

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. If the target element currently has a namespace binding with this prefix and a different URI, an exception is raised.

inherit - If true, the new namespace binding will be inherited by any children of the target element that do not already have a namespace binding for the specified prefix, recursively. If false, the new namespace binding will not be inherited.

replace

public void replace(NodeInfo[] replacement,
                    boolean inherit)

Replace this node with a given sequence of nodes. This node is effectively deleted, and the replacement nodes are attached to the parent of this node in its place.

The supplied nodes will become children of this node's parent. 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:

replace in interface MutableNodeInfo

Parameters:

replacement - the replacement nodes. If this node is an attribute, the replacements must also be attributes; if this node is not an attribute, the replacements must not be attributes. source the nodes to be inserted. The implementation determines what implementation classes of node it will accept; this implementation will accept attribute, 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.

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

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if any of the replacement nodes is of the wrong kind. When replacing a child node, the replacement nodes must all be elements, text, comment, or PI nodes; when replacing an attribute, the replacement nodes must all be attributes.

IllegalStateException - if this node is deleted or if it has no parent node. or if two replacement attributes have the same name.

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

Parameters:

source - the nodes to be inserted. The implementation determines what implementation classes of node it will accept; all implementations must accept nodes constructed using the Builder supplied by the newBuilder() method on this object. The supplied nodes may be modified in situ, for example to change their parent property and to add namespace bindings, but this depends on the implementation. The argument array may be modified as a result of the call.

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.

insertSiblings

public void insertSiblings(NodeInfo[] source,
                           boolean before,
                           boolean inherit)

Insert copies of a sequence of nodes as siblings of this node.

This method takes no action unless the target node is an element, text node, comment, or processing instruction, and one that has a parent 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 must use the same data model implementation as the tree into which they will be inserted.

Specified by:

insertSiblings in interface MutableNodeInfo

Parameters:

source - the nodes to be inserted

before - true if the new nodes are to be inserted before the target node; false if they are

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