Class NamespaceReducer

net.sf.saxon.event.NamespaceReducer

All Implemented Interfaces:

javax.xml.transform.Result, Receiver, NamespaceResolver

public class NamespaceReducer
extends ProxyReceiver
implements NamespaceResolver

NamespaceReducer is a ProxyReceiver responsible for removing duplicate namespace declarations. It also ensures that an xmlns="" undeclaration is output when necessary. Used on its own, the NamespaceReducer simply eliminates unwanted namespace declarations. It can also be subclassed, in which case the subclass can use the services of the NamespaceReducer to resolve QNames.

The NamespaceReducer also validates namespace-sensitive content.

Constructor Detail

NamespaceReducer

public NamespaceReducer(Receiver next)

Create a NamespaceReducer

Parameters:

next - the Receiver to which events will be passed after namespace reduction

Method Detail

startElement

public void startElement(NodeName elemName,
                         SchemaType type,
                         AttributeMap attributes,
                         NamespaceMap namespaceMap,
                         Location location,
                         int properties)
                  throws XPathException

startElement. This call removes redundant namespace declarations, and possibly adds an xmlns="" undeclaration.

Specified by:

startElement in interface Receiver

Overrides:

startElement in class ProxyReceiver

Parameters:

elemName - the name of the element.

type - the type annotation of the element.

attributes - the attributes of this element

namespaceMap - the in-scope namespaces of this element: generally this is all the in-scope namespaces, without relying on inheriting namespaces from parent elements

location - an object providing information about the module, line, and column where the node originated

properties - bit-significant properties of the element node. If there are no relevant properties, zero is supplied. The definitions of the bits are in class ReceiverOption

Throws:

XPathException - if an error occurs

isDisinheritingNamespaces

public boolean isDisinheritingNamespaces()

Ask whether the namespace reducer is disinheriting namespaces at the current level

Returns:

true if namespaces are being disinherited

endElement

public void endElement()
                throws XPathException

endElement: Discard the namespaces declared on this element.

Specified by:

endElement in interface Receiver

Overrides:

endElement in class ProxyReceiver

Throws:

XPathException - if an error occurs

getURIForPrefix

public NamespaceUri getURIForPrefix(java.lang.String prefix,
                                    boolean useDefault)

Get the namespace URI corresponding to a given prefix. Return null if the prefix is not in scope.

Specified by:

getURIForPrefix in interface NamespaceResolver

Parameters:

prefix - the namespace prefix

useDefault - true if the default namespace is to be used when the prefix is ""

Returns:

the uri for the namespace, or null if the prefix is not in scope

iteratePrefixes

public java.util.Iterator<java.lang.String> iteratePrefixes()

Get an iterator over all the prefixes declared in this namespace context. This will include the default namespace (prefix="") and the XML namespace where appropriate

Specified by:

iteratePrefixes in interface NamespaceResolver

Returns:

an iterator over all the prefixes for which a namespace binding exists, including the zero-length string to represent the null/absent prefix if it is bound
