Class OptionsParameter

  • public class OptionsParameter
extends java.lang.Object
    This class implements the rules for options parameters, as used in functions such as parse-json, serialize, json-to-XML, map:merge. It provides a convenient way of ensuring that the options parameter conventions are enforced.

      • processSuppliedOptions

        public java.util.Map<java.lang.String,​Sequence> processSuppliedOptions​(MapItem supplied,
                                                                             XPathContext context)
