Class IntersectionEnumeration

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Closeable, java.lang.AutoCloseable, SequenceIterator
    public class IntersectionEnumeration
extends java.lang.Object
implements SequenceIterator
    An enumeration representing a nodeset that is an intersection of two other NodeSets. This implements the XPath 2.0 operator "intersect".

      Modifier and Type Method Description
      void close()
      Close the iterator.
      void discharge()
      Calling this method instructs the iterator to release any resources it holds, while still remaining able to deliver the remaining items in the sequence.
      NodeInfo next()
      Get the next item in the sequence.

      • IntersectionEnumeration

        public IntersectionEnumeration​(SequenceIterator p1,
                               SequenceIterator p2,
                               java.util.Comparator<? super NodeInfo> comparer)
                        throws XPathException
        Form an enumeration of the intersection of the nodes in two nodesets
        Parameters:
        p1 - the first operand: must be in document order
        p2 - the second operand: must be in document order
        comparer - Comparer to be used for putting nodes in document order
        Throws:
        XPathException - if an error occurs, for example reading from the input sequence

      • next

        public NodeInfo next()
        Description copied from interface: SequenceIterator
        Get the next item in the sequence. This method changes the state of the iterator.
        Specified by:
        next in interface SequenceIterator
        Returns:
        the next item, or null if there are no more items. Once a call on next() has returned null, no further calls should be made. The preferred action for an iterator if subsequent calls on next() are made is to return null again, and all implementations within Saxon follow this rule.

      • close

        public void close()
        Description copied from interface: SequenceIterator
        Close the iterator. This indicates to the supplier of the data that the client does not require any more items to be delivered by the iterator. This may enable the supplier to release resources. After calling close(), no further calls on the iterator should be made; if further calls are made, the effect of such calls is undefined.

        For example, the iterator returned by the unparsed-text-lines() function has a close() method that causes the underlying input stream to be closed, whether or not the file has been read to completion.

        Closing an iterator is important when the data is being "pushed" in another thread. Closing the iterator terminates that thread and means that it needs to do no additional work. Indeed, failing to close the iterator may cause the push thread to hang waiting for the buffer to be emptied.

        Closing an iterator is not necessary if the iterator is read to completion: if a call on SequenceIterator.next() returns null, the iterator will be closed automatically. An explicit call on SequenceIterator.close() is needed only when iteration is abandoned prematurely.

        Specified by:
        close in interface java.lang.AutoCloseable
        Specified by:
        close in interface java.io.Closeable
        Specified by:
        close in interface SequenceIterator

      • discharge

        public void discharge()
        Description copied from interface: SequenceIterator
        Calling this method instructs the iterator to release any resources it holds, while still remaining able to deliver the remaining items in the sequence. This may require the iterator to calculate the rest of the sequence eagerly. The method is called by a client if it anticipates that it might not read the iterator to completion, but it cannot guarantee that SequenceIterator.close() will be called when no more items are needed.
        Specified by:
        discharge in interface SequenceIterator
