Interface IResourceCollection

All Known Implementing Classes
ResourceCollection
public interface IResourceCollection

This interface defines a ResourceCollection. This class is used to map the URI of collection into a sequence of Resource objects. It is used to support the fn:collection() and fn:uri-collection() functions.

Method Summary
 string CollectionURI()

Get the URI of the collection

 List<IResource> GetResources(DynamicContext context)

Get the resources in the collection. This supports the fn:collection() function. It is not required that all collections expose a set of resources in this way, or that the resources returned bear any particular relationship to the URIs returned by the getResourceURIs() method for the same collection URI.

 List<string> GetResourceURIs(DynamicContext context)

Get the URIs of the resources in the collection. This supports the fn:uri-collection() function.It is not required that all collections expose a list of URIs in this way, or that the URIs bear any particular relationship to the resources returned by the getResources() method for the same collection URI.The URIs that are returned should be suitable for passing to the registered URIResolver (in the case of XML resources), or the { @link UnparsedTextURIResolver } (in the case of unparsed text and JSON resources), etc.

 

Method Detail

CollectionURI

public string CollectionURI()

Get the URI of the collection

Returns:

The URI as passed to the fn:collection() or fn:uri-collection() function, resolved if it is relative against the static base URI. If the collection() or uri-collection() function was called with no arguments(to get the "default collection") this will be the URI of the default collection registered with the Configuration.

GetResources

public List<IResource> GetResources(DynamicContext context)

Get the resources in the collection. This supports the fn:collection() function. It is not required that all collections expose a set of resources in this way, or that the resources returned bear any particular relationship to the URIs returned by the getResourceURIs() method for the same collection URI.

Parameters:

context - the XPath evaluation context

Returns:

a List over the resources in the collection. This returns objects of class Riesource.

GetResourceURIs

public List<string> GetResourceURIs(DynamicContext context)

Get the URIs of the resources in the collection. This supports the fn:uri-collection() function.It is not required that all collections expose a list of URIs in this way, or that the URIs bear any particular relationship to the resources returned by the getResources() method for the same collection URI.The URIs that are returned should be suitable for passing to the registered URIResolver (in the case of XML resources), or the { @link UnparsedTextURIResolver } (in the case of unparsed text and JSON resources), etc.

Parameters:

context - the XPath evaluation context

Returns:

an iterator over the URIs of the resources in the collection. The URIs are represented as Strings.They should preferably be absolute URIs.
