Class DocumentKey

java.lang.Object
net.sf.saxon.om.DocumentKey

public class DocumentKey extends Object
This class encapsulates a string used as the value of the document-uri() property of a document, together with a normalized representation of the string used for equality comparisons. The idea is that on Windows systems, document URIs are compared using case-blind comparison, but the original case is retained for display purposes.

The package name and version of the document reference are retained, because calls of doc() in different packages, using the same absolute URI, may return different documents, as a result of the treatment of whitespace and type annotations varying.

    • normalizeURI Link icon

      public static String normalizeURI(String uri)
      Normalize the representation of file: URIs to give better equality matching than straight string comparison. The main purpose is (a) to eliminate the distinction between "file:/" and "file:///", and (b) to normalize case in the case of Windows filenames: especially the distinction between "file:/C:" and "file:/c:".

      The result of this function should only be used when comparing two URIs to see if they correspond. The result is otherwise undefined; it might change between releases, and it might even not be a valid URI.

      Parameters:
      uri - the URI to be normalized
      Returns:
      the normalized URI.
