Constructor Detail

UniversalPattern

public UniversalPattern()

Create an UniversalPattern that matches all items

Method Detail

matches

public boolean matches(Item item,
              XPathContext context)

Determine whether this Pattern matches the given Node. This is the main external interface for matching patterns: it sets current() to the node being tested

Specified by:

matches in class Pattern

Parameters:

item - The item to be tested against the Pattern

context - The context in which the match is to take place.

Returns:

true if the item matches the Pattern, false otherwise

getUType

public UType getUType()

Get a UType indicating which kinds of items this Pattern can match.

Specified by:

getUType in class Pattern

Returns:

a UType indicating all the primitive types of item that the pattern can match.

getItemType

public ItemType getItemType()

Get a NodeTest that all the nodes matching this pattern must satisfy

Specified by:

getItemType in class Pattern

Returns:

an ItemType, as specific as possible, which all the matching items satisfy

getFingerprint

public int getFingerprint()

Determine the name fingerprint of nodes to which this pattern applies. Used for optimisation.

Overrides:

getFingerprint in class Pattern

Returns:

A fingerprint that the nodes must match, or -1 if it can match multiple fingerprints

toString

public String toString()

Display the pattern for diagnostics

Overrides:

toString in class Pattern

Returns:

a representation of the expression as a string

export

public void export(ExpressionPresenter presenter)

Description copied from class: Expression

Diagnostic print of expression structure. The abstract expression tree is written to the supplied output destination.

Specified by:

export in class Pattern

Parameters:

presenter - the expression presenter used to display the structure

equals

public boolean equals(Object other)

Determine whether this pattern is the same as another pattern

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

other - the other object

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Hashcode supporting equals()

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

copy

public Pattern copy()

Copy a UniversalPattern. Since there is only one, return the same.

Specified by:

copy in class Pattern

Returns:

the original nodeTest
