UnconstructedParent

All Implemented Interfaces:

Source, PullEvent, Item, NodeInfo, Sequence

Direct Known Subclasses:

UnconstructedDocument, UnconstructedElement
```
public abstract class UnconstructedParent
extends Object
implements NodeInfo
```
This class represents a virtual element node, the result of an element constructor that (in general) hasn't been fully evaluated. This is similar to a Closure, except that it is a NodeInfo rather than a Value. The object is capable of materializing the element if it is actually needed, but the aim is to avoid materializing the element wherever possible, at any rate not until its parent element is constructed so that this element can be built in-situ rather than being built as a standalone element and then later copied.
This class is not currently used for elements that require schema validation.

public PullProvider getPuller()
```
    Get a PullProvider that delivers the stream of events corresponding to the tree rooted at this virtual node
    
    Returns:
    the PullProvider for the events in the virtual tree
  - isSameNodeInfo
```
public boolean isSameNodeInfo(NodeInfo other)
```
    Determine whether this is the same node as another node. Note: a.isSameNodeInfo(b) if and only if generateId(a)==generateId(b). This method has the same semantics as isSameNode() in DOM Level 3, but works on Saxon NodeInfo objects rather than DOM Node objects.
    
    Specified by:
    
    isSameNodeInfo in interface NodeInfo
    
    Parameters:
    other - the node to be compared with this node
    
    Returns:
    true if this NodeInfo object and the supplied NodeInfo object represent the same node in the tree.
  - equals
```
public boolean equals(Object other)
```
    The equals() method compares nodes for identity. It is defined to give the same result as isSameNodeInfo().
    
    Specified by:
    
    equals in interface NodeInfo
    
    Overrides:
    
    equals in class Object
    
    Parameters:
    other - the node to be compared with this node
    
    Returns:
    true if this NodeInfo object and the supplied NodeInfo object represent the same node in the tree.
    Since:
    
    8.7 Previously, the effect of the equals() method was not defined. Callers should therefore be aware that third party implementations of the NodeInfo interface may not implement the correct semantics. It is safer to use isSameNodeInfo() for this reason. The equals() method has been defined because it is useful in contexts such as a Java Set or HashMap.
  - hashCode
```
public int hashCode()
```
    The hashCode() method obeys the contract for hashCode(): that is, if two objects are equal (represent the same node) then they must have the same hashCode()
    
    Specified by:
    
    hashCode in interface NodeInfo
    
    Overrides:
    
    hashCode in class Object
    
    Since:
    
    8.7 Previously, the effect of the equals() and hashCode() methods was not defined. Callers should therefore be aware that third party implementations of the NodeInfo interface may not implement the correct semantics.
  - getSystemId
```
public String getSystemId()
```
    Get the System ID for the node (that is, the document URI of the containing document node).
    
    Specified by:
    
    getSystemId in interface Source
    
    Specified by:
    
    getSystemId in interface NodeInfo
    
    Returns:
    the System Identifier of the source document containing the node, or null if not known. Note this is not the same as the base URI: the base URI can be modified by xml:base, but the system ID cannot.
  - getBaseURI
```
public String getBaseURI()
```
    Get the Base URI for the node, that is, the URI used for resolving a relative URI contained in the node. This will be the same as the System ID unless xml:base has been used.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getBaseURI in interface NodeInfo
    
    Returns:
    the base URI of the node
  - getLineNumber
```
public int getLineNumber()
```
    Get line number
    
    Specified by:
    
    getLineNumber in interface NodeInfo

    the line number of the node in its original source document; or -1 if not available
  - getColumnNumber
```
public int getColumnNumber()
```
    Get column number
    
    Specified by:
    
    getColumnNumber in interface NodeInfo
    
    Returns:
    the column number of the node in its original source document; or -1 if not available
  - compareOrder
```
public int compareOrder(NodeInfo other)
```
    Determine the relative position of this node and another node, in document order. The other node will always be in the same document.
    
    Specified by:
    
    compareOrder in interface NodeInfo
    
    Parameters:
    other - The other node, whose position is to be compared with this node
    
    Returns:
    -1 if this node precedes the other node, +1 if it follows the other node, or 0 if they are the same node. (In this case, isSameNode() will always return true, and the two nodes will produce the same result for generateId())
  - comparePosition
```
public int comparePosition(NodeInfo other)
```
    Determine the relative position of this node and another node, in document order, distinguishing whether the first node is a preceding, following, descendant, ancestor, or the same node as the second.
    The other node must always be in the same tree; the effect of calling this method when the two nodes are in different trees is undefined. If either node is a namespace or attribute node, the method should throw UnsupportedOperationException.
    
    Specified by:
    
    comparePosition in interface NodeInfo
    
    Parameters:
    other - The other node, whose position is to be compared with this node
    
    Returns:
    AxisInfo.PRECEDING if this node is on the preceding axis of the other node; AxisInfo.FOLLOWING if it is on the following axis; AxisInfo.ANCESTOR if the first node is an ancestor of the second; AxisInfo.DESCENDANT if the first is a descendant of the second; AxisInfo.SELF if they are the same node.

    UnsupportedOperationException - if either node is an attribute or namespace
    Since:

  - getStringValue
```
public String getStringValue()
```

    getStringValue in interface Item
    
    Specified by:
    
    getStringValue in interface NodeInfo
    
    Returns:
    the string value of the node
    See Also:
    Item.getStringValueCS()
  - getFingerprint
```
public int getFingerprint()
```
    Get fingerprint. The fingerprint is a coded form of the expanded name of the node: two nodes with the same name code have the same namespace URI and the same local name. A fingerprint of -1 should be returned for a node with no name.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getFingerprint in interface NodeInfo

    an integer fingerprint; two nodes with the same fingerprint have the same expanded QName

```
public SchemaType getSchemaType()
```
    Get the type annotation of this node, if any. The type annotation is represented as SchemaType object.
    
    Types derived from a DTD are not reflected in the result of this method.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getSchemaType in interface NodeInfo
    
    Returns:
    For element and attribute nodes: the type annotation derived from schema validation (defaulting to xs:untyped and xs:untypedAtomic in the absence of schema validation). For comments, text nodes, processing instructions, and namespaces: null. For document nodes, either xs:untyped if the document has not been validated, or xs:anyType if it has.
    Since:
    
    9.4

public NamespaceBinding[] getDeclaredNamespaces(NamespaceBinding[] buffer)

    Get all namespace undeclarations and undeclarations defined on this element.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getDeclaredNamespaces in interface NodeInfo

  - setSystemId
```
public void setSystemId(String systemId)
```
    Set the system identifier for this Source.
    
    The system identifier is optional if the source does not get its data from a URL, but it may still be useful to provide one. The application can use a system identifier, for example, to resolve relative URIs and to include in error messages and warnings.

    Parameters:
    systemId - The system identifier as a URL string.

    Returns:
    the string value of the item
    See Also:
